Spoken Words

Inquiring minds would like to know what "Akbar" and I spoke about.

We pretty much touched every topic. We addressed issues such as how his family would feel about him dating a Caribbean lady; if he were to get a job offering in India after being with his girl for 2 years if he would take it; what are some of his favorite things to do; and I definitely told him about my family and their ways.

His family is pretty liberal; he couldn't imagine himself being with someone for two years without marrying them; he enjoys playing tennis although he's a beginner just like me, he enjoys going to the movies, walks in the park, trying new cuisines, and learning new things... just like me, Just Like Me, JUST LIKE ME!!!

We talked about our past relationships and the mistakes we've made. One of the things that amazes me is how much we can talk without having to deal with an awkward pause. The last relationship he had was two years ago and he hasn't found anything promising since then. He's trying to take his time to make sure the next girlfriend he has is the right one. I feel the same way. The next guy I decide to bring home will be a keeper.
