J.... that's a great suggestion. Rather than being concrete about it, I can keep it open and see what she wants to do. Also, this way she can pursue me and I can see how I feel about it.
Again, I am totally being speculative here about that and no idea whether that will come up or not.
I saw her today at a kid event and she was very friendly and talkative. That kind of got my guard up because I don't know if she's trying to soften me up for some news or if she's being genuinely friendly. In either case, I'll find out from the convo.
I've already brought up MC, so she knows that I would need that if we were to work on 'us'. Aside from that I'll just keep it more open then.
I'll come back and give a full report tonight lol. Just realized that part of me really trying to figure out what to say is coming from me being worried about how she will react. I just need to let go of that and do what is important for me and be steady, calm, and collected.
