Mia worries that she'll end up alone because there just weren't enough boys in the town. After all her girlfriends were married, she met Howie. After dating a few months, he asked her to marry him when he completed his military service and she agreed, but wasn't sure it was because she loved him or because she was afraid of being alone for the rest of her life. Then while Howie is serving out his term, Mia feels a thrill she's never experienced before when she meets Gary.
