"I Think You're Truly Something Special; Just What My Dreams Are Really Made Of"
Two days into the new year, I received this message on Facebook."Hey Mariam. It's A from the Ass Jams party, I don't know if I had disrespected you any last night, but I do truly apologize if I did. I was drunk, but that's no excuse. So I do apologize if I did disrespect you in any manner". I was really surprised by the message. 1. I was surprised, because this beautiful individual went out of his way to contact me. He didn't just say hey. He apologized even though he didn't know if he did anything wrong. 2. I hadn't texted him and that wasn't reason enough for him to give up. 3. He was able to find me on facebook! I have a name that no one can pronounce. He not only knows how to pronounce it, but he knew how to spell it. Issa husband! I accepted his friend request and assured him that he didn't do anything wrong. I told him that it did seem like he was interested in hooking up, but that wasn't what I was interested in. He said that he respects my decision not to hook up and just wants to spend time with me.
I told A that I don't drink or turn up and would probably bore him, and he said my favorite line. "It'll never be a dull moment with me". *insert apple heart eyes emoji here*. We continue to talk and he opens up about some serious things. He tells me about his brother that passed away and how his family hid the death from him at first. He also says that he would love to get together again. I told him that I like dates (girl code for take me on a date). It was a brand new year and I didn't want to back track on my search for love. 2016 was a year when I started going on actual, adult dates and I didn't want to back track from that. He mentioned he didn't know where anything in town was,s o I would have to help. Being the stubborn woman that I am, I didn't want to suggest anything. I wouldn't him to make the effort and find a place to take me. I also wanted to see what type of places are good to him and whether we like the same things. His first suggestion was a coffee shop. While a coffee shop date sounds very romantic, I don't drink coffee. I had to decide if I was going to tell him that or not. I decided to tell him that I was up for going but wouldn't drink any coffee. I was hoping for food and that's exactly what bae came through with on the second suggestion. Fuzzy's Tacos. A place I enjoy.
We ended up setting a time to meet and he smoothly tried to make the transition from Facebook messenger to regular texting. I sent a message to the number he gave me and got no response. Turns out that he put the wrong number in my phone while he was intoxicated. The number was one off. I told him that the number he gave me wasn't right and he gave me an updated one. I worried, because I wasn't going to be ready in time for our date. I still had to shower and do my hair which wasn't in great condition. It was a month into the weave, and it was starting to look bad. I told him that I was going to be late, and he told me to take my time. He wasn't ready either. I asked if he wanted me to start driving to meet him there and he told me to wait for him to call. This was AMA being AMA. He likes being in control. Not in a bad way, but in the way I've been looking for my entire life. I want a man that will lead, and he does that in our relationship.
The first date was amazing. I parked my car right next to fuzzy's. A was waiting in front of the restaurant for me. I like that he hadn't walked in before me. He was a gentlemen. He was wearing a black sweatshirt and khaki pants. He smelled delicious. What I thought was cologne was actually blunt effects to hide the fact that he had just smoked. I gave him a hug, he held the door open for me, and we walked in. I knew exactly what I wanted to order, because it was the second day of the new year and I was still counting calories (we all know that didn't last long). He ordered something that involved a pig and beans. I knew it would be gross, but I let him get it anyways. He ended up being pretty disappointed with his food and mentioned how mine looked amazing. The food wasn't the focus though. The focus was that in that moment we knew we found something special. We opened up and talked about a lot of different things. He gave me an unedited version of his past. He made fun of me for getting food all over my face and handed me napkins to wipe it off. I told him in a letter that that moment makes me think that he was taking care of me from the very beginning. He agreed and said he only makes fun of me about missing my face, because he thinks its cute. I could end this right here my friends. That's love. Loving someone for their imperfections. But the story doesn't end here.
After the date we walked outside to my car. He had walked to Fuzzy's from his sisters house. It was cold outside, but we still wanted to talk. We were standing incredibly close to each other the entire time. Lots of kissing and rubbing was happening. This went on for quite awhile and we were enjoying every moment. He pointed out how comfortable I was with him which made me notice that all my guards were down. I was 100% in the moment. That's when he asked me to be his girlfriend. I reminded him that we had just finished our first date and we didn't know each other. He insisted that he told me everything on the date and he can tell the kind of person I am, so what is there to know? I still said no, because committing after the first date is crazy talk. He asked a second time, and I said no. I knew that I liked him, but I was stuck on the fact that it was too soon. We eventually got in the car, so that I could drop him off. We parked outside of his sister's house, but not right in front because we didn't want them to see us. He asked a third time, if I was going to be his girl. This time or the time before he had added in a story. He said that his grandmother told him that when you like someone, there's no point in waiting. He has an uncle who was engaged for a really long time and they didn't get married. His grandmother said they didn't get married, because they didn't want to be together. Two people that want to be together do just that. They are together. That story really resonated, and this time I said yes. On three conditions. 1. He has to realize that I'm in school and that's a priority. 2. I probably wasn't going to give up the V card (out the window). 3. He had to quit smoking. I told him to throw what he wad smoking out the door right then and there. He told me that that would be a bad financial decision and as soon as he finishes smoking what he has, he'll be done. That one was out the window too. He never actually quit smoking. But we did fall in love. And for about 3 blissful days we were a normal couple. Young and in love. We both were working and making more money than usual. We were in a good place. That was before the police called his place of employment and said there was a warrant for his arrest....dun dun duuuuuun.
