***Friends both Frannie and Crouching Mommy, Hidden Laundry are really having a rough go of things lately...I also notice that the alchemist is even more sad than normal as of late.

Although we all have crap in our own lives, these people seem to need just a little extra attention right now!! Let's pull together to support these great people when you can.
Cyber hugs to all of you.

Thoughts
Hey guys. I read your comments from the last post and I understand your sentiments. I agree with all of them. I find myself in a weird spot the last couple of months. Analyzing and working on just about everything. It is a bit exhausting to be honest. I have also been making sure to just relax lately...even if that means going to bed early.
I should give some more info after the last post. AK has still been asking to come over every evening. Yesterday we cooked dinner together and then later did the dishes together and it was very very relaxing. He has spent the night twice this past week. We have not kissed even once. Well, no more than on the cheek. There has been nothing like that going on. I have been standing back and watching. It is giving me the opportunity to SEE who he is now that the dust has settled. Before there was all this drama flying around mixed in with very high emotions and I could not figure out how I REALLY felt. I am slowly doing so now. I am not sure how it will turn out. I can honestly say 50/50 are the odds. Before this stuff I was so in love with him that working through things was the one thought at all. Now... Sometimes I feel like too much has happened and I believe we are over. Other times I am convinced that we will rise above the past. Always his presence is so natural and comforting.
This dinner date guy has been a miracle in the midst of all of this. He has reminded me what it is like to be in something that does not have any of the history...a clean slate. Innocence. It sure is nice.
Please take into account that this is only a sliver that I have been able to show you. It is a process and I need to figure it out on my own...very much like the advice to not twist AK's arm...I need to come to full terms with where we are going (even if it is our separate ways) in my own time. What I can say with certainty is that that young naive head over heels girl is gone. It is a shame really. I liked her spirit and her energy. Maybe I will find a more wise, slightly aged version very soon...with AK or some other deserving man.
