I’ve got to say that I’ve missed blogging. The last post I wrote was quite awhile ago and I admit that I haven’t had much to say until lately, mostly because I’ve been very, very happy.
I have a boyfriend. I found him after I had given up and decided I wasn’t ever going to meet anyone and get married. He’s not a jerk, not an alcoholic, not a game player, and not afraid of commitment. He is open and honest about how he feels, tells me about 20 times a day that he loves me and thinks I’m beautiful. I fall asleep every night cuddled up in my favorite place of all places: the nook, that special spot right between his shoulder and chest… I wake up in the morning to him nuzzling my neck and wrapping his warm arms around me. I feel like a teenager again, and I am head over heels in love with this guy. He is thoughtful, funny, kind, affectionate, smart, handsome, sexy, and uh….ahem, well endowed…
No, I’m not making this up. It’s true. I found a unicorn! And the very best part of all of this is that I am not afraid to receive everything he is willing to give me. We recognize we’ve found something very special with each other and we’re not going to let it pass us by.
Now in response to a recent comment I discovered about me on another blog, I wanted to say this: You might have been right. There might have been a chip missing in me. Maybe it was because of any number of jerks I had dated. Maybe it was because I was abused by my alcoholic ex, or abandoned by the first real love of my life, or maybe it was me. Maybe it just isn’t easy to find someone you’re compatible with. What the hell do I know…?
I think the chip that was missing for me was the belief that I would ever be able to actually open up to someone and let them into my life…so maybe dating these jerks was just a self-fulfilling prophecy…who knows? I’m hoping things work out with this new guy – we find out more about each other every day and continue to fall deeper and deeper in love. But if it doesn’t, then I least I know that after all the heartbreak I’ve suffered, that I am still capable of love.
