where is this going?
so, I met john probably 3-4 weeks ago. I was talking on the phone with someone & he just stood there looking at me. I got off the phone & was like " can i help you?" and he was like "i hope so". He introduced himself to me. I had to get back to class, so he gave me his #, i said i would call him. he said "no you wont really?". i was like "listen when i say im going to do something, ill do it". so i called him 2 days later.
We met for lunch on campus, we sat there talking for an hour or so. I'll tell you right now he isnt at all what i expected. Let me time you a little bit about him. He's 26, originally from AZ, but grew up in Indiana. He's the 1st male in his family not to go into the Navy. He has a brother & a couple of sisters. He came to MU because he followed his gf at the time. She just graduated in dec, broke up with him, and went back to AZ. He's a geography major, really into Enviro Issues. He has a beagle puppy named Bishop. He has a lip stud. I'll say this & it may make me look ignorant, but my 1st impression was " wow i just met the 1st black whos into enviromentally issues". I'm sorry but those were my thoughts.
So the past couple of weeks, we just met to go to basketball games together. We txted every so often. This past tuesday he took me out to lunch, we had a really nice time together. He just keeps surprising me. He has a job working on a farm and this summer his internship/job is composting. (Gets food from the local hospital & college campus, composts it locally). He wears flannel shirts, loves to skate board, and listens to all types of music.
On wed we attended a bunch of enviro lectures on campus that were taking place. I tell you the things to come out of his mouth, i was just in awww. Then we went to shoot some pool for a couple of hours, got to know each other more. Then we went out for dinner with some friends.
Tonight, we hungout, talked more & more. I cant tell you, enough already that I'm just in aww everything that comes out of his mouth. We'd all like to think we're not predjudiced but i confronted my feelings tonight with him & i was honest with him. I told him that he was the 1st black guy I've been attracted to. He really appreciated my honesty. (it was really hard for me to say it but i told him that).
Honestly, I dont think I've been happier in the past couple of days. I like him alot already, we are taking things slow. Though i know i like him alot, he's like my hippie/enviro/liberal boy fantasy. I never thought I'd meet a match but I think i have. I havent felt like this ina long time, its really nice to feel this.
