Ok wow...

So, things have been taking an interesting turn. For the better though. Two Mondays ago, there was a guy I used to be in the same singles ward as, and he had asked me on a date. I said yes, but I did not expect it to go super well. I thought it'd be ok, but I wasn't expecting it to be amazing. But, holy cow, I was wrong. Like, so, SO wrong. It was probably one of the best dates I'd ever been on, mostly just because I felt so connected to him. Not like, physically, or sexually, but emotionally. I'd never really felt that before. With anyone. Instead of it seeming like it was a first date, it seemed like we'd been friends forever and just hadn't seen each other in a long time. So, that was a Monday, and the following Saturday, he asked me to go with him to a bonfire. But, Friday night, he surprised me, and asked if I'd like to get breakfast with him Saturday morning. The next morning, he came and got me and took me to the Black Bear Diner, which was super good. Oh my gosh, I forgot to give him a name. We'll call him Zach. Anyway, he came and got me that night, and we went up and had a bonfire with 2 other couples, and partway through the night, he held my hand, and put his arm around me, etc etc. And, that night he kissed me. We went on another couple dates, and we started talking about becoming an "official" couple. He asked me what I thought, and I didn't quite know how I felt. The next day, I was having a really important job interview, and Zach had a really important test that day as well. So, we decided to fast for each other, and we also decided to fast and see if we should pursue our relationship. Long story short, I got the job; unfortunately, he didn't pass his test; but we decided to go ahead and pursue the idea of "us". It's been the greatest thing. Last night, he took me to the temple, and it was a really, really good experience. Afterward, we were walking around the temple grounds, and he looked at me and said "are you hungry?" To which I emphatically answered "yes", and he said "well, we're all dressed up. How about we go somewhere nice?" So he took me Los Hermanos in Provo. It was super good. Anyway, yeah, that's the little details of our relationship. But I absolutely love spending time with him, I always have a good time, and we seem to be an almost perfect match... more to come later.
