Feeling pretty good today; it is Wendigo's birthday so I stayed up late chatting with him on Skype just so I could wish him a happy birthday. We are getting together Thursday and having tacos and coffee and I am really looking forward to the new game we will be starting that evening. The best thing about our Thursday night gaming group is that everyone knows about our relationship, so I don't have to hide anything.

I forgot to go to the mailbox Friday. So today, on my way home from doing some work, I stopped to retrieve my mail.

In it, was a belated Christmas card, with a lovey-dovey letter inside, from a girl I met 20 years ago. We were friends who had 'intimate moments' over the years, before I moved away.

Anyhow...how bloody sweet is that ? To surprise me in such a way.
I`ve been sweetly reminiscing old-times, all afternoon !

It's such a liberating feeling to not have to hide, isn't it?

As an update...my bf has told his mother about our relationship. She does not approve, at all. I probably won't meet her now.

Yeah, it does. There are so many valid reasons to hide, but sometimes it is hard. But the friends we will be gaming with have known for over a year.... Actually, I declined the chance to take my friendship with Purple to the next level because Wendigo and I fell for each other; 2 1/2 years later and I am happy I made the decision I did.

Default Let's see...

...how'm I doing today? Hmmm. Well, this morning I concluded that my life just pretty much sucks right now. That's it. Whee!

Today is my dad's birthday; he would have been fourty nine today. He died a couple of days after his 40th. Some years his birthday and the anniversary of his death come and go without notice. This is not one of those years.
In addition to that, I decided I was tired of my feelings for Madscientist driving me crazy, so I told him. I did not tell him in the hopes of something coming from it, I honestly don't know if that's what I would want, but I was just tired of it hanging over my head. I told him I didn't want to hang out for awhile so I could try and deal with the feelings.
After that we sat around talking about our very different forms of communication and how he didn't agree with societal conventions but was having trouble working around them. Like most of the conversations between the two of us it was enjoyable and confusing at the same time. So I feel relieved that it's off my chest but I don't know.

I have to go downtown and report for jury duty today. They have wi-fi at the courthouse and we're allowed to bring our laptops, so it shouldn't be too bad. I'm actually looking forward to it.

After a bit of thinking and reading marksbabygirl's thread "Love you but," I've come to the conclusion that lust is not the main thing driving my feelings for Madscientist. I am not denying that is a part, but it is a very small part. He is lonely and hurting, it shows and I would love nothing more than to make him feel better.
He is funny and brilliant; I enjoy spending time with him and would love to spend more time with him. I would love to be closer to him but if that's not a possibility, I don't want to be jealous/hate someone who does make him happy.
I want/need to be able to accept things as they are.
