Achtung, diese Geschichte ist wie Achterbahnfahren: Man weiß nie genau, was einen erwartet. Man rast nur so los, hat Angst und gleichzeitig Spaß. Es ist unwahrscheinlich, dass diese Geschichte von anderen „How I met your mother“ Stories noch übertroffen werden kann.
1. Die Geschichte beginnt…
2. … tragisch.
I always took flowers and my mum visited a lot and she always took flowers and my grandparents were still alive then and they always took flowers. My dad’s grave frequently resembled a solid third place at the Chelsea Flower Show.

3. Irgendwie kam das Grab daneben ihm seltsam vor: Der Mann war mit 37 Jahren an Weihnachten gestorben und bekam nie Blumen.
Nice but I felt bad for the guy buried next to my dad. He NEVER had flowers. Died on Christmas Day aged 37, no one left him flowers and now there’s a pop-up florist in the grave next door. So I started buying him flowers. I STARTED BUYING FLOWERS FOR A DECEASED MAN I’D NEVER MET.

4. Er bringt dem Grab also regelmäßig Blumen und fängt an, eine Bindung zu dem Verstorbenen aufzubauen.
I did this for quite some time, but I never mentioned it to anyone. It was a little private joke with myself, I was making the world a better place one bunch of flowers at a time. I know it sounds weird but I came to think of him as a friend.

5. Eines Tages entschließt er sich, der Identität und Geschichte des Mannes auf den Grund zu gehen.
I wondered if there was a hidden connection between us, something secretly drawing me to him. Maybe we went to the same school, played for the same football club or whatever. So I googled his name, and ten seconds later I found him.

6. Um eine völlig unerwartete Entdeckung zu machen: Der Mann hat seine Frau und ihre Eltern an jenem Weihnachtstag ermordet und sprang dann vor einen Zug.
His wife didn’t leave him flowers BECAUSE HE’D MURDERED HER. ON CHRISTMAS DAY. After he murdered his wife, he murdered her parents too. And after that he jumped in front of the only train going through Balcombe tunnel that Christmas night.

7. Deswegen hat ihm keiner Blumen dagelassen.
THAT was why no one ever left him flowers. No one except me, of course. I left him flowers. I left him flowers every couple of weeks. Every couple of weeks FOR TWO AND A HALF YEARS.

8. Und er fühlt sich schlecht gegenüber der Frau und den Eltern. Also möchte er sich irgendwie bei ihnen entschuldigen…
I felt terrible for his wife and her parents. Now, I wasn’t going to leave them flowers every couple of weeks for two and a half years but I did feel like I owed them some sort of apology.

9. So fährt er zu dem Grab der ermordeten Familie.
I found out where they were buried, bought flowers and drove to the cemetery. As I was standing at their graves mumbling apologies, a woman appeared behind me. She wanted to know who I was and why I was leaving flowers for her aunt and grandparents. AWKWARD.

10. Er trifft die Nichte der Verstorbenen und erklärt, was er am Grab tut. Sie gehen gemeinsam etwas trinken.
I explained and she said ok that’s weird but quite sweet. I said thanks, yes it is a bit weird and oh god I ASKED HER OUT FOR A DRINK. Incredibly, she said yes. Two years later she said yes again when I asked her to marry me because that is how I met my wife.
[END]

11. Und sie lebten glücklich bis an ihr Lebensende.
This has to be a contender for the greatest “how I met my wife” story

12. Ob er jetzt Angst vor Weihnachten hat?
Do either of you live in fear of Christmas Day?

13. Vier Hochzeiten und ein Todesfall, neu verfilmt.
Four funerals and a wedding?

14. Hoffentlich macht er keine Fernsehserie mit neun Staffeln daraus. 😉
Well, I hope you will not take 9 season to explain to your kids : "how I met your mother"
