So so, now he still lives in la Réunion.
Here’s something new; he phoned today, telling me that there would be two commissions at the ministry to examine relocation applications. Needless to say, he applied for the metropolitan territory, preferably Paris, and he’s got 50 to 75% chances to get it. Über-yipee, you would say.
Mais non. Here comes NeuroticMe again. It’s gonna be real. Like, he moves for me. My thoughts flow: but what if it turns out we break up? What if I simply stop being in love? What if it just doesn’t work, then?
I know it’s everything but chance that made us go out together on the very day he got his relocation from Strasbourg to la Réunion. Then no worries, NeuroticMe thinks: he’ll be far away, as in “it won’t be for real”. So I went for it, knowing that he’d leave.
But now, it’s different. He’s doing things for which I’m the only reason. And it’s bloody scary! I feel a big, big weight on my shoulders. What if, what if, and more what-ifs. Not to talk about when we’ll have the opportunity to move in.
I’ll have to teach NeuroticMe how not to ruin a golden relationship like this one by the fear of real things.
