A Rapid Change.

This is kinda a 2 part story..
Pt1
A few weeks ago I met a girl I've I hadn't seen for about 10 years over facebook, She had seen me comment on a mutual friends stauts, and seen my cd profile piccy. We began to message each other, and after chatting I realised she was kinda like me, she has issues going out in the town where we live, we began to chat daily and even over the fone, we had so much in common.

After about a week we met up one night in the local park and sat from about midnight til 4am chatting, we seem to have developed an instant trust, We were telling each other everything and we both felt so relaxed. It felt like we had know each other for years.

After realising I had feelings for this girl I decided to take the risk and let her know how I felt and that I wanted to be with her (date her) She said yes and We've now been dating for 2 weeks, things are going great.

So great that I have begun to I feel very motivated and happy yet again...sooo ......

Pt2
On Tuesday I woke up and felt in a great mood, I said to myself right thats it I've had enough of these same dam 4 walls...I just upped and went out, went to have my hair cut, went to the local pubs, was scary at first,heart beating fast, shaking like mad, but I soon adapted and all the fear just went away, the few beers probably helped too, felt like I'd just gone back to my old self.

After getting home and back into my sanctuary (bedroom) I had a little break down, maybe it was to much to soon? However the next few days I have been up and walking round the town center with no problems what so ever. I intend to go walking round town everyday to keep myself motivated and stop me falling into the same pattern I did years ago.

Next on the ajenda is to find a job.

Thanks if you took the time to read this, I know im terrible for reading walls of txt.

hummmm.. 4 walls or job.... hummm..... toss up to me. BUT money is a good thing. Seeing people regularly is a good thing (usually). And being the social animal that most people are is a good thing.

So I guess a job is okay..... Glad you are sharing that wonderful face with the world again, girl. Hug your motivator for me.
