Zeppelindude

OK, I should explain this one. I’m 35 and recently divorced. Way back in high school and junior high I was infatuated with this gorgeous blonde girl in my class. She had amazing blue eyes, a good sense of humor, and a smile that could light up the room. We knew each other but not all that well. I was tall and lanky and not very attractive. I didn’t have a crush on her, but I couldn’t stop looking at her when she was in the room. She was just too amazing. Suffice to say, I really didn’t have a chance of going out with her.

Fast forward 20 years. We connected on Facebook and started talking. She was also going through a difficult divorce. We shared our stories and really connected on a lot of things. Long story short, I’ve been seeing her for 6 months now. She’s still cute, but it’s really not about that at this point. She’s a really fantastic person now, much more so than when we were younger. I look forward to every chance I get to be with her. She also gives amazing kisses that make me lightheaded. :)

This one is going to be a hard one for me because I have a bad habit of beating myself up over it. I find myself saying things like “I should have done…” but I know I’ve got to put it behind me and move forward. It’s easier said than done.

Here’s the good news. Making my list on this website is already helping me with this goal. I figure if I’m starting my life over, I should make a list of fun and exciting things to do. I can already feel myself getting more interested in future possibilities and thinking less about the past.
