Weirdness

So the other night I had this weird dream. Before I tell it here I want to add a disclaimer that I had been sick and pretty out of it before going to bed but at the same time that is usually when I have the most revealing dreams about myself. I will add some thoughts on it after I tell the dream and I am just going to put out all the info from my dream. (There are parts that might sound like I am giving back ground info but it was in my dream so you get it, oh and just as a warning my dreams seem really long and detailed but you will survive)

So it was about mid-June and I had been hanging out with this group of people who were all excommunicated RM's and I had been hanging out with them since the release of my bishopric so a couple of weeks. Well the group of people that I was hanging out with ended up splitting because two of the guys wanted to date me but I only was dating one of them and for some reason this caused a drift in the group but I still hung out with both sides. Then one Thursday I was just getting off work and the group not containing the guy I was dating showed up and I told them I couldn't hang out with them anymore because I didn't want to do the things that they were doing and I especially didn't like the guy that liked me asking me to have sex with him every time we hung out and so they got some food and ate and then my friend and old home teacher Bryan showed up. He had just gotten back from Jerusalem and went to all 5 of the Red Deli locations that we have to try and find me because his roommate Josh told him what had happened to me. So when he comes in I go over and start talking to him and he asks if he can take me out to dinner so that we can talk. Before I can answer him my boyfriend (who I was spending some time away from) shows up kisses me because of the other guy that likes me is there and then goes and sits down. I then tell Bryan that I am sorry but I have to work until 10 pm so I can't go to dinner with him but he could name any night that he wanted and I would be there. He tells me that he needs to talk to his roommates and he will get back to me and leaves. I then go over to my boyfriend and ask him what he was doing there because I wasn't suppose to see him until Saturday because I needed to figures some things out for myself. He then tells me that he needed to see me and so that he would eat and then leave. Well both groups of people leave and I go to another location to chat with the manager and then Bryan calls me and asks about Friday night and I say yes and he asks what time I get off and I say 5 and he says that he will pick me up at 6. I then tell him that I have to apologize because I had lied to him earlier I was actually getting off work just then but the other people that were there thought I was working until 10 pm and so I didn't want to start any problems. He forgives me and I tell him that I am going to go home and that I was excited to see him on Friday. So the next day is Friday and I am at the new location that I was at the day before because it was my day to help them out while the owner checked on the other locations the night before I had told Andrea about Bryan and how excited I was so when her and Dave started talking about me like they always did because they were worried she told him about me so he quickly leaves and goes to the other locations so that he can relive me so that I can go on my date sooner if possible. So he shows up just before 1 pm and tells me to go home he had this under control and he would not take no for an answer. So I get home and I get ready for my date but it is 1:30 pm at this point and I am not meeting him until 6. So I call Bryan and tell him that I got off work earlier and wondered if he wanted to get together sooner. He said that he was on campus and that I should come and meet him so I took the bus to campus (so that we would only have one car) and met him. Once I saw him I felt pretty stupid because there I was in shorts, t-shirt and flip flops and there he was in a suit. He explains that he just got out of an interview and we start walking around campus and talking. After awhile he says that he really wants to give me a hug and I tell him that was fine. While we were hugging we both had the idea to sit on the grass to finish talking and instead of sitting down we just fell down onto the grass. We talk a little more while lying side by side on the grass and then he rolls over onto his side and leans over so that he is directly over me and then says Krystal there is something I have to know before I do anything else. I tell him ask away and he asks are you dating Jason (that's the name of my boyfriend in the dream I didn't know the name until this point) and I told him that it was complicated that yes I was dating him but that I had just decided today that I am going to break up with him when I see him tomorrow. He asks me when I decided this and so I told him when I called him to see him earlier than we had planed and the feeling of excitement I got when he said yes. He then asked if he could kiss me and I said yes and then he started going in for the kiss and then asked if he was going to have to go the full 100% and I said yes I don't do any of that 90/10 crap from Hitch. He kissed me and it was amazing after the kiss as a test he asks if I wanted to go throw a session at the temple and I said yes. So he dropped me off at my apartment so that I could change and then he walked over to his so he could grab his temple stuff and I was ready by the time he got back. We went through a session and then in the Celestial room he told me that this was his way of testing to see if I was still worthy and he was glad that I had passed. We then went home and changed and went out to dinner and then miniature golfing. After golfing we drove around and talked for awhile and finally I told him I needed to go home because I had to work the next day. At my door he said that he wished that the night would not end and I said the same thing. He kissed me and then I had an idea. I told him that there was a possibility that I wouldn't have to work I just needed to go and check on all the locations and that he could do that with me and then we could go do something. Bryan agreed to come and so I told him I would pick him up at 8 am. So Saturday I checked on all the locations and they were good (Dave made sure of that the day before) and so Bryan and I got to spend Saturday morning and afternoon together. Then I had to go home so that I could get ready to see Jason who I was meeting at 7. So Jason and I talked and I broke up with him and I got home at about 9:30 and I was crying and didn't want to be alone but I didn't know where to go and then Bryan popped into my head and so I went over and as soon as he opened the door I started crying again and so he invited me in and got me some tissues and then we sat on his couch him just holding me while I cried and when I had stopped crying he asked why I was crying if I broke up with the guy and I told him because for the first time in the last couple of weeks I really felt the spirit when I got home and knew that I was doing what the Lord wanted me to do and I cry when I feel the spirit. It was about 11 pm at this point so I said I needed to go home and get to bed so I am not tired at church tomorrow so he walked me home and while he was walking me home his roommates got home from their dates and wondered where he was and when he got home he was just beaming and they asked him why and all he said was because I think I got a girl. The next day Bryan picked me up for church and we went together and when his roommates got there they joined us (they had no clue that I was the girl) and then right before Sacrament meeting started Jason shows up so we all slide down so that he can sit next to me and Wendi and April could still have their seats. Well it was fast Sunday and so I got up to bear my testimony so that everyone would know that I still had one and so that Jason would know there was nothing he could do to change that I knew the church was true. When I sat back down Bryan leaned over and whispered that was nice in my ear and then gave my hand a squeeze. I didn't let go and I don't think Bryan minded to much because he didn't pull away I even leaned my head on his shoulder. Later in the meeting Bryan got up and bore his testimony and when he sat down he grabbed my hand I leaned in and whispered that was nice in his ear and then took his hand and moved it so that his arm was around me and then put my head back on his shoulder. His roommates figured it out at this point. After sacrament meeting Jason told me that he wanted to come back to church and commended me for never really leaving and asked for my help and I told him that Bryan and I would help him anyway that he needed. On our way home from church Bryan says that he wants to make me dinner I said OK but I knew there was a but coming. So then he says that Sundays are the days he goes home for dinner and his family was planning on that and I could see that he was torn and trying to say something else so I said Bryan do you want me to come to dinner with your family he says yes and I agree so we go straight over there instead of going back to the apartments now dinner wasn't until 6 and we got there at 4:30. The roast was almost done and the dough for the rolls was ready to be made rolls so Bryan tells his mom that we will finish dinner for her and that she should just relax. I tease Bryan and say hey how did I get roped into this I thought you were making me dinner. In the end we made a salad, rolls, mashed potatoes and I even showed him how to make gravy from the roast drippings. While making dinner I get out of him what he had to talk to his roommates about. He told them that he liked this girl and that she blew him off that night but said any other night just name it and she was there did that mean there was a possibility that she liked him as well and they said yes and so then he had the courage to ask for Friday he had spent the whole time he was looking for me working up the courage to ask me to dinner that night. At dinner his mom asks me lots of questions and one of them was where do I see Bryan and I going and I answered well after dinner I see us going home this made everyone laugh and his mom then said I mean in the long run and I said I don't know I am just taking it a day at a time and whatever is the Lord's will will happen and I can't change that. She liked that answered and said that she approved. Well after dinner we went home and drove past the Provo Temple and as we went past he asked which temple should we get married in I answered Salt Lake and then went whoa hold on time out this is only the 3rd day that we have spent anytime together thinking of being more than friends how do you know where this is going and he said he knew that he was going to marry me when I answered his mom and said the Lord is directing me and there is nothing I can do about it. He then asked which temple I always wanted to be married in and I said Salt Lake and he said that he as well wanted that he then asked when I saw myself getting married and I said May. He then asked how long I would want to be engaged and I said no more than 5 months. Well sometime goes by and I pretty much decided that yeah I was going to marry him but I was still adamant about May and he was OK with that. It is know mid-July and we are walking around the temple one Sunday and talking and I say this sucks and he asks what so I told him that I love all the time that we have together and every time we are apart I can't wait to see him again and he agrees and then I say well I am leaving on Friday to go to Florida for 2 weeks and I would not get to see him for two whole weeks and that it sucked. He then grabs my hand and we start running back to his car and we drive to his mom and dads and he sets me at the computer and tells me to e-mail him my itinerary for my flights and that he will be back in 5 min. He then goes and talks to his mom and dad about going to Florida with me. His mom was like maybe this is a test of how much you love her and that while apart he will figure out if we are suppose to get married and he tells his mom I already spent 2 months away from her and almost lost her and that we already knew that we were going to get married but I was adamant about a May wedding and then his dad said shoot get me her itinerary and he would get the tickets because Bryan can't lose this girl. So we spend 2 weeks in Florida together and while there all my "dads" approve of him. We come back I spend Thanksgiving with his family and then in December we fly to Florida and are there from Dec 19th until the 26th. While there he starts doing things to make me think he is going to propose but he never does. When we get back to Utah we have Christmas with his family and there is 2 dozen roses from him for me and everyday I get more flowers (carnations, lilies, daisies, all sorts) and finally I put out him proposing from my mind and then on New Years Eve at 12 am we kiss for the New Year and then he gets down on one knee and proposes. I say yes and then all our friends that were there bring me more flowers so that when my roommates came back from the holidays our apartment was covered in flowers the living room, the kitchen and my bedroom.

