On another Wednesday, Jason asked me and Richie if we wanted to go out to eat, but neither of us could - I needed to go tutor at the after-school mission I volunteered at. But I told him, "maybe next week." I was half only being polite, but I like going out to eat, too, and sometimes I'd do that just as friends with guys - once or twice, not very often. NOT as a date.
So the next week he asked again, and this week, Richie wasn't there, and the Mission was closed, so I didn't have an excuse. I thought about it for a second, and said, "ok.... I know a good diner around here."
And so, we went to the diner. We talked all about our dreams and goals and what we were doing in life and my volunteering and how we each came to know God in a real way - and I knew he liked me then. I'd been putting it out of my mind before. And then he paid for me! At first, I was like, "Jason!" but he insisted.
As soon as we left, I called Fee. "What does that mean?? Was that a date?? What am I gonna do??" She was like, "Do you like him?" and I was like, "I don't know!" and she was like, "No, it wasn't a date, I pay for people all the time; if he didn't call it a date, it wasn't a date. If he hasn't asked you out or said anything yet, don't blow it out of proportion - just wait and see." "Ok...." I responded, hesitantly. I did not want to mess up in the area of relationships - I'm just that kinda person. I wanted God's best and God's best only!
So I chilled out. But.... I was kinda excited, too! I didn't feel ready to start a relationship at the time... or so I thought.... but, with Jason, now that might be a different story... if God had that in mind. :)
To Be Continued.....
