This weekend I was invited to a cabin by a girl I've been going out with lately. We stayed with about 10 other "couples". It was basically a group date that lasted the whole weekend. The great thing about it was we were in a beautiful location and the only thing on the agenda was fun. Wake boarding, eating, movies, guitar, games and so on. The really great thing about it was I rather liked spending time with my girl. So even when the group wasn't doing something fun, I was having fun with my date. I know what you're thinking - where were the chaperons? And that would be a good question. 2 of the couples were married, so you could say they were grown ups. But I don't think they considered it their responsibility to set an example. At least not a good one anyway.
We stopped by my date's parent's house on the way to the cabin, and they were obviously concerned. I told them I was coming by to make sure that she came from a good home. Wait, you're not coming?, I said in mock horror to the parents. The same cabin?!!! I thought we would be in separate cabins! Luckily for me the girl had been on a mission until two months ago and didn't give me any trouble.
So my insight is that everything is better with someone that you like. Even vacations. I hope being married is like and extended date. I guess that's what a proposal is - I'm going to be doing a bunch of stuff in my life, would you like to come along?
