I find myself in an interesting position now. I write a blog about my adventures in the dating world (the weird messages, the WTF were they thinking profiles, the cracked out speed dating events) but now I am a *gasp* GIRLFRIEND (Yeah, it freaks me out too sometimes because I am not use to having someone in my life.)! Oh, and I am dating someone who lives like 125 miles away. This means not only am I adjusting to having someone in my life, but I am also adapting to spending a large portion of my time with the BF in a strange city which I really have never been to (did I mention yet that this city is below the Mason-Dixon Line?!?). We now have a WHOLE new level of adventure, don’t we? Me adjusting to and learning my way around a new city…
A quick intro to the BF:
- he is amazingly sweet (he spoils me which is a huge adjustment for me but can be a jerk at times too)
- he is a hunter (yummmm… dead Bambi!)
- he drives a really nice truck (ahhhhh… the superficial things I notice and that I’m NOT allowed to drive)
- he could pick me up and throw me like a javelin (there are VERY few people I look like a midget next to, but yeah. I look TINY next to him)
- he seems to think my world revolves around him (it sort of does… but not completely. At least not yet)
- He can be brutally honest (something I am not use to and I tend to take EVERYTHING personally)
- He doesn’t smoke (and rides my ass about smoking which is why it has been… 11 days since my last cigarette)
- He is VERY private (This blog will mostly be about the things I do when he is working on Saturdays, with the occasionally trip we take together. There will be no… “Like OMG, he is SUCH an asshole he didn’t get me *fill in object”. If he does something incredibly sweet like all the stuff he did this weekend you guys will have to suffer through me talking about it.)
- He is the type of person that it makes me VERY happy to be able to look him in the eyes and say one thing… “MINE!”
I actually was down to see him last weekend (which it totally sucked having to come home), and since he took off from work we spent the whole weekend together. I would like to say we went all sorts of exciting places but we really didn’t. lol. He suffered through me getting a manicure & pedicure (he took it REALLY well, especially since he was paying for it. Yes. I know I am very spoiled and VERY lucky. He also opens doors), we went to see the Expendables (OMFG! Awesome movie), I got to do to my very first Bass Pro Shop (the sick part is… there is actually stuff in there I’d buy), and we went to one of his friends tattoo shops (I got dropped in amongst people I don’t know which is an ungodly terrifying experience for me, with about 2 ½ minutes warning. Thanks baby. Appreciated. Lol). I'm not too sure how I feel about sharing any more about this weekend.
So the real adventures will begin in like 2 weeks when I will have more of a chance to explore and get pictures…
