A few weeks ago I was "dating" a guy in my ward. I really enjoyed spending time with him - we always did fun things together - Hostess raids, nerf dart attacks on his roommates, movie nights, just fun stuff! Eventually we kind of dissolved. I should have known it was coming from the start because we never really talked - all along we were just friends/cuddle buddies. When we actually talked about everything I wasn't upset about just being friends though. The only time I was upset about the situation was during the day when I had nothing else to think about - I thought about him. I thought about other girls in the ward going after him and vice versa. I was jealous when I had those thoughts, but everytime I would actually see him I was happy to call him my friend.
We're more like Harry and Hermione
Yesterday I saw him with his new girlfriend - someone not in the ward. I was happy for him! The girl he was with looked very nice - looked like someone who has and will make him happy. I know it sounds weird, but I am genuinely happy for him and I hope he'll be happy with her.
I know I'm better off without him. I wouldn't make him happy, and I've realized he wouldn't have made me happy. It's not just about having any boyfriend - there really needs to be some chemistry going on. For us, there never was. I wanted him because I liked the idea of dating someone, not neccessarily dating him.
I didn't get the guy, but I am so much better off and so much happier!
I love how positive you are!!
ReplyDeleteHe wasn't the one, I like the saying "When you know, you know". I believe you just know from the start. Let me know when you wanna go to the airport, hahaha! That's such a good idea :)
I can't wait unti Thursday!! Love you.
