I am really grateful that I received the thoughtful and thought provoking responses that I did receive, a few weeks ago. They allowed me to "normalize" what I was experiencing, to see it from a comfortable place. Yes, it is a very romantic thing I'm experiencing. Very romantic, indeed.
I've been busy, the last few days. Hell, the last few weeks. I had to get a car that could handle a road trip; my old one was not up for that. I had to organize the logistics; could you believe it was so hard to even find an affordable room in her area? A vacancy itself?
And I drove all day. A little over 600 miles. Almost precisely 1000 km. To meet her, for the very first time. I honestly did not even know what she looked like. Just words, is all I had. A few simple descriptors. We've been corresponding for years, but we only started really communicating over the last few months.
I was going on that roadtrip to ask her one of the most important questions there is. And I am back home, now, a very happy man. She said she'd have me, as her partner. The rest is just details, now.
If I've been weird, the last little while, it's because I've never felt like this before. I am in awe of it. I've just been exuberant....I've been exuberating all over the dang place.... haven't I been doing that? Exuberating, all over the place.
Now you know why.
All will be well.
