Until now, everyone I’ve ever had a
relationship with, every guy who I thought might possibly be "the one,"
was always like me. We shared the same interests and hobbies. We
liked the same kind of stupid movies. If I watched a TV show, I could
be pretty sure they’d like it too, because we just liked the same sort
of stuff. I’d get along well with their friends and family; they’d get
along well with mine. We fit perfectly in each other’s lives.
Couldn’t have been that perfectly, since none of those relationships lasted.
And
now I’ve started dating someone who is different in every way. He
doesn’t share my interests. He’ll sit through a stupid movie with me
because I like it, but I know he thinks it’s stupid. I can’t imagine
introducing him to my friends and family. I know that the longer I
spend with him, the more I’ll end up less interested in what I
currently like.
Normally, with so little common ground, I’d just give up and look
for someone I’m a better fit with. But it isn’t working. Every time I
go out with someone else, someone I have more in common with, I end up
thinking about this guy, and that he’s just better than them.
He’s a smart man. He’s a good man. And there’s this part of me
that’s curious about who I’ll turn into if I spend more time with him.
I’m comfortable with who I am now, but I think I might like being her
better.

I thought that about a guy once…..and I ended up married to him!
Guys can\’t change who we are. That is built into us from the day we are conceived. Guys, just like any other living thing, can change how we perceive ourselves and our surroundings and open our eyes to things we never had access too. It\’s always fun to find a seperate, yet compatible human being to show us new and exciting things!
Good luck! That\’s what I thought about my husband when I first met him… we couldn\’t be a better fit for each other, it turns out!
