Thats all i wanted. I wanted to feel the butterflies in my stomache. I wanted to get tingles up and down my spine. I wanted to feel like we had a connection to eachother. In that moment I hoped that locking lips would keep us heald togeher... some how bring us closer mabey...
She told me no. "This whole no kissin thing was your idea" she retorted my attempt for a kiss.
She was right. We had made a radical dicision the first week of our relationship. The origion of the word radical has to do with getting to the root of the problem. I saw that kissing for me was like a kid with a learners permit sittin in the driveway reving the engine and then slamming on the brakes before going into the street. How dangerous and wasteful. So we made a decision to not kiss. for a long time.
So now that we didn't kiss i came to a realization. we were just sitting there in akward silence. So we had to find something to talk about. You know wat... i learned a lot in that conversation. Like that she has never moved, and that she can't drive stick, and that she loves to tap dance. Things i never would have guessed. It really got my wheels turning. How many conversations have i missed by wasting time reving up the engine to slam on the brakes. I don't wanna miss another conversation. So im gonna save kissing for later and enjoy the talkin now. The tingles and the butter flies fade away when the kissing stop. But getting to know some one for who they truly are lasts. All the talking has heald us together in a relationship that is as dense as concrete. Not superficial and fleeting like the kiss that i desired. I still desire a kiss... but i desire her more. For who she is. Im glad we decided to be a little radical. Try it. You might just like it.
Romans 13:14
Rather, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to gratify the desires of the sinful nature.

I agree!
It's really cool that you guys made that decision; kissing is thrown around too easily these days.
P.S. Thanks for the comment! I see nothing wrong with your grammar though, sir!
