Straight out of a chick flick

3/09/2011 The Romantic 3 Comments

So, our dear sir responded to my outlandish inquiry and we met in person!

We spent some time walking around the MoA, one of my favorite places on campus. And he listened to me babble on about my favorite pieces in the Dorthea Lange exhibit.
(Did you know I thought that was really sweet? I know not many people care when I babble on about art, but you did. And I thought it was sweet.)

And then he invited me over to his place for dinner. And I accepted.

How did it go you ask? I'm afraid now that since my anonymity has been erased, I can't exactly write everything that I would like.

BUT

I did send him a PDT if that's any sort of indication. ;-)

The Anti Austens

We are The Anti-Austens, a collective of feisty, young Latter-Day Saints endowed with old-fashioned sensibilities (acquired through our Mormon upbringing and extensive reading of Jane Austen novels) trudging our way through the modern dating scene. Our blog was first created in 2010 and based in the Latter-Day Saint epicenter of marriage: Brigham Young University. Since its creation, the blog has seen many writers come and go, but those of us who remain continue vigilant in our quest for a gentleman happily blessed with our ideal qualities. For a few of us, that quest has led us away from our original hunting ground (BYU) on to hopefully greener--and considerably less overwhelmed--pastures.

Wow! that's so cool! I did personally wonder about your whole anonymity thing, but hey, maybe it will be totally worth it. In any case, it sounds like you're making a new friend and that's always good. Good luck!
