Hello all,
I know this is probably going to come as a surprise to a lot of you, but Ricky & I have parted ways romantically. For the past few months, it had become increasingly clear that we weren't a good match for the long-term. If anyone wants more details, feel free to e-mail me at stacey22478@hotmail.com (there were a LOT of little things and a couple of big things that added up). But for now, all I really want to say is that it wasn't working. I started to realize that I wasn't as happy as I was early on in the relationship. I didn't post about it much here because I didn't want to take a chance that he'd come across it somehow.
But the good news is that it was pretty much mutual and we agreed that we were better off as friends. So we're going to keep in touch. We still have to get together to give eachother our things back, which will be sometime this week.
One kind of big thing is that I've been getting increasingly involved with the dance team, so just about every weekend, I'm out doing demos with my dance team members. And I'm having SUCH a good time. But it was getting to the point where I was hardly seeing him.
Anyway, I won't take up too much board space with details. Like I said, if you want "dirt" (lol), shoot me an e-mail. :)

You sound like you are doing great and I hope that is the case. Mutual breakups are, in a way, so much easier....sounds like you both could really talk and see what was wrong and realize what the best decision was, together.
I hope you and others realize that your story is absolutely an OLD success!!! You met a nice guy, you both hit it off, there were no games, you took things further to get to know each other...Even though the end result isn't the whole marriage thing, it is still a HUGE success.
Take time for yourself to be sure you are ok. Glad to hear the dancing thing is still a focus for you. Keep your chin up!!

Wow, sorry to hear about the breakup! Regardless you guys seemed to have a very healthy relationship and it's nice when you can mutually agree to just being friends. Glad you have your dance team to keep you busy, cause I'm sure you will have some "sad" days but the Board is here to listen and encourage.
In time I'm sure you will be sharing future OLD or IRL dates!! Stay positive!!!
Awwww, Stacey, I'm sorry to hear about you and Ricky; I was rooting for you guys. It sounds like you're handling it very well, though. And it sounds like you're very busy with your dance team, so there'll be no time for you to sit and mope around :) Good for you for realizing you weren't getting what you need from the relationship.
Keep smiling!!!

Thanks, Holly! :)
Just a quick funny story for you all to show you guys I'm so not moping - I was out Saturday night living it up at the country dance club and the band was playing the Dixie Chicks song "If I Fall You're Going Down With Me." I pretended to "fall" and a really cute guy stuck out his hand to help me up. (I think he thought I really fell). It was so fun!!! :)
It sounds like you made the right decision, and from your story about the night of being caught by handsome strangers, it sounds like you aren't going to have to wait long to to find the right person!!
