reconnection

back in july '08, maybe early august, i met a guy that i quickly fell hard for. we spent days on the lake and any spare time together. i hung out with his friends and they were always happy to see me whenever we went out. as crazy as it was, we were even gonna elope in vegas! he did work on my aunt's new home at a fabulously discounted $$. things were going very well. then the ol' ex started coming around. she threw a wrench in my gears. he told me that he'd be lying if he said he didn't still have feelings for her. said he wanted to give it another go. they had several years of history. so i let him go (reminds me of that old saying about letting something go and if it comes back to you...). a few days and a bottle of whiskey later, i moved on. of course i thougt about him off and on throughout the last 10 months. i was driving home on tuesday and was thinking about him and one of his BFF's. she and i got along very well. when i got home i had a myspace friend request from her saying that chris was "dying to reconnect" with me but was scared that i hated him. i try not to waste my positive energy hating people. i had his number still so i text him. all it said was "guess who... i don't hate you." he quickly responded and then called me and we were talking for 2 HOURS!!! he said that after he called things off with us he felt like he was making a mistake but had to see what would happen with the ex. just as i predicted, she went right back to being the girl he broke up with in the first place. so he and i are going out to dinner tonight. i'm strangely excited about this.
