Journaling some baby steps to write.

Went out for a date night Wed. New thing for us. Dinner and a movie. H said he had a nice time.

Thurs H text'd me while I was out on my lunchtime bike ride. I obviously didn't get it. He emailed me, and I typed a reply, but was holding it so as not to seem eager to respond. Within a minute, H was calling me to ask where I was and why I didn't respond. YAY! I win.

Went out to meet with friends for our usual Thurs night out. I told H about how on my bike ride, I was passing people and getting them to talk to me. It's a big time in my tech park for people to get out jogging, so there were plenty to talk to. H smiled. He always liked about me that I was outgoing. Said it was something that had changed about me. Well, I was stressed for years, so he's probably right.

Got to restaurant and saw another friend that H works with. Went to talk to him and got him to laugh a bit. Then, some other guys that come into the restaurant when we usually do came in and I went to talk to them. Made them laugh. Went back to H and our group, and H asked me if I could "stop spreading joy around so much." He looked very happy. I felt very close to him last night.

So, we went home and I had told H earlier that I wanted to ML. He pretended to sleep and I got into bed and snuggled with him. He asked if that was the best I could do taking what I wanted. I laughed, didn't realize he was playing with me. So, I got ML and he looked into my eyes. It was nice, but I think he got uncomfortable a few times when I touched his face. Got to remember not to do that. It's such a huge step when he decides to look at me that I don't want to destroy it.

This a.m. we woke up and ML again and I served him breakfast in bed. He enjoyed that. Emailed me once already. Looking forward to our weekend together. Tonight we go out with friends to a restaurant. Tomorrow bike riding in the a.m. and amusement park in the p.m. Then we'll be going out dancing with friends later Sat. Fun packed weekend, I am going to see if I can get him drinking Sat night to pull more emotions out of him. It seems when he lets his guard down is when he allows himself to feel for me.
