So you were playing on a social networking site and a guy friend from your home towm Instant messages you. Now he lives in another state far away. So You decide that since he really doesn't know you all that well and he is far away; You are going to spill your guts and tell him exactly how you feel about life. You commince to tell him how you lost your job six months ago, that you believe in marriage and how much you are tired of being alone. After all, You're never gonna see him anyway. So who cares what he thinks about your situation. You just wanted someone to dump on because after all you are alone and besides God, there is noone around to listen to your concerns. You are just glad you could get it out. It was therapy for the day. Now you are suprised at his response. "Why don't you relocate to Atlanta?" Why would I relocate there? I am single, And Atlanta is full of gay men. I do not want to be single all of my life." he replies, "I live in Atlanta and I am not gay." out of idnorance to his advances, You respond, " Well, I don't want to be alone." So then he decides to be clearer yet sarcastic, "Now is it possible for you to be alone. I want you to move Atlanta because this is where I live. I feel the same way you feel."
Okay ladies and gentlemen so let's cut the chase, This story happened to me. Or should I say is happening to me. That first conversation went on for 5 1/2 hours via instant messaging. The next day 4 1/2 hours. It was really sweet and we had so much to talk about. I was amazed at the things he remembered about me from my youth and our school days. I never knew he was taking notice of me. Now, although we are from the same home town, we haven't seen each other for tweleve years. Tweleve years ago is our latest face to face encounter with each other. I was not a beleiver in internet romances before now. He just might make a believer out of me as long as he continues to communicate well enough. So, This has been going on for four months now. We have several mutual friends, and our families know each other.
He says he is ready to settle down and get married. He has been consistent for the past four months. He is feeling comfortable with me because our beliefs and morals are in alignment. Our goals and out look on life are parallel. To put it in his words"We are the same!" I always saw that he was a gentleman and the very confident, out going side of him. Now, since we are communicating on a more intimate level; I see the side of him that is sometimes a bit shy. I am noticing his disciplines, and the core things that truly matter to him. If I had not already known him, I would not be writing this blog because there would be no relationship to talk about. Yes, I can be a bit of a prude. Taking a chance on someone I just met would be toooo many unknowns for me. But, this is different, I have known him since child hood. Just one problem! How do I do this and not compromise my morals? I don't want to shack or fall into premarital sex. Well, I didn't say anything to him about it. He contacted me and he brought up the subject. He said, "I want my wife, it's not about sex. We have plenty of time for that. We will plan everything out and you can have your own room. Make yourself at home." I said all of that to say, I decided that I am going to take a chance. I am relocating. Just maybe I will gain my husband, a life long lOVE and a new job!
