So what is new and official in my life.....
I'll tell you what.... Robert is not necessarily new, but he and I are official!
DETAILS (for all you who think this is nuts and out of the blue, I assure you it’s not...)
Ok now for details (since we females seem to thrive on them)...
So well back before I started at BBC I used to go visit the Green's (Brent and Kim) At BBC. (Yes Brent used to live in
When I came to BBC (Fall of 2002, Brent and I were back to friends and no longer ‘dating’) Robert was still there and was in the same program, that is when we started our tradition of sitting together in every class we had (which we upheld for four years). For me it was just a small crush and for him…. Well I guess he is the one who can answer that. Then BBC life progressed and Robert liked a certain good friend of mine (Courtney, whom I still love) and I liked Jon…. Funny thing is Robert and I even talked these two people to each other all the time. From then on Robert was one of my closest guy friends in every circumstance at school...we later on both began more serious relationships with others.
Fast-forward three years of friendship……
Later on at BBC our serious relationships came to an end… Robert was one of the many to comfort me through this time. We had communicated through BBC years as friends (he even used me as the ‘girl’ to find out the scoop on his crushes…lol) and through internship via. lots of e-mails. Then I saw him at Rachel's wedding (
Although I was scared to 'like' again and still had a lot of healing....
Robert was my secret crush. tehehe. So from then on we e-mailed, I was going back to BBC that January of 2006 and through an enormous amount of healing Robert and I just became closer friends as we once were our freshman year. I did not see him again (since he oh so conveniently dodged me when he came to visit the school) until Graduation. So from Grad…. Robert and five other guys had planned a baseball trip and my house became apart of the plan. This was funny because before Grad I had not seen him since December (when I visited PIWC a second time, oh yea what crazy nut-case goes from Ontario and flies to Presque Isle twice in less than three months)... and well it was just a secret crush via e-mail. Easy and safe. And we had not even e-mailed much or at all through spring semester....
Right after Grad our e-mailing picked up again…. so did text messaging and we were all of the sudden talking non stop (MSN, Texting, E-mails). They came to the game (6 boys) and it was such a fun time (Note: previous post where the Jays won against the Sox twice).
When Robert left... that was it, nothing had been said.... all was the same... and we went back to chatting until that Thursday night of June 1st.... when we both stayed up until 7am talking about everything... our feelings, our friends, if this could work, what to do next, all of it... the greatest part was we talked about it all in a radio station allegory…. (don’t ask) So that is where it begun....
Speed up until June 20th…when Robert had planned to come and visit my house again….
Last Tuesday I had a spontaneous thought and got on a plane and flew to
So then we drove back to my house 6 hours away together. I was a nervous wreck! But it was a wonderful ride; also we are now officially started dating! Wednesday I had to work at
YAYAY I wanted to tell everyone in person, but that just was not possible. So that is my life as of now, I am working at the golf course and loving it. I work almost 50 hours a week so generally I am very tired. My social life consists of co-workers, I am enjoying having the opportunity for non-Christian friends again, and the witnessing is amazing. They joke with me about being Christian lots but also have serious questions too about Christianity. It is amazing... but I do miss my internship and being at church 100% of the time.
