I want to say one more thing about this whole situation. I’ve had a lot of time to reflect on it and I realized a few things. I had met three women in a short time period. Two of them were easy to impress and they were both really into me from the start but it never felt like it could grow from where it started. That’s where the other woman was different.
From our time talking before we met, and starting with the first time I met her, there was an ease to being around her. It felt so comfortable spending time with her. Heck, the second date we had, I helped her put her bed together and I had a good time.
People can say I never really knew her but she shared a lot about herself. I would get texts with photos with her and her daughter, and what they were doing. She was bringing me into her life and it felt good to be part of it. After we met, I found that she grew up in the same town as me , and I knew her brother quite well. I knew a lot about her family.
I think I started to want things to move along quicker and I scared her off. When I think of it now, and I am not ashamed to say it, I was starting to fall in love with her. Honesty, it felt so comfortable being around her, I could have easily fallen into a relationship with her. She was the type of woman I could have felt great about coming home to everyday and that’s why it’s so difficult to not think about her.
The other two women just didn’t have what she had.
