Love in this Club - it CAN HAPPEN!!

I met my S.O. IN A CLUB!!! The picture is of our first kiss. How cute, huh? You know how they say you don't go looking for love in a club? Well, that's true, but you become the exception when love finds you there!

Here's the short version: Went to a Dallas club, "Wish" in uptown, with an old, but beautiful, high school girlfriend of mine. This was about a year and half ago. Since then, I have not been back to that club and actually I don't think I've hung out with that same girlfriend of mine (I need to make a phone call to her).

Anyhow, we're sitting in the VIP area and in walks my S.O. I'm telling you guys, it was like a movie. He had the "slow motion walk" and everything going on. He looked good and walked tall. At that moment, and this has never happened before, but my internal voice said, "that's the man I'm going to marry!" Now, there's still hope for that!! We're not engaged at the moment, but I'm hopeful.

He was into me also. How do I know this? Well you know that "flower/picture" guy that walks around the club asking, "I take your picture for $5?", that guy came up to us and my S.O. agreed to pay for the picture on one condition .... I had to kiss him! He is soooo smooth. If he had been one of those one-night-stand type of guys, I'd probably hate myself and this picture today. However, I'm so glad my S.O. paid for this picture because it represents our first kiss. yay!

Another way I knew he was different from all the other guys ... he called the next day! But it wasn't just the next day, he called the next morning. I'm talking, 9a.m. the very next morning. Ladies, that's how you know you found yourself a keeper, when the guy calls you the next day and never stops.

And that's today's RoMANtic Redemption. Until next time ...

No Sex - No Problem

You know, it's a good thing I have Surprise! You're Engaged to keep me busy otherwise I'd probably be going crazy thinking of all the SEX I'm NOT HAVING. That's right after years of pre-marital sex I've stopped. No more promiscuous activities going on here, I've stopped all that.

What happened? To tell you the truth, I went back to church - on my own accord. Well sort of on my own accord, actually the major catalyst was my being laid off in June '08. Six months with no income coming in, depression set in, I wasn't showering, stayed in bed all day and night, I was miserable - that's definitely enough to make anyone go back to church.

Three months prior to my lay off in June, I had met my S.O. (significant other) and bless his heart, he stayed with me through that dark and depressing time. What a man huh? Yea, I think so too.

Anyhow, we both made a commitment to go back to church and become member of Fellowship Church in Grapevine, Texas. That to this day has been the best decision of my life. Since becoming a member, I've stopped lusting after guys, no more trolling the Dallas clubs looking for men and no more sex.

It's funny, but the no more sex thing has actually been a good thing for my relationship with my S.O. What's more? He's totally in agreement of it. And, he's not cheating - promise. So far, it's been nearly a year since we've had any kind of sex and that includes oral.

So what do we attribute our "No Sex policy" to? Our fear of God. You see, our belief is if we engage in sex before marriage, God will punish us and our relationship/marriage. It's definitely been hard, so to speak, especially on birthdays, our anniversary, vacations, trust me we've been tempted. However, we feel if we're strong enough to hold out during this time, that strength will also be exhibited in our marriage.

No sex has also made us a lot more creative when it comes to roMANcing each other. Plus, our senses are much more heightened when we become increasingly "hot for each other". A simple kiss or touch is so much more now - it's a complete turn on.

And that's today's RoMANtic Redemption. Until next time ...

Romance Redemption

Hi there,
My name is K.T. Lynn, and I want to take you on a journey. I've started a new chapter in my life and I'm using my new blog to document this path. I invite you along.

Quit little ditty about me: I'm President/Founder of a new website called, Surprise! You're Engaged - basically I videotape wedding proposals and other "couples' videos". The crazy part? I've only fallen in love with "Love" a year and a half ago.

To be honest, prior to starting up my business, Surprise! You're Engaged, 3 months ago, I was NOT a fan of love. Crazy, I know. In fact, I was like Julia Roberts in "My Best Friend's Wedding", I was very uncomfortable with all that "yucky love stuff". Romance weirded me out. I never went on dates where it was just me and the guy, most the time I requested my friends (guys and girls) be in the room or nearby.

Real quick, do me a favor. Take a quick scan of your girlfriends, is there one that acts more like a dude? She's a little flakey, you can never count on her showing up to the club, but when she does she's the life of the party. She charms the boys and breaks their heart. You never hear of her in a relationship lasting more than 3 months and if she is most likely she's cheated on him? Yup, I'm "that girl" or at least I was.

It's kind of a remarkable thing that's happening to me at this point in my life. What's more? I'm well aware of it. I've changed. I'm no longer "that girl"... plus, I'm in love.

Take this journey with me as I try and understand my past and how it affects my future. My hope is that I come to a realization about my current "change of heart", falling in love and possibly get a ring on my finger - never thought I'd want that.

Until next time, this is K.T. Lynn and RoMANtic Redemption.
