How I Met My Husband

For most of the story, the reader is led on to think that Chris Watters will be Edie's husband. He is the new guy in town and a lot of the events revolve around the arrival of Chris Watters. It is not until Edie waits for Chris' letter every day that the reader is introduced to Carmichael. He is dependable and easy to talk to. Edie can talk to him and depend on him. He will be there with the mail every day at around the same time. Chris was not anything like Carmichael. He just showed up and he was intimidating to Edie. She was not very comfortable around him. He was also a lot older than she was. The surprise ending was appropriate. Chris Watters did not seem like that great of a guy. He would say things like "It's a good thing I'm used to shy ladies." or he couldn't take people up for plane rides because he had some ladies over. He did not seem to have much respect for women.
