Oh the Wedded Bliss

I just got an e-mail from my best friend from college, she's engaged! I'm so happy for her and even though I haven't met this guy in person, I know he's the "One" for her.

Anyway, this past weekend was a blitz of weddings in an usually hot spell in NJ. But both brides, Suzanne and Francine, looked amazing. Suzanne married a guy she met at the bookstore where I used to work. Bill, her husband, is a very sweet guy who she's madly in love with. Their wedding was a fun time and the reception hall, The Manor in W. Orange, was amazing.

On Saturday, Francine, a childhood friend, was married to her college sweetheart Doug. They got married by our high school sunday school teacher Danny. The ceremony was short and thank goodness because the sanctuary wasn't cooled down enough. Again two people very much in love but in a different way than Suzanne and Bill, mostly because of the age difference.

Anyway, it got me thinking again about why I'm not much of a dater. This is the last place I will whine about it, (I promise Kate!), but I don't ever get to be with the guys I LIKE and instead settle for some nice guy who asks me out but I'm not really attracted too. The guy I like now might have a clue but I doubt it and I haven't figured out a way to ask him without ruining the foundational amount of comfort/fun we have with each other. Oh well, I'm not in a rush but I'd like to know where I stand with him sooner than later.
