Not to long ago my crazy best friend called me with one of these fantastic ideas that she has so often. Fortunately enough for me, when one of these ideas spouts she generally calls, This one actually made me feel quite terribly. When she first pitched the idea I may or may not have laughed, directly in her ear. Luckily, she is 700 miles away and couldn't kick me. She decided to take a vow of total and complete celibacy. Now said best friend is absolutely gorgeous, despite her lack of butt, and just as goofy and outgoing as me. I know to many of you believe having sex while married is a great idea, but for her, it makes no sense. To be quite honest, I was confused.
I quickly began to think that she had ulterior motives. Not only had she sworn off sex, she had sworn off all men in general. As crazy as it sounded, it was actually a great idea in the scheme of things. No men, meant no distractions. Distractions make it much harder to complete college. Although that is a great idea, it is still not like her.
I then began to think. I don't generally do that more than once a day, but today i was inspired. She is exactly like me! You see she is.. was... who really knows, either way she is in love with a man. This man, Mike, somehow cast a spell on this dear girl. Men tend to have that uncanny ability. She wasn't swearing off men for no reason. No man could ever amount to him.
As crazy as I thought this all sounded, she is the mirror image of me. I had done the exact same thing for almost four years. I dated guys, but as soon as it got serious i would run away. No one could compare to John. I was stuck on him, and I couldn't get loose. As much as wanted to get rid of my feelings, they just weren't going anywhere. He had been there for me through everything.
After years and years of asking him to move here or ask me to marry him, I decided to to let him go. It was quite honestly the hardest thing I have ever done. The one thing that got me through it was knowing I had finally found the man that lived up to my standards. I miss him still, I no longer miss the man I was in love with, but i miss my best friend. I talked to him every day for four years. It was so hard.
I think that every one has or had one of these men in there lives. Honestly, as sappy as it sounds, I think it takes finding the right man to get the other one out of your head, I know my friend has the strength to make it through. perhaps I should introduce her to a Utah boy, they like to get married quick.
Welp.. Night
