Eyes Wide Shut

It was a bet, with his buddies at the other end of the bar, that he couldn't resist, "Pick her up in one shot!"
They went home that night and spent the next 11 years together, really together.
She stuck by him through thick and thin, mostly thin.
There were times that any woman, with good common sense, would just walk away.
It was like he was trying her patience, testing her mettle.
Eyes wide shut, finally, he would marry her.
