Well...crush had to go to Nashville this weekend b/c his grandmother has been ill. He left yesterday morning and got back tonight.
He called me after he got back into town and chatted with me for a while. After about 10 minutes on phone, he said, so are you watching tv? I said yeah (I was really laying in bed...lol). He said, well...why don't you turn some more lights on and come open your door. So, Leah and I went to the front door, not really expecting to see him - thinking he was just joking, but there he was getting out of his truck. I had to run to my room, change from my pj's, brush my hair, etc...lol. When I got back into the living room, crush had given Leah a card to give me. He had put on the envelope: To Mommy, Love Leah. It was the sweetest card! Then...he gave me one from him! I couldn't stop smiling (esp. since my day at work had been so hard and long, and my own mother didn't even wish me a happy mother's day...lol). Then he came and sat next to me and told me that he was sorry, that he had planned on getting me flowers and giving them to Leah to give to me, but by the time they got back into town the store was closed. But hey...I don't care! It's the thought that counts, and I'm just as happy with the cards!
I'm scared! I so very much like him, and he's different this go around, and really trying to prove himself in a lot of ways (or so it seems). Even after having all these feelings for him, I'm still really reserved around him. I'm so scared that I'm gonna get hurt again. I keep saying that this is a normal way to feel considering everything, but when should I just let go and then, how?
But I do like him, a lot...and he makes me so happy, he's so good with Leah, he's so sweet, etc...I could go on and on. And trust me...I've seen the good side of him and the bad, so it's not like I'm looking at him with rose colored glasses on (completely).
All I can say at this point is: I'm TRYING to take everything one step at a time, I'm very smitten (twitterpated..lol), scared, and completely drawn to him!

Well, Kait, whether you're scared or not, and who could blame you, really, it was a very sweet thing he did! It's great that he's good with Leah. Most men, if they even rememebered to get you a card would not think to get you one from your daughter, and that is a thoughtful thing to do.
Huge bonus points in my book!
Don't let go completely yet... things may be moving along slowly, but you're happy, and he's being patient with you. He obviously knows he made a mistake with you last time, and that's a good thing. I think things are going well now, and there's really no rush.
Between school, problems with your ex, the slimeball lawyer, work, and all of the other stress that being comes with being a single mom, you don't need to add to it by rushing things with crush- take your time and enjoy being twitterpated!

I agree with Moody!
Just take your time and allow him to gain your trust over time. We are enjoying the story!
Oh my gosh! I know so how you feel!!!! I have a crush as well, but with him I can't tell if he is interested or not. Well, I think he is but then sometimes I don't think he is ( I hate the new emotions).
I really beieve in taking it slow and letting him take the lead! Your guy seems great. He seemed to have scored major points with the card!
This crush stuff is so new to me as an adult, I hated them when I was younger and still hate them. I totally feel like I am 16 when he is around, I can't talk, I don't know how to act...
Best of luck with your crush!!!!
