Working on a friendship

[Belle]

Had a weird convo with H today.

I told him I was sponsoring a child from El Salvador - just signed up on Sat night at MercyMe concert. It really makes me feel good. I didn't decide to go to the concert until Sat day and I just feel like it was meant to be (sponsoring a child).

Well H said that I need to be careful about scams.

I told him not to rain on my parade.

(He has always been skeptical about everyone, everything. Starts off not trusting and gains trust in things whereas I start off trusting people/things and then if trust is broken, I move on)

Then we talked about the concert (Christian band) and he told me I need more balance in my life.

I told him I have balance....between work, school, church, social life. Then he retracted that statement and said he's probably the one who doesn't have balance - all he knows is school.

He said that I've just changed so much. (Became religious)

After he hung up, he called back to say that he hoped he didn't hurt my feelings and he didn't mean to.

I told him no, he didn't hurt my feelings but I just didn't want him to think I'm weird or something.

He said he doesn't think that - he knows I'm just doing what I need to to get through this tough time.

We talked about his Dad and he told me that he hasn't told him yet that he moved out - he knows his Dad will be sad.

It was weird b/c I felt like he was a little sad because I have changed so much. He's not the religious type and I don't think he cares for it.

I know I'm supposed to "be attractive to him" according to DB. And religious isn't attractive to him. But I'm not going to hide this because I believe in it.

I am sorry if he is sad.
