Transitional Man! Fighting to save Kara from the evils of her ex! I'm really, really hoping that Rob isn't Transitional Man. Because this really has some serious potential. He's good looking, sweet, really funny, and we have everything, and I mean almost EVERYTHING in common. It's really scary how confident
I feel about the whole deal. I mean, I'm taking my time and taking it slow because I'm nervous that I
will frighten him away or I'll frighten myself, or I'll realize that he's Transitional Man and that
would hurt both of us.
But, how do you know? I mean, things hadn't been right with Fiid for a really long time, and I even got
back in touch with one of my ex boyfriends back in June because things were getting so bad. I loved
him, but I knew that the relationship was failing, so I was more or less prepared for the breakup. (I
just was NOT prepared to move out of my own house.) So, a couple weeks after the breakup, I felt
much happier, and ready to date. So, I don't honestly think that Rob is Transitional Man.
On the other hand, Fiid and I have only been broken up for a month and a half (a little more than that).
That's not really, logically, enough healing time, is it? I mean, I had plenty of time to heal and
deal during the summer, and getting out of the house was a major relief.
So, I told Rob that I just wanted to chill and go with the flow, not worry about if this was going to
turn into a relationship that's more than friends because I'm still figuring out my deal. He was sort
of strange at first, but he really seemed to understand. He told me I'm worrying too much, that I
should just take stuff as it comes and enjoy myself, and enjoy spending time together, and not to
over analyze things. Maybe he's right. But I can't stop myself from thinking, ya know?
Anyway, if anyone has any light to shed, any advice (meaning, did I do the right thing?), please
post here or MOOmail me. :-)
