My new someone special :)
Awww... girls... I just have to share. I know we've all had some rough times lately but wanted to share my little weekend in the clouds. A couple of months ago, I met a guy and we've been out on a handful of occassions. It's been somewht sporadic due to our schedules and he lives right near my hometown so it's an hour awayanyway, we text/talk a lot though. Anyway, he finally came out and asked me how I feel and I told him how I'm interested but scared to get involved, to rush anything and if it was too soon (he knows EVERYTHING). He said there's no rush and that I'm awesome and he'd go as slow as I need... after that. Anyway, we are now spending as much time together as possible and it's sooo awesome just being adored by someone again. He's so attentive and affectionate and sweet. He's got the whole package, too... nice, kind, easygoing, genuine, funny, cute... he's an engineer. There's a spark that hasn't been there with anyone else I've gone out with... was beginning to think it had gone dead in me, that my heart was dead forever but I'm feeling again. It's too soon to know yet but I think I could fall for him ... we'll see. I'm not rushing anything but for the first time since the ex-hubs, I'm floating a bit.
Re: My new someone special :)
Thanks girls... oh my gosh, he just left and my heart feels ALIVE again... like it's beating and feeling... I'm exhausted from staying up all night and hanging out and talking... he's such a talker and I love it! I feel like I have earned this... after everything, I waited it out, I let myself begin to heal, I allowed myself to grieve, to make mistakes, to make ammends for those mistakes... and I really strived to do the right thing and I feel that God is faithful and He's giving me this as a gift and I'll cherish it for as long as he gives it to me.
Oh and Krissy... yes, I'll DEFINITELY be sure to tell him about my nesties... I already feel comfortable telling him anything and everything and he just holds me and kisses my forehead when I tell him some of the things I struggled with and endured. Sigh... I'm kinda floating right now...

I'm so happy for you!
As much as dating again sucks, that feeling of excitement when you are getting to know someone you really like is kind of the best feeling ever. Enjoy it.
