Saturday night I had a quick but great encounter with a coach from one of our retreat school. He was really nice and really good looking (best smile ever) AND he didn't have any rings on his left hand. As we talked in the office, it became really clear that this coach respected both his parents and grandparents, loved to travel and have adventures. He was fairly new at this school and told me of his past jobs, and I was trying to add up the years to see if he was in the right age frame for me.
I spent an embarrassing amount of time yesterday googling this guy, trying to answer two simple questions, "How old is he, and is he single" I saw his school profile, Instagram, twitter, facebook, linkedn, and random news articles to find the answer to these questions. In all my searching, I have concluded that he is 35 and single (at least the last time he posted a picture of him and a girl was in 2013, and she was celebrating 18 months with a new guy last week on her Instagram)
His social media impressed me, I would love to get to know him better, but he lives north of LA. That is quite the drive.
I don't know if I would make a good wife to a coach. I pretty much know nothing about sports, and my only athletic claim to fame is that I ran for 20 minutes without stopping last week (which let me tell you, I am QUITE proud of that!!!)
But, just because I'm not into sports doesn't mean that it couldn't work out.
But, he is gone now, I don't have any reason to reach out to him, I have no idea if he would ever be into me.
How do people get this dating thing to work out? Do I have any chance of getting a guy in my life, I am starting to think that my chances are getting very S..L..I...M..
In a conversation a few days ago, I was talking about a friend that I have ( 22-year-old guy). Someone asked me if I had a crush on him. To me that's insane, a 22-year-old is the same as a baby, but why? I can like him, even if he is 8 years younger than me. How much are 8 years if you are both working full-time? I asked my 13-year-old friend (my boss's daughter) if I could date a guy that was 8 years younger than me. She said, "Becky, that would make him only 22, that is a little too young for you"
I should probs be listening to that advice, but I just want to have a great guy and have great fun with him. And I don't know how to really find that.
Lord, please give me the right guy in my life, I really need a break from this singleness.
I signed up for a 5K, SUPER PUMPED, I haven't done that before, but its going to be me, and 3 married couples doing the race together. I really really hope that I don't feel like the third (or seventh) wheel. There is nothing worst than that feeling.
