So this guy in the ward has been complimenting me on my dresses through the summer. I was always say kindly thank you and move along. The young man is 'odd' he plays world of war craft and has guild meetings for it. I don't think I've ever actually seen his eyes. He has glasses that are always dark. He's really just....odd. So anyway he called me tonight asking for a date for friday night. Fortunately for me I'm working but I should give him just one date. I haven't called him back yet but will do in the next couple of days.
On the other hand, Seth, another guy in the ward that I've had a friendship with this last year. We've always played the awkward game with each other. But the last couple of weeks our friendship has changed. We're actually being normal around each other and able to not make things awkward. Tonight when I needed a hug I was sitting on the lawn in front of the complex. He saw me and asked how things were when I said I needed a hug he came running and practically tackled me. For a moment I was engulfed in his arms and I felt ever so safe. It was only for a moment but it felt like I was being hugged by dad or one of my grandfathers. It was nice to feel that again when I'm not able to be in their arms. That's what I want in a man that I marry. I'm not saying that Seth is that man but someone who can give me that comfort at a moments notice and make me feel that safe is what I need and want.
So all in one day there have been reminders that the 'odd' are still there as are the great and normal that can fill my life with happiness. I'm striving for the great that can fill my life with happiness. :)
