but starting in a much better place: mutually delighted and entzückt!

I’m just so pleased that the last 3 1/2 months of going after Mr L have not been a mere fantasy and distraction, and have resulted in something really supexiting and sweet. I am slightly concerned that he’s the one who’s off his gourd at the moment; his declarations are really impressive. However: he’s basically a trusting, open soul with a big heart and no baggage who’s not afraid to take a chance, and – more importantly – I sense that he really gets me like no one else has in a long time. In other words, even though we still have plenty of getting to know each other to do, I get the sense that he’s actually seeing who I am. So, who knows, but so far, all signs are to the very, very good, and I am inspired to bravery myself.
