Oh yes, I am careful. This is not the beginning of anything serious. I will probably not see New Guy again for a very long time. I guess I just needed my PMA to have a boost, as it has been at an all time low recently.
All this D crap has got me so down, it was nice to put my depression on hold for 5 days and have someone treat me like I was worth something.
New Guy and I talked about the kissing incident and I told him "Please don't take it personally. It isn't you." I know how men react to rejection.
I, on the other hand, WANTED to take it personally. Because for me, a man (not just any man, but this particular one) who has known me for many years saw through my beaten ego to see the funny, warm, sensitive, attractive person I am. Now I just have to believe it.
