gonetildecember Posted January 24, 2007 Posted January 24, 2007 You know how they say.. as soon as you stop looking.. then someone comes along.. Well, I decided to go on vacation a few weeks ago because I had finally decided to give up on my ex and I ever getting back together. I went home (I'm originally from a little Island in the Caribbean). I had a great time and it really changed my mood and for once I finally felt like I was finally over my ex. On the second last day of my trip, I was out with a group of friends and started talking to one of my friends brothers... Fast forward a few hours we ended up dancing and flirting the whole night, and when my friend couldn't, he offered to drive me home. As we got to the place I was staying, he asked me if he could be honest and say something.. and he told me that "he adored everything about me." I just shrugged it off as him having a good night.. (Miss Skeptical of course) and thought things would end there. The next day however he called and texted a few times to say hi and told me he wanted to see me before I left. We ended up spending a few hours together that day. I admit when I left the island I thought he was sweet but didn't really think things would go on from there.. I'm always second guessing things. Since I've been back however we've talked everyday, both online and over the phone and I can feel myself starting to get into it. He still shows a lot of interest... initiates most of the calls and messages.. but I don't know this whole situation makes me kind of nervous. I'm leaving in 3 months to spend 4 months back home and he keeps telling me he can't wait until I come back.. but do long distance relationships (if thats what it's going to turn out to be) really work? (5 hours by plane long distance) He's a really sweet guy from what I've seen. He's 5 years older, but has a lot of the qualities I look for and that my ex didn't have. He's educated, successful, fun to be around. I'm just nervous about pursuing things.. and I don't even know what he's interested in pursuing.. if things won't be able to work or if he is interested in something completely different. I've never found myself to be hesitant like this.. but I find myself re-reading my texts before I send them.. thinking about him constantly and wishing the 3 months would go sooner... I can't remember the last time I did all this craziness. he isn't the first person I've talked to since my ex and I broke up.. but the only one I've actually been interested in or excited about. Am I crazy and getting ahead of myself, thinking that this could actually work... or do I just need to try to chill out a bit.
