One month ago a childhood friend came to me. "I want to take you on a date." I hemmed and hawed, but eventually replied, "I will give you one date, just one." He replied, "That's all I am asking."
Dinner and a movie with slight undertones of awkwardness came and went. A few days later he said to me, "I want to date you." I thought and prayed, listened to my heart. Replied to his anxious heart, "I will date you, let you pursue me, but I will not be your girlfriend just yet." He answered, "That's all I am asking."
Over the next few weeks we learned about our love of building things together. We also became addicted to Ben & Jerry's ice cream and Salsa Verde. Legos, puzzles, grocery store trips, LOST...somewhere in there we found something special.
Late one night my phone rang. "Will you be my girlfriend?" "Yes," I immediately replied. "I have no idea where this will go, but I want to be your girlfriend."
"That's all I am asking."
Happy one month since our first date, Dev! You make me smile and feel so loved. Thanks for being patient with my heart. I can't wait to see where this goes! Go Rockies!
