Guasping my life..

I met Brad at a perfect time in my life when I had found myself.  I was married before I met him.  It wasn't good for me..or for my ex  After 2 years of marriage we divorced.  Best decision of my life.  He is happily married with a kid.  I couldn't be more happy for him and his wife.  After our divorce though I became really depressed, even though it was the best decision for both of us.  I started going the wrong way about handling my depression.  I started partying hard core.  I didn't stop for eight months until I moved to Saint George.  Moving to Saint George was the next step I needed to a fresh beginning.  In secret, I started to go back to church.  I first went to a church next to my house. I walked in and the ward was one for all old people.  I realized that when the bishop made an announced, "The college singles ward meets at.." LOL! I laugh now, but I knew if I went back to a singles ward that would mean I would have to date.  I hadn't dated for three months.  I refused to because I needed to know what was important to me.  After a month of sneaking into other wards I finally went to the singles ward.  First day, I met boys, particularly my hometeachers.  Boy, did they try to get me to date.  They asked me if I would go on a date with their roommate.  If I wanted to go with them.  They were a little cocky.  Each time I said, No they looked stunned that someone would say no to them.  A month went by and I was working at Mcdonald's as a manager.  I was in the drive thru and this really cute guy drove through.  I told my boss, who also tried to get me to date, that I would totally go on a date with him if he asked.  My boss ran up there told the guy that and next thing I know I am on a date with my now good friend, Nolan.  Our second date was a friendly BBQ with all of his friends.  That is when I met the love of my life.  Yes..I was on date, but Brad pulled up on his motorcycle and all I could think of was, Why am I dating this guy?  I should date that guy! Two weeks later Brad and I started dating.  You should ask me about that sometime.  Our first date wasn't perfect but it was obviously perfect for us.  He is absolutely wonderful to me and perfect for me.  I think now a days with so many people breaking up and divorces happening, we forget that while our love might not be perfect they are perfect for us.  And Brad is so perfect for me.
