A Samurai Sandwich Please

“A Samurai sandwich please.” The waitress looked perplexed but took the order anyway because she did not want to ask. “Perfect!” the customer said. Three more times that month he came in for a sandpiper sandwich, a taffeta sandwich, and a typhoon sandwich. The waitress brought him the sandwich of the day all three times. “Exactly what I wanted!” he said. They began dating the next month, and swiftly fell in love. “I knew I’d never find another man this easy to please,” she told her bridesmaids. “So I decided to marry him.” “I didn’t care what she brought me,” he told his groomsmen. “As long as it was her that brought it.”

I was thinking of all of those couples where the one knows almost immediately, and will hang around until the other one "gets it".
