That's what I received today after a long weekend with my honey. :)

The relationship is still kind of in the "new" stage, for those of you who didn't read my posts before about the guy, but I think this weekend really pushed my feelings for him over the edge. I haven't felt like this about anyone in so long, and maybe never, because we are both so quirky and weird that our relationship is never predictable (in a good way!) and just different that any other I've had. A couple of my friends met him and my mom even met him finally this weekend and they all think he's perfect for me, which is something I never thought any of them would say about a guy!

Anyway, I'm just feeling good about this (I was very nervous before) and wanted to share it with someone. Oh yeah, and I taught him how to do a windmill on my balisong (I used the real one and gave him the trainer.) That's about all he can do, but I'll work on him. ;) (Just had to throw that in there!)

:D

You need to be use a little careful about this. Almost inevitably, the novelty of a new relationship does wear off. So, if you base your joy and excitment on that alone, you may be setting yourself up for disappointment.

Hopefully, the novelty is just the intial attraction and that you two will use that as a platform to build on to a stronger relationship.

In the mean time, I extend to you my best wishes.
 
Thanks Ashes, I had a great weekend too. Remember to put them in a little sugar water, thats what the florist told me when I bought them.





All kidding aside, all the best, and I'm glad to hear that you've found someone. :)

Well said, please be careful Ashes and remember that you have a whole bunch of friends here
 
Trust me, I'm very careful when it comes to relationships, which is probably why I haven't had one (anything serious anyway) in over a year, and even then I was a lot more reserved.

We know almost everything about each other because we have been best friends for almost three years. We'd tell each other everything, and talk on the phone almost every night, even though we rarely saw each other because of distance. He's still my best friend even though our feelings have shifted and we act the same, but different. Sort of like we took our friendship to the ultimate next level. I think it was a long time coming. Both of us were afraid to get involved this way, but now we are both surprisingly happy about it.

Anyway, I've never been one to be especially careful with my life, but I do guard my feelings pretty well. The fact that I've been completely open with him, and he with me, for so long and we never judged each other or anything other than occasionally worrying about each other and offering advice, well that takes a lot of caring about a person. And we both try to make each other better people.
