Talked to a cousin of mine who just got home from his mission and it brought back to me how much of a complete weirdo I was when I got home from my mission/
It is so embarrassing now to think about at all the completely stupid, ridiculous, and embarrassing things I did that I thought were totally normal and appropriate.
Some examples:
I once ended a date with a prayer in the car. (I cringe when thinking about it).
2 weeks after coming home some friends took me on a trip to lake powell. There were girls there, 1 of them was talking to me on the beach at night and I thought I'd show her how spiritual I was by pulling out the BoM and telling her that I needed to read for at least 15 minutes every day and that she should read with me. She played along but I'm sure thought I was insane.
The first girl I dated regularly (about a month after getting home) was not a good fit for me at all. However, I automatically considered marrying her and told myself that the lord led her to me.
It took me a solid year to stop being so weird, 15 years later and I still get a kick of embarrassment thinking about how weird I was.
Anyone else come back home a total idiot?
