A Slight Update

I'm much too busy to talk about all the things I'm doing right now, and much too exhausted by them to describe them. But:

I don't like to use the word "love" casually - and I refuse to tell someone I love them if I don't mean it, or if I'm not pretty damn sure it's true. So, that said, C and I are "in love". I can't speak for the future, and we're both very bad at making allowances for each other's beliefs and emotional quirks.

We're both bruised romantics, both have difficulty believing the other genuinely wants to be with them, and sometimes it feels like a contest to see who can be the most cynical and hardnosed. We don't depend on each other, and we don't need to be in constant communication.

But I do love him. There are so many ways we 'click' together, it's worth the effort to work out the (relatively small) problems.

I'll write more, possibly at tedious length, when I have the strength.
