She's gone...I'm devastated, but hopeful - Part 2

[minkerman]

Well, yesterday turned out to be the best day since we started this journey. Things are definitely looking up, but I am staying cautious, just in case.

I went to her place at 3:00 like she said. She had made up a nice plate of snacks and opened a bottle of wine. We sat down and talked...it was really good, and she says she is on board with us trying again, but she still wants to stay in the apartment until the end of March, so she can continue discovering herself and ensuring we don't fall back on old patterns.

We went to the chefs' event, and it was really nice. We had a great time. Later, we went back to her place and she asked me to stay overnight again...I readily accepted. Once again, the sex was utterly amazing, I don't think it has ever been this good for us.

We fell asleep in each other's arms and went for breakfast this morning. We talked a lot about what the future would look like for these two brand new people. She is a more than a little scared of moving down this path and seeing us end up exactly the same as we were before...that is why we are agreeing to stay apart for another 6 weeks, and keep dating. I am calling her my girlfriend, and she likes it

So, next date is on Valentine's Day, we are going to a hockey game. Like I said, things are looking up.

Hope she doesn't change her mind, but I think it will all be OK.

BREAKING NEWS - Just as I was writing this she MSN'd me and sent me a little heart icon. I love her so much...this is gonna work dammit.
