Last night was a pretty good night for me. My EQ President gave me a call to see how I was doing. I then had him come over to give a me blessing. It was something that I really needed. When I asked him, I was scared and kind of embarrassed to ask him. I, however, asked him. He said that he would be over in a few minutes and he came over with one of my new home teachers. They were both really nice and they stayed to talk to me for awhile. I think that it would have been better for me to be alone with the EQ President so I did not really have to lie about how I was feeling. Oh well, I guess that is the way it goes. Before he left, I wanted to give him a big hug, but then I thought it would be weird with the other guy there, so I settled for a handshake. They left and as I was going to bed, the EQ President texted me and we chatted for awhile. Then I went to bed. It was nothing spectacular, but it was a very kind of him and his willingness to support me. He is great!
Today as I have been sitting in the Cougareat eating lunch, doing homework, and watching people (this is one of my favorite past times), I saw this one guy from my ward. Lately I have been seeing him all the time. I do not know his name, but I recognize him. As I was looking at hi today, I was overcome by the spirit. I felt that God had an immense love for me and that he wanted me to succeed in life. I stopped looking at this guy and the feeling went away. I looked over at him periodically and I kept feeling the spirit very strongly. Is he the one who is supposed to be my friend? It boggles my mind if he is because I have been looking and watching his movements while I have been eating lunch this whole semester. It will be interesting to see who gets chosen.
PS I realized that this sounds really creepy that I like to watch people and that I have been watching this guy for this whole semester. I promise that I am not a stalker. I just like to watch people that intrigue me and he intrigues me.

My path is no longer a mystery. It is before me and open. I just need to have the courage to take it...
About Me
- Sean
- I am Sean and this is who I am. There is nothing more I can say. I guess I could mention that I have Crohn's Disease and Spasmodic Torticollis, I fall in love with men, I am a swimmer, I am a member of the LDS Church, I am a state and national champion in many different things, I love music and let it define my life, I graduated from BYU with a BS in Biochemistry and a minor in Sociology as Magna Cum Laude, I love to cook, I researched at the NIH/NCI, and I working on receiving an MD/PhD at Mount Sinai School of Medicine. Yet, all of these definitions are small parts of my life. Sean is who I am really and that is how I define myself. I am Sean.

Lately I have been seeing him all the time
Perhaps you intrigue him as well. Maybe you should just go up to him and say 'hi' sometime.
Of course, this is a "do as I say, not as I do" bit of advice as I would probably be too shy and intimidated.
I don't know if I can do this. I think that I would wet my pants if I went up to him! What would I say? "Hi, my name is Sean and I am in your ward. I have been watching you eat lunch almost everyday this semester. I am really intrigued by you. Do you want to talk?" Holy cow! I wouldn't even know where to begin when I talk to him. I'll have to keep this advice in mind so just in case I find something to talk to him about.
Thanks for the advice and if it happens, it might be another post on how I talked to my intriguing friend.
my opinion is if your having such feelings then I would hold off cause if it were me and he turned out to be the one then if I had previously talked with him it would be completely awkward when the bishop introduced me... so if that made sense great if not forget I said anything
Holy cow! I wouldn't even know where to begin when I talk to him.
Uh, you could just say 'hi, we're in the same ward' and leave it at that and let him make the next move.
But, I fully understand how you feel. In addition to wetting my pants, my face would probably turn beet red (which I'm prone to do when I get really nervous) :)
"I don't know if I can do this. I think that I would wet my pants if I went up to him! What would I say?"
You could try, "Hello, I'm Gimple. Talking to you made me wet my pants."
You may then suggest a hug. :)
Hey I've sat in the Cougareat just eating lunch and watching people too! I love doing that. It's not creepy at all. Although, just saying hi to people that are in your ward shouldn't make you wet your pants--but how was I supposed to know? ;)
I love people watching!
