My college roommate decided to get married when I was completely broke and invited me to the reception. Drowning in debt, I still scraped together a generous cash gift, practically in tears. Then she dumped her childhood sweetheart, the groom, and ran off with another man. So... could I get my gift back? The groom's mother said, "It doesn't matter who he marries. What matters is that the wedding goes on." Right there on the spot, they turned it into a bouquet toss to pick a bride, and casually announced a three-million-dollar wedding fund. The groom was handsome, well-built, and apparently had only ever had one short-lived online relationship. So I took a running leap, and caught that once-in-a-lifetime chance.
