Second....Third....Etc... Chance

Is there a limit to how many times you can go back to someone? I mean, at a certain point, doesn't giving someone a second chance become sort of a moot point?

Unfortunately, I didn't realize this until I was past the point of no return. However, I'm not necessarily upset that I decided to give him another chance. He seems to be a different guy. Plus, he is finally out of his relationship, which by his own account, was bad. Amazing what leaving a bad relationship can do for you, huh?

He has been incredibly supportive and loving and I think this time may be it. Now, don't freak out, I just mean we might finally date instead of the stupid flirtationship we've been in. By the way, I'm speaking about Alex, you know, if that wasn't obvious. Anyway, this time isn't all about sex. It's nice being able to have an actual conversation.

Recently, we've been getting really close. He's finally opening up and allowing someone to see him vulnerable. He has made me feel so safe and I've been able to talk to him about things that no one else would understand.

Point is, things are going well and I'm excited for any possible future we may have together.

Grounded

I never cease to amaze myself.

I managed to get myself grounded, over something incredibly stupid. Something that I wouldn't have even gotten in trouble for had I just fessed up*. Anyway, that's not really the topic at hand, although the title would suggest otherwise.... Let me fix that.

(Title bar) Excuses Grounded

Better...ish.

Point is. I'm no longer grounded and we shall now return to your semi-regularly scheduled blogging.

Unrequited Love

Two words that, in my opinion, should not reside in the same sentence. I just hate the idea that love, of any kind, can go unrecognized let alone reciprocated. I mean, if someone is brave enough to show you their true feelings the least you can do is acknowledge it and return it as best you can.

I assume you're curious about what brought this on. Why I suddenly feel the need to express an opinion on the topic. Normally, I would say "because, like it or not, this is me," and that still applies, but I think posting an explanation and venting a little might help me a bit.

In short, expect another post in the near future.

Spoiler alert: Alex is back.
