One Girl's Story - Part 8: The DTR and . . .

Dear Bro Jo,

Thanks, Bro Jo.

We're definitely on the brink of a relationship, but yeah, just needs a DTR.

We have talked about our families, but I just talk about my siblings and parents individually, or tell funny stories and family traditions etc.

I met his parents because it was his birthday, and they came up (he's also from around here) to take him to dinner and told him he could bring a date.

His two younger sisters came too.

So it wasn't a formal "meet the parents" situation.

Right now, I'm feeling like once we've been in a relationship for a while then I'll invite him to come to Sunday dinner with me and just explain it on the car ride down.

Ugh, I hate talking about it though.

It's so painful.

Oh well.

Any tips on telling something really sad and personal without crying?

I hate crying in front of people. 

I hope he kisses me tonight too.

I'll see what I can do to influence that. ;)

Thanks again,

- CG




Dear Bro Jo,

Update: He kissed me!

He walked me to the door, and we both stalled for a few minutes.

Then he gave me a long hug, and I could tell he wanted to kiss me, but he was hesitant.

So I finally said, "Would you just kiss me already?"

And then he did.

And we DTR'd finally.

So Yay! :)
