Jacob is my favorite. And I can give you many reasons why, but for now, I’ll just leave you with the top three:
He reminds me of my best guy friend.
He knows I am a huge brat, and still talks to me.
And finally, he lives across the Pacific Ocean, so he is a safe guy.
(Safe guy = no need to fear any relationship or commitment. Thank goodness.)
Contrary to popular belief, I am fairly talkative, outgoing, and I usually get along with people I meet, but it takes me a long while to feel totally comfortable and be my true self around them. It is like I have to test the waters, find out if they understand my Harry Potter jokes, see if they are witty enough to get my lame sarcasm, and to slowly find out if my laugh will end up giving them a headache.
Real life example: There is a guy I have known practically my whole life, but I can barely say two words around him. The reason? He is hard for me to read. I can’t tell if he gets my sarcasm, if he thinks my laugh is annoying, or if I am too loud. So instead of ever making it to the place where I feel comfortable around him, I am continuously stuck in an awkward situation.
Okay … Back to the reason for this post…
Jacob is one of the few people I have met that has broken past that superficial wall within minutes. I feel like I’ve known him forever, like we are old pals that can talk for hours about nothing at all and still feel like we’ve had the most productive conversation. And he even told me yesterday that, “Out of all the girls I’ve met so far online, you’re the best.”
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I should get an award!
If Jake and I got along as well in real life like we do over texting, phone calls, ect., I would be head over heels.
