I have a boyfriend. Again. I know, I have one more often than not, but meh. I don't want to hear how I should be strong on my own. I'm fine on my own. I just like being taken.
Anyway, his name is Eric, and he's tall, sweet, and for now, mine. We met at a con last year, he came out for the same con this year, and we hit it off. We've talked in between, quite a lot. I was crushing on him when I met him, but I was taken, and when one of us was free, the other was taken in the interim. It was sweet the way he asked me out. Kissed me, sweetly, gently, at the I-CON masquerade. It was so romantic (almost cheesily so, but I like cheesy. Mmm, cheese.)
But now I have to worry about the other boys in my life. D, while I told him I was going after Eric, and he claims he wants me to be happy, it's clear he's not happy. "the girl i love is happy but taken" is a direct quote taken from a conversation with him from today. M isn't taking it well either. We had thought that we would have another chance, but no action was taken when I would bring it up. He says he was planning something for the trip we're taking next week, but as he keeps pointing out, apparently I'm fairly attractive. And people want me. T doesn't know yet (as many people as I've told, I'm not fully shouting it from the rooftops. I'm not hiding it from him, I just haven't yet talked to him. He's not going to be happy either.
I don't know what to do. I want to be happy, and right now, I am happy with Eric (granted it's only been about 24 hours since he kissed me, but still.) But I'm tired of so many other people needing me to be happy. I want them to want me in their lives. But none of them has had a girlfriend that I'm aware of since me. That's not good.
I have work to do. I'll keep you posted.
I-CON as a whole went really well though. We kept overflowing the rooms we were assigned to. Which is awesome, but made the con more stressful than I think it needed to be. But I am pleased with the outcome.
life,
