Lovey-dovey

Each night as my head hits the pillow, I mutter a prayer to the Lord, thanking him for seeing me through the day and for all the little blessings that He has performed in my life. Before I end my prayer, I would ask Him about the plan He has mapped out for me i.e. if I will spending life alone or together with someone else. I always ask the Lord to give me a man who can provide stability - financially, emotionally and spiritually, is God-fearing and godly and when the right man appears, I ask the Lord for me to be discerning so that I will know he is the one for me.

True enough (I still don't know if he is the one for me), I received a text message from a colleague, inviting me out for lunch after I send him a text message, wishing him all the best for his exams. This was followed by a series of text messages asking about how he was spending V-day and about religion.

Lunch was a simple fare of korean/jap food. There was not a period of awkward silence and heeding my mentor's advice, I allowed him to lead the conversation and added my bits and pieces whenever I felt it was necessary. By the end of lunch hour, I learnt alittle more about him, such as where he resides, horoscope sign, birthday (minus the year but I did the math with my mentor and he should be older by a couple of years), likes and dislikes, hobbies, church of worship.

When I returned to the office, I was greeted with a wedding march and lots of questions from the dietitians. I provided a brief summary of how lunch went and my mentor advised me to send him a text message thanking him for lunch (which I already did when we parted ways) and arranged for future lunch outings saying that I will pay for the next meal. His reply brought a smile on my face and he said he enjoyed my company. A relationship has to start from somewhere and I reckon most of us start as friends. So, I'm taking it slow at the moment and maybe something good will come out of it?

Ooh..I feel loved!

Ps: Don't guess too much! I will update if anything happens! In the meantime, I'm still single and very available! *winks!*
