Hi Donna,

I thought you would have posted by now - how did it go last night? I hope you had a great time! Maybe it continued into today and you called in sick?!!! ;)

wow, thanks for asking. I had off work today but picked up my son and went to visit my parents and grandmother. Seeing real-life guy was amazing - major understatement. He was even better looking than I remember him being 2 yrs ago! He is my kryptonite, I'm very week around him. We went to dinner then back to my house, and yes, he spent the night (I kinda expected that). But I've been thinking alot today and I really need to let him go. When I'm with him I feel like I'm going backwards and not forwards. And I always remember that when you go backwards you trip. It was what is was and that's all. I'll probably be crying about it in a few days, but that's just the emotional me!!

Sometimes you have to go backwards to go forwards.

Hi Donna,

Sorry I'm so late in answering you, I was gone this weekend and just returned today. I'm glad to hear that you had a real nice time with real-life guy, but I'm also glad that you are realistic about what it was also. I know it's hard, but some things just aren't meant to be, unfortunately.

A guy in your life that is available to you emotionally and on all levels would be better IMHO! But diversions can be nice as long as we keep them in their proper perspectives. Yeah right - easier said than done right?! If I feel I have to cry, I try to give myself a time frame to do it in, like say a day or two, and then I tell myself that I am going to drop it by a certain date and get on with making my life better. I'm also an emotional person, so I do understand. Hang in there Donna. I hope that you had a wonderful visit with your parents and grandmother and had a nice Easter.

Basically I know this guy can offer me nothing, so that's why I know it was just a friends w/benefits encounter. And, he hasn't called me since he left, which kinda surprises me but I'm okay with that. onward and upward....
