"Kiss me beneath the milky twilight..."

Here's a follow up of my date with the Minister (in case you care):

We met in Alabama, which suprisingly is only like an hour and a half from me, but anyway...we met at this really cool art museum. I don't think he appreciated it as much as I did but whatever. It was still fun. Then we just drove around Dothan and chatted. Then he mentioned dinner. I always hate it when anyone asks, "Are you hungry?" or "Do you want to eat?". I don't think he, or anyone without an eating disorder, would understand if I ranted about how I still don't quite understand or rely on my hunger cues. So i didn't bother trying that. I just said, "if you're hungry then we can go eat somewhere." It seemed to work. So we ended up going to Ruby Tuesdays which was good. I ordered fish with zucchini and squash, and although I didn't eat all of it, I still ate probably the "recommended by Ashlee" 4 ounces. But eating in front of guys is still definitely an issue for me. I feel like its a major weakness on my part. Why can't I deny my hunger? Why can't I control these bodily urges and cues? I always used to be able to! Oh, and I used MAJOR rituals. I cut my zucchini into fourths and I even cut my spaghetti squash into sections. Then, of course, I had to start eating after he did and finish before he did, AND stop eating when he stopped eating. So many darn rituals!! But at least I ate something. That was my victory.

As far as things after that, they only got better. It was getting dark, so he grabbed a sleeping bag he had in his truck and we went to a local park. We then star gazed for a while in each others arms! So romantic! It made me so happy. And it made me happy too that I know he's a good person. Unlike a lot of the DBs I've dated. (If you don't know what DB is, ask me later). There was no kiss involved but I was okay with that. I asked him if I'd see him again and he said "yes".

So it was an excellent day with the Minister. Finally...a God fearing man!!!
