Hi ladies.
I've been going to a lot more meetings lately, which is helping me with my depression so much.

Something happened at a meeting this weekend that really picked up my spirits.

I've sometimes noticed this Really Cute Guy at meetings in my area, but we never talked. He always has a nice warm, not-creepy smile just for me though. I liked the way he hung around only with the guys and I noticed he was consistently at meetings and seemed to be seriously always writing something and consulting his NA books while waiting for meetings to start (stepwork, maybe?).

Anyway, this weekend, Cute Guy picked up his one year chip. Yay for him!

After the meeting, he came up and started talking to me, then, when I told him I had to go, walked me over to my car, and said "Well, I've got a year now, so I'm allowed to ask you out! I've been waiting for the day. What do you say? Want to come out and hear my band?"
I had to tell him that I don't have a year yet...ouch. I really wanted to go hear him. I'm a sucker for talent.
He was sweet, told me "Well, I've learned that if it's meant to be, it'll happen when you are ready to date. Let me know when it is OK to ask you again." I hope he is still single when I have a year! It was really nice to be treated with such respect, like I was worth waiting for. And I admire that he waited 'til he had his year to start trying to date.

I guess we'll just have to see, I have a long time to wait, but it was so nice to be asked. Sigh....I know I can't even hang out with him just yet, 'cause "just friends" would never work with Cute Guy. He's too cute. Wow. Maybe I'm not as depressed as I thought. I feel all tingly....not a bad feeling!

I think this guy could be really good for you! Aww I'm really excited for you and I dont even know your story!! But you say your not depressed when you think of him and thats reeeally good! Whens your year up? Keep in touch with him though!
