No, not the
show I used to secretly watch.
We just
relocated our booties to Eagle, Id.
If you need
to know anything about me it’s that I need people. I may not be a little miss
social lite, but I need me some girl peeps.
This is
what led me to attempting my first friend “blind” date. Before this week there
is no way in H-E-Double Hockey Sticks that I would have even thought about
going to lunch with a girl that was introduced to me on FB through another girl
that I have met twice, and the only reason we have crossed paths is because she is married to a distant friend of my husband’s that I
have only met maybe twice as well.
Did you
follow that?
To put it
simply it was truly a blind date.
I made sure
to take extra long getting ready. Should I let her pick me up? Or is the car ride
going to be awkward? Should I text or call her when I get there? These and many other thoughts crossed my mind but I wasn’t
missing out on an opportunity to finally meet a friend. {Queue Desperation}
I opted for
the meet her there approach. How did it go?
Let’s just
say we sat outside and talked for 2 hours. I was in “blind” date heaven.
The truth
is. The truth is at the end of the day WE need friends. The older we get the
harder it is to make them. Whether you have been friends for centuries or met last week. You’ll realize they need us, just as much as we need them.
This is my BEGINNING to finding Happiness here in Idaho.

I need someone to set me up on a few of these friend blind dates. It sounds like an awesome experience!
ReplyDeleteAmen sister. When we first moved to Temecula... last year I had no friends & kind of slipped into a depression mode. My husband set me up with a girl he randomly saw at church that he said, "looked like me". She FB messaged me to get my number & then we went over to her house for a play date. We have been bff's ever since.
ReplyDeleteSo happy you made a friend!
Gay set me up with herself and it was heaven!
