Finally, A Happy Note

I know, usually my posts are "poor me", "life sucks" and stuff like that, but I finally have some great news.

As soon as I get home to Portland, I'll officially be a non-single person :)

For right now, we're doing the long-distance thing and we haven't officially declared ourselves boyfriend and girlfriend. It's kind of exciting. The way that I really feel right now, I HONESTLY haven't felt for 8 years when I was just starting to date Zach. Zach may have been my 3rd boyfriend at that point, but he was (in all sense of the word) my true first love. He and I were inseparable, did everything together and never grew tired of each other. That's what love should be like. I have that again now.

We went to high school together, but never really spent a whole lot of time talking or hanging out. Then he started dating my (now ex) best friend and we spent loads of time together. Then they broke up and we stopped talking. On the outside, I played the "Best Friend" role well, but on the inside, subconsciously, I was relieved that they were over. At the time I thought that it was because that meant she and I could spend more time together, but after much thought (recently), it was because I had developed feelings for him. Well, recently he found me on Facebook. We started talking again and come to find out, he's had feelings for me for a long time. So after much careful thought on my end, we decided we're going to try this out first with the long-distance, then with the actual dating when I get back.

Needless to say, we are both highly anxious for me to get home soon :) <3
