Um, how do I say this....

... oh, I'm no longer single.

Whew! There. I said it.
So I happened to meet this guy online at the end of July and we just HIT it off for some reason. We chatted online everyday (still do, in fact) then we decided to meet IRL. The first meeting happened over Labor Day weekend.

We had fun watching movies, listening to music and getting to know each other in real life.

Despite my frazzled nerves, there was still a connection with our face to face meeting, and after some discussion, we decided to date each other exclusively.

I'm still taking it slow, because I have A LOT of fear when it comes to relationships. Fear of getting hurt, fear of hurting someone else, fear of abandonment, etc... Let's just sum it up by saying I have issues. Gah, I hate admitting things like that.... makes me feel so, um, human.

Anyway, school is about to start in just over a week. Still gotta iron out my schedule and figure out the book situation. Oh, and mentally prepare for giving up the sad little social life that I've celebrated over the past few months.

Oh, you want to know about my boyfriend? His name is Matt, he's two years younger than me, he is into metal, playing guitar, video games, movies... oh, and me. :D He lives in Vancouver, WA.

He and I are crazy in sync and often say the same things at the same time. We are close in age which makes it fun when we make pop culture references. :D

Most importantly, he gets me. Oh, and I get him, too. That part of this whole this is really new, different, mindblowing, astonishing and well, pretty stellar.

We are in the relationship infancy where everything is so sweet and sappy. We already have lots of inside jokes... just between us. :D

So anyway, just wish me (us) luck.

Love is a battlefield....