That's when I woke up and here are somethings that I realized from the dream: 1) my bishopric was released today so if I snub people you need to find Bryan so he can set me straight and 2) I think that I might kind of sort of like Bryan. I never really thought of Bryan as more than a friend. He is a nice guy, fun to talk to, always has a smile, and seems to generally enjoy life. He also has one of those personalities that people enjoy being around. Bryan if you are reading this don't worry I am not expecting anything to happen because before this dream I never really thought of it. Here are some other weird things that may come true from the dream. I might get married in May no clue but the fact that in my dream I was so adamant about it it may happen (by the way in my dream the date was set for May 1st) and my mom is thinking it will be the end of July when she goes through the temple so I could be going to Florida at the end of July and while I am in Florida I will be doing stuff for work. Other than that it was a weird dream. Oh if the getting married in May happens it may not be to Bryan only the Lord knows what that dream really means in my life at this point all I have are guesses and speculations.

Ahh! What a dream! Wow. I can't say whether it means something or not, but I don't think you should look for any excommunicated RMs to date (especially one who you don't even know his name until after you've been dating for weeks (or months, etc.)! I must say that this dream does remind me of one I had several years ago about Jon and I holding hands at church during a fireside with you and Beth sitting a few pews back, mocking us. At the time, I had no particular feelings toward Jon other than friendship and just thought the dream was weird. I never dreamed it would actually come true! (Which you, of course, know did come true, with a little help from you!) Alas, that dream though was far simpler. I guess we will just have to wait to see how this dream of yours plays out.
