Ok so it took forever, but I finally have time to sit down and write out the details of the whole new boyfriend situation. Some of you may remember the excitement when the boycrush kissed me at that Halloween party a few weeks ago, and things have just kinda been building from there.

He's so sweet and cute and funny and a lot more...clean-cut i guess you could say, than what I usually go for, but that's part of what I like about him. We've been spending our breaks between classes together at school, talking on facebook after school (he's currently phone-less, and I just finally got a new phone last week), and he even left me a sweet little message in my facebook inbox that he missed me the day we didn't have school and that he hoped I felt better soon.

A couple days after that, I was finally feeling up to leaving the house so he took me to Melt in Lakewood. It was a two-hour wait, so we went for coffee first and stopped in at the exchange and picked up some cheap goods (some jokes were made about certain musical preferences, but it was all in good fun) before heading back to the restaurant to eat. Best. Sandwich. Ever. I had the grilled peanut butter and banana, and I think I have a new favorite food. Fucking delicious, not to mention that we were already having such a great time anyway.

After dinner we went back to his house and watched Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (which was awesome), broken up only by the occasional short makeout session (also awesome). We sat and talked and listened to records for a bit before I had to go home. He walked me to the door and gave me a goodnight kiss and everything, it was all just so perfect!

We've been talking and hanging out more since then, and the other day at school he threw the words "my lady" into a sentence and we ended up discussing things further and finally making it official. I've been taking things a lot slower than I usually do since my last couple relationships ended so terribly, but he doesn't seem to mind so I think that's a good sign. I'm really happy about the idea of being in a relationship again, but at the same time I'm kinda testing the water to see if I'm really as ready for all of this as I think I am. I don't want to rush things and lose all of the romance so soon like the last time. I really like this guy a lot, and I really want this to work out. I feel like he could be good for me.

We have plans to spend Thanksgiving together and everything, I'm so excited! I'm actually happy to be going to school tomorrow so I can see him again!
