Funny how things work out...

It amazes me how things have a funny way of working out, especially when you are least expecting it...

I met Dave back in January, and we started dating, and more importantly, started becoming great friends. He introduced me to a site called "Consumating", where you can answer weekly questions and start and posts in conversations. There's a lot of great people on there, including Dave's friend, Jay (Jay Def on Consumating).

I liked Jay as soon as I met him, I thought he had a wonderful personality and a great sense of humor. And we have a lot in common. I sort of had the feeling, such as, what if. But since I was dating Dave, I just put it aside.

Jay and I would talk in conversations, and as time went on, we'd flirt more and more, fueling the what ifs even more. But again, I just put it aside.

Well, long story short, the other night, Dave and I talked, and he and I are just going to be friends, which I think is great, because he has become such an amazing friend to me and I couldn't imagine not knowing him now that I do. But, he mentioned Jay and I possibly getting together, and I had to admit, I had thought about it. So, he gave us the green light, and the next day Jay and I talked and it turns out, he likes me too! And wanted us to be together!

I have to admit, I was really taken by surprise. It has been so long since someone has told me that not only they like me, but they want me to be their girlfriend, and actually meant it. I sort of figured he liked me, but I don't know, I guess I am just so used to being pushed aside and overlooked, or just being the friend. It feels good, very good. I'm not even sure why he likes me, but he does! He makes me happy, he makes me smile. Even though there is still a lot that we need to learn about each other, it just feels right to me. I am really excited to see what may come of this.

The only thing that isn't great about this whole thing is the distance. He's in Boise, and I am here. But I don't think we'll have any problem working it out.

Its so nice to be happy...it definitely has been awhile. :)
