It’s funny how we’re always searching for perfection and how things can suddenly just “work out” after a while…considering I’ve been happily involved with a few girls in the past year, I think it’s safe to say I don’t believe that there is only ONE perfect match for me. But at the same time, I don’t think EVERY match is perfect…sometimes they aren’t even close. I had one this past year where we were so different it was ridiculous…but things just seemed to work out (for a while anyway). The other one seemed pretty perfect…but things just DIDN’T work out and that pretty much stopped that relationship dead in its tracks.

But fast forward from then to now…

I’m talking to a girl who seems pretty perfect. If she reads this, I’m sure she’ll sit there adamantly shaking her head ‘No,’ but it’s true. She’s the kind of girl who’s not only got good looks (read: she’s fucking beautiful…seriously!), but she’s got the personality to complement it. It’s hard to get both looks and personality all in one package…usually you’ve got to choose one or the other. She’s the kind of girl who can put a smile on my face no matter what’s bothering me and turn the shittiest day into a great one just by sending me a text message or sitting and talking with me over lunch or drinks after work. She cracks me up when she’s been drinking and turns me into a little kid when I’ve been drinking…lol. Even though we’re not an official couple or anything and have no plans to become one in the immediate future, we’ve been through quite a bit together which has given me a chance to see the real her in a lot of different situations and I really like the way she’s able to handle herself in those aspects.

I think what I really like most of all though…and this is going to seem kind of odd…the fact that even though we’ve only been talking for less than 2 months now…she’s been in the picture for almost 2 YEARS now, but due to issues known as “life”, we never really had the opportunity to take this road before. It’s funny though because I had one ex (while we were still dating) flat out ask me why I didn’t just date her because she noticed how friendly we were with each other. The other ex got noticeably jealous when I would talk to her while she was working. We didn’t even flirt with each other or anything back then…it was solely just friendly discussions and nothing more. Even my brother had commented after the first time he met her at lunch with me one day that we should hook up because there was totally a connection there. Funny how they all noticed the connection that far back (some noticed it before I even realized it even…I mean I’ve been attracted to her since the beginning, but I never thought she would feel the same way)…and now suddenly it’s all kind of playing out.

I guess all I’m really getting at in this blog…I’ve been searching for the perfect girl for a while now…and while I don’t know what the future holds for us, I think that search has come to an end. I’ve found perfection and I have no desire to search for alternatives.

Jess, I hope you have a Merry Christmas…thanks for coming into my life and while I know I can be a real jerk sometimes, I hope you realize it’s just me being a total smartass and I would never say or do anything to intentionally hurt you. You are simply amazing. :)
