At that point in their love lives, both Lisa and Jim were coming out of their previous marriages and were not really active on the dating scene. According to Lisa, she was initially reluctant to meet Jim until she was reminded by her friend that she had been alone for too long. However, when she finally agreed, she had to set down some ground rules.
The deal was that the couple would just meet for a drink and Jim would have to ask Lisa out the same evening if he happens to like her. On Lisa’s part, she will have to accept the offer if she liked him in return.
It happened that the duo hit it off immediately, as they started sharing life experiences which revealed that they had a lot in common. At the end of their first date, Lisa Cadette Detwiler said she actually thought she wouldn’t be seeing Crammer again, as his job leads him to meet a lot of incredible women every day. However, the next morning at four, she got an email from him that read, “Sometimes in life people who are special need to be told they are special.”
Their next date happened a couple of weeks later and according to Jim, he was desperate to get into a serious relationship with Lisa for fear that she may meet another man. His major reason for clinging onto her was that Lisa has been through a lot in life and any woman who could survive such hardship would be apt in handling “the train wreck that is Jim Cramer”.
