Love Letter Unravels Man’s 40 Years of Hidden Affection For A Woman

Jerry introduced himself in the letter that he worked hard to fit in a small card that came along with a bouquet of flowers.

“I will be visiting the weekend of May 15th, and I’m wondering if we could meet for a coffee? I am, however, sensitive to the recent loss of your husband. If this approach comes too soon, I will ­understand—and wait another 40 years,” Jerry wrote in his love letter for Georgene.

He waited for her reply each day when he was in Washington. Lucky for him, she said “yes” to meet him.

For almost 40 years of waiting, Jerry has finally had his first date with the woman who owns his affection for several decades.
