She went to a Catholic high school.

Her name, by the way, was Eileen.

Talk about genetically incapable of keeping a secret: Oh, boy, after going out on a date with me, she would tell her sister everything we did.....in a romantic way. She wouild tell her every move I made.

As far a grudges go, I would say yes but Italians are also very good at holding grudges, especially with relatives.
Here are your points as they relate to me:

1. When I was a young man I dated a very lovely Irish girl.
...True
2. She had one brother who was a cop and another one was studying to become a priest. She became a nurse.
...False, she didn't have a brother. She didn't become a nurse
3. She went to a Catholic high school.
...True but different school. I went to an all male Military School HS.
4. Her name, by the way, was Eileen.
...True, me too, but I married her!
5. Talk about genetically incapable of keeping a secret: Oh, boy, after going out on a date with me, she would tell her sister everything we did.....in a romantic way. She wouild tell her every move I made.
...False. Would you expect me to tell you and get a black eye even if it were true? The Villages Florida
6. As far a grudges go, I would say yes but Italians are also very good at holding grudges, especially with relatives
...Oh how true! Happened on both my mothers and fathers side of the family!
