Has it really happened??

I was feeling the stress last month of being single and dating men, as you can read in my post Getting Stuff Out of My Head. I was torn between a couple of different guys I was crushing on.  Nothing was leading anywhere. Each one had their own issues and frankly, I was just giving up. 

Valentine's Day weekend.....  I had plans of going out and I did.  Met up with a couple of friends and some guys I was interested in.  Saturday night, I ended up getting invited to this place for Karaoke by a good friend of mine.  I drug along the one guy friend and was kinda hoping for something to click with.  Ya know, because I was on the fence and wasn't sure which way to lean.  But well into the evening, it became pretty clear that this relationship was strictly friendship.  I can respect that.  Then it happened....

I was having a great time, no expectations.  This group of people who sat across from us was talkin and laughing and having a good time and we were just kinda sitting there.  So I thought to be friendly and introduce myself and strike up a convo.  One of the guys wanted to sing so I told him I would do a duet.  One of the other guys was sort of being too friendly with me.  Didn't care for him at all.... but the third guy was sort of off in his own world and didn't talk to me.  I went back to my seat and we were all chatting about what to sing, and guy three (Rob) leaned over to ask me what the song was.  I couldn't hear him so I motioned for him to come closer. When he did, our eyes locked.  I became so overwhelmed by his light blue eyes, that I just blurted out, "Wow, you have gorgeous blue eyes!"  He got this very embarrassed sly grin on his face which I thought was very cute too.

I got called away from one of my friends and sort of forgot about this sweet encounter.  It was time for me to sing a song with my other guy friend.  We did and I had a great time doing it!  When I was done, this amazing blue eyed guy was waiting for me by the table and called me over.  He told me he was leaving and would like to know if he could have my number. 

Now, I'm not a chick who guys tend to flaunt over.  I go out knowing that I'm not the prettiest, thinnest, best catch of the night. I just don't care because I am just out to have a good time.  I've had guys come up to me and flirt, but it is so rare that I am just floored every time it happens.  But when it does, it never leads to anything and I never hear from the guys again.  Fine by me... I live in the moment and it is flattering when something like that happens.

So when he asked me for my number, I gave it to him, but never expected him to call me.  He left and I went back to my group to continue the night.  Not too much later, I see him coming back and motion for me to come talk to him.  We hung out the rest of the night, it was very sweet and I felt like he was really interested in me rather than just some guy flirting.

Flash forward this past weekend.....  we have officially become boyfriend and girlfriend.  :)  

We agreed to take it slow, neither of us want to get hurt or have any drama in our lives, so slow is the way to go.

Yeah, there is a big chunk of time missing there.... let me just say, it was possibly the best week I have had in a very long long time!!!!  And that is all ya need to know.  :)

We'll see where it all leads.......
