8 Things...

The following conversation took place online last week between me and a dear friend who is a police officer, but currently serving overseas... What I ultimately took from the conversation are the 8 things he'd tell the next guy I date.

me: what are you going to do if i date someone? do a background check on him?
police officer: might have to
me: be my chaperone? lol
police officer: oh I like that... pull him over, tell him that:
1. make sure her tv works
2. tell her everday how beautiful she is
2. Look into her eyes and see her soul, and how wonderful she is
4. Love her like you have never loved anything in this world
5. Never borrow ten bucks off of her because she will never let you forget about it
6. And every chance you- get laugh with her
police officer: want me to go on?
me: that's up to you
police officer: oh wait..
me: those are 6 wonderful things that you should definately tell a guy that i date.
me: what?
police officer: 7. Keep her away from the mens underwear isle because she looks at the packages
me: except that YOU keep bringing up the $10, bucks not me
me: LOL i do NOT!!
police officer: Because I feel bad
police officer: lol
me: that's awesome
police officer: you said you do.. how did you know they were there
me: how can you miss it?
police officer: lol wait what number am I on
me: in walmart, they're usually on like a major aisle, and you can't MISS them. #8
police officer: 8. got it
me: you had two #2's though lol
police officer: 8. Be her bestfriend and never keep anything from her
me: #8 is good
police officer: thats what I would tell him.. and listen. DON'T ever settle for anything less
police officer: deal?
me: i promise not to settle
me: deal.

I'm so thankful for friends who love me and make me laugh :)
