off topic a bit.
the essay is coming along fine.
slowly but fine.
I've found that this past year,
I've begun to grow closer to God.
Closer than ever.
I guess its perfect timing.
I'll be on my own soon
and I'll need guidance.


I see things differently now.
I see people differently.
Never in my life have I thought this way about things.


(please play video at the end of this post while you read)
There was this boy see...
Never have I been so close to a boy before. (I've never been in a real relationship, yup no boyfriend...ever)
I really thought he could possibly be my first.
Then I saw his true colors.
The sweet, deep, smart boy I thought I knew was different.
He wanted nothing from me but sex.
In school he would touch me.
It was always a cold touch...a cold touch that I knew wanted only one thing.
But I'd allow him to touch me...I've always wanted a boy to hold me.
I was desperate. Pathetic.
Girls long for a boy to hold them, its only natural.
I was really convinced I loved this boy.
It went on for years.
on and off.
No real relationship ever established.
Just a girl that fulfilled his desires when convenient.
I never had the guts to fully give in.
I'm still a virgin, but I remember many times where I was ready to come over, late a night, just to make him happy.
I'm glad I never did.



I found out today that boy has a girlfriend.
I prayed for him.
I hope he treats that girl well.
But if hes treating her like he treated me...I really hope she realizes.
A girl should never be treated like what he treated me.
Its been a few months since I talked to him last.
I prayed about it many times.
I finally see that you shouldn't give yourself away just to please a boy.
Giving yourself to someone like that isn't going to guarantee they will fall madly in love with you and want to spend forever with you.
In a way I thank the boy.
He's made my skin thicker.
He's made me realize I deserve much better.
I'm going to start wearing a purity ring.
To remind me of the promise I made to myself and God.
I'm a virgin and I plan on staying one until I really do find my soul mate.
I do have to admit though...
I would still like a boyfriend though ...someone sweet, genuine, smart, and definitely funny.
Someone who'll see that there is more to me than what meets the eye.
I would just like someone to hold hands with and cuddle with really.


I hope a find a nice boy.

Wish me luck.
