You know that thing I've been waiting for?
That certain someone (or possible someone) that seems to have kept me from dating, or meeting new people?

Remember how crazy/stupid that sounded?
(Unless you saw that as romantic, which I totally understand.)

Remember how many times I was just so "over" that, and ready to move on?

Remember how I got all mad a couple weeks ago, and finally was, really and truly, OVER IT?

Turns out, while I still feel it's true that I am no longer "waiting", that I'm finally free, emotionally, to allow others into my life (and heart), it seems that the wait is over.

This may not turn out like I wanted.
This may not work out at all, actually.
But at least, it's started.

And you know what? Whatever happens, I'm good with that.

(also, no matter how many times I try to tell myself I'm not, I am so in love with him. there, I said it.)
