Swartzwelder, he was also the main character and totally handsome. If you haven't seen it, without
spoiling it, the main character is a reformed Christian, having abandoned his wild ways; now has rules for
himself to stay in check. It wasn't until recently when I ran into a young fella at the grocery store buying
flowers for his girlfriend... "just because" did i understand the point. Dating teaches couples how to be
good at dating. It in no way prepares you for the future, marrige or the changes that come with it. It is not
the rule but the exception that picks up flowers ..... because. After you settle into marriage and the mystery
has worn off, and it will! Regular life doesn't give you butterflies and tingles, at leeast not in the same
way. It's not that the romance is gone, it just becomes more comfortable and changes. I cannot speak for
anyone else, but when my husband cleans the kitchen or takes it upon himself to vacuum, I find that a
romantic gesture. Sitting together in the evening with good music and a glass of wine beats a bar any
day, even on Disco-hell night. There is a comfortable companionship that we share that was tingly and
exciting when we were getting to know each other. Now, it makes me smile with ease and happiness,
especially when one of "my songs" is playing.
So, will he ask? Probably ,but don't rush. Take your time
and enjoy being you before you rush to the altar. And know that your relationship changes
immediately...in na bad way, just changes. Be prepared.
