I'm dating again. I never thought I'd be in a relationship like this after I got married, but here I am and I love it...and I'm in love! I'm excited before every date, a little nervous, giddy, anticipating seeing him again, trying to look my best. I think about him all the time, and I practically count the minutes between times when I get to see him. I love holding his hand. He's always so warm and his skin is so soft. He's not much of a conversationalist, but that's o.k. because he's a great listener! And he has great facial expressions when I talk to him. He's quite the charmer, a little flirty, kind of a ladies' man, but I know he really loves me the most. I think he's playing hard to get, because he never looks me in the eye, but that just adds to his mystery. He's completely and utterly adorable! I almost can't keep my hands off of him! I think things are getting pretty serious. We've been talking a lot about him coming to live with me. We're not totally ready for that yet, but I know that day is coming. I just can't help the way I feel! He gives me butterflies and makes me smile! He's made me cry a few times, but I can't help but forgive him. One look at that pouty face and I'm a goner. We have a late night rendezvous tonight. I can't wait! Maybe tonight will be the night that he finally gazes longingly into my eyes. And if he doesn't, well, that's o.k. too; because I'm so smitten with him that I'm in this relationship for the long run. I'm not lettin' this one get away!
Oh Bethany -- I am so touched by this -- it is beautiful. I want to say "I'm in love with him too, and I haven't even met him!" I know I'm just one of his many long-distance admirers. I also know that in this contest, you win his heart by a million miles.
ReplyDeletewhat an awesome post!!!! That was amazing......made me smile!!!
ReplyDeleteBethany, this is so sweet! I had thought before that I bet you never stop thinking about him when you are not with him. What a precious little guy he is, and what a wonderful mom you are!
