The Beginning

So I decided to post about our first two dates and how Kyle and I meet.

I used to work with one of Kyle’s good friends. A few months ago Shane came to me and told me he had a perfect friend to set me up with to just go out and have a good time. So of course I agreed. Over the summer Shane kept talking Kyle up to me and selling him to me. (Yes babe…Shane is a good friend) Ill admit knowing Shane I was a little nervous about what Kyle was going to be like. Shane is a very loyal and friendly guy but also kind of egotistical. I was hoping Kyle didn’t have an ego (having dated an ego before I didn’t want to do that again)

Well about mid September Shane decided it was time for Kyle and I to meet. So Kyle and I started calling and texting each other all day long every day. It was nice to talk about our views in life, how we felt and to get to know him a bit before a date. It was really nice to get a sense of who Kyle was and what he wanted from life and relationships ever before starting to date him. It helped me have a peace of mind about who he is….it helped with my trust issues.

Anyhow on September 24 we decided to go on our first date. Kyle was up my direction for dinner with friends so he asked me if I would want to meet up for ice-cream. We meet up and went to Sub Zero (Side note I will not be using rice milk again…not so yummy) After Ice cream we sat in his car and talked tell one in the morning. Just getting to know one another, and all sorts of things. Talking a bit about what our pasts had held but not in a lot of detail. Talking about likes dislikes, etc. It was so fun to watch the walls come down between the two of us as the night wore on. We got more and more comfortable and it started feeling like this was not the first date.

On we go to our second date. Yes we had many nights of phone conversations in between. On the Wednesday (our first date Wed night date night) we meet up and Molligans, a fun mini golf park in Sandy. When we meet up we headed to dinner at Fire House subs and then went back to play mini golf…you know what is great…Kyle wasn’t scared off by my mini golf cheating habits. After mini-golf Kyle said ok now to a the fun next step….He drove me to Draper Park.

The plan was to lay on the hill facing the temple while we talked. But that turned into an adventure. Did you know that around dusk sprinklers tend to go off in parks…who know. Anyhow we kept be driven around by the sprinklers. Finally we found a grassy area that was safe from sprinklers. Kyle pulled out the blanket and we layed on the blanket looking at the pretty stars and talking. Yes more talking (we are good at it) we talked more and more about our pasts, fears, goals the future etc. That night we also told each other that we were falling in love with one another.

What a perfect night and way to start our relationship!!
