Pre-Mi No Longer

My RM is coming home this week, and by home I do mean Provo....you know, the place I currently reside.

My RM who wanted to date me and chased me for months....but it didn't work out because, well, it was complicated.

My RM who also like my best friend....indecisive little fellow if you ask me.

My RM who I wrote his whole mission and he hinted -a lot- in letters that when he got home we should date.

Ya, that RM.

I have to admit I'm very excited for him to be home.
There's something about being around someone who knows you.
Someone that doesn't make you explain yourself.
You can just be: I can't wait to just be.
To be able to fall into the comfort of an old friendship.

No expectations, just a walk, that's all I need.

I have a feeling Fall is going to be an interesting semester....

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.
