Re-awakening

Jack and I met for the first time the other night. Although I had no clue what we would do when he got here, we ended up having so much fun! As we walked around the lakeside park, I noted how the beach had not closed yet and that there would still be time to swim. But then I quickly bit my tongue, embarrassed, as he hadn't been prepared for a dip in the lake. Much to my surprise, he insisted that we swim anyway--that it would be lots of fun--even though I kept bugging him about his shorts getting all wet. He just waved it off saying he had an extra pair in his truck. How incredibly spontaneous he is! Then after our brief swim, (it got dark fast), we headed over to my place and watched a movie. He has such a great personality! His laugh is amazingly sweet. We didn't get to finish the movie as he had to work the next day, but it was alot of fun just to be with him. I'm so glad to have such an amazing new friend! Nathan is clearly caught up in his own egotistical funk now and is out of the picture for good. He's seen that I don't even approach his expectations, and is probably now with some anorexic model-worthy chick who makes gobs of money and is always the life of any party. Jack is willing to do things with me that I've always longed to do with Nathan but never felt comfortable enough doing with him as he was never really my friend. Jack has already expressed interest in kayaking, hanggliding, and white-water rafting. Wouldn't that be great if I could now begin being happy with a guy who likes to be around me for who I am?
