Oh, I remembered I do actually have an AFS (which I didn't realise at the time was an AFS... But good god.)
So, I went on a date with a girl and it was almost certain we were going to become a couple (as we met through a mutual friend). On this date, we asked eachother questions from the internet. General questions like 'Would you fight 100 duck-sized horses or one horse-sized duck?'. The generic questions. I also found out about siblings, she had 2 brothers. The youngest one was healthy, and the older one had autism.
Anyway, the question 'What is your least favourite vegetable? came up.
So, my clever, witty and crude-humoured self answered "the ones in wheelchairs". She laughs, I think, "great, well done Andonis".
Fast forward a couple of weeks, we get onto family again, and she opens up and then tells me her brother's autism is so bad that he is basically 'in a vegetative state' and pretty much unresponsive. So you can imagine my thoughts when I flashbacked to that joke.
Fair to say, her and I lasted a month.
