It's been a while, but he sent me a Facebook message. Madison, WI is only an hour ahead of me here in SD, and an hour behind my family/friends in VA. He had seen the photos of me dressed up as Medusa that I so desperately wanted him to see, but also wanted to hide. I looked fat in the costume.
It seems that he is only able to express his feelings late at night. Right before he goes to bed, or when he's very tired, he will say things that seem to make no sense, or sen me an email that is particularly endearing.
I had been distracted by the overwhelmingly obvious attraction my friend, Jessie, has for me and that beautiful stranger that comes into the library whenever I'm working. I discovered his name was Michael, and had a conversation with him today.
"It makes me very happy to hear from you", he said in tonight's message. All other things dim in comparison to the joy that I feel when I get something - anything - from him. But still, he withholds. I asked him about his week, and yet again, he avoided it. All he said was, "My week as okay," and after I asked him to tell me about it, he just said, "Thank you. Goodnight..."
I always imagine that last part whispered, and followed by a kiss to my forehead, and/or my hand, and then a parting of ways for the night. ^_^
