2nd time's the charm

Love is a battlefeild

you all know that this is the truth. It was entertaining when my co-workers and I got on this conversation. Clint: The assistant to my boss is currently seperated from his wife who has it in her plans to devorce him. Dallin: The senior member of the crew who is going to be leaving on his mission next month and thus as interested as he may be in girls avoids them. And Me: The one guy who actually dates sometimes, but hasn't had a girlfriend or any prospects there-of for nearly a year now.

It was brought up that in the eternal war of love isn't the guys vs. the girls as much as it often is guys and girls vs. guys and girls. Friends and even brothers being interested in the same person -- a battle has begun.

Some of the sad commentary was that your battle in the war doesn't always end after marriage, as Clint is sorely comming upon. Others like Dallin and I both are comfortable with runing across the feild every now and then just to get to the other side in order to have another look and being greatfull that we're still fully intact.

Then again there are others of my friends who choose to be, for lack of a better analogy, the worriors. They might sneak out there or just run out with both guns blazing. I've seen them go out there with no real goal in mind except for the shere excitement of being out there. I've seen them charge straight at their chosen target only to be taken out by the unseen sniper. Then there are those that are just able to blow away any other competetor and keep the chosen target for themselves. Of coarse this only occures when both parties are fighting for the same thing, but when it happens there seems to be an unstoppable force which only they can contend with.

My co-workes and I all came to one final conclusion, that it's always worth it . . . ok except for Dallin who decided that he was going to wait till he got off his mission to jump in, but if it wasn't for other issues he would be joining the ranks well enough.

Hehe... Trust a man to make love sound like a game of Halo.

Of course, being a girl that has actually played the game, I can see some similarities. You have teammates... People who are supposed to be watching your back. You have enemies...

Yeah. Love is just like Halo. ;)
