Journal Surak's Journal: Time to be mature and adult about this 16

Journal by Surak

Okay, she's not playing games. She's really not ready for a relationship. I talked to her about it, and she really is not ready for any kind of relationship at this point with anyone. Her LJBF move was not a rejection of me, just a rejection of any sort of relationship at this point.

I've found that she's really matured in the last year and a half, and that she's really at a place in her life that right now, she knows what she needs to be concentrating on.

She needs to get her life in order so that she can provide for this baby she's having. She doesn't want to have to rely on anyone to take care of her or the baby.

I think it's a very mature, and responsible attitude, and one that really surprises me given how immature she was about relationships a year and a half ago. She's changing into a new person, and I respect her for that.

She recognizes that there may be a relationship in store for us in the future, but who knows? Neither she or I are going to wait one second for it. I'm moving on while she figures out the rest of her life. IF that includes me, so be it, if not, oh well. She takes the chance that I could be with someone else by the time that she comes around, and she respects that.

Yeah, yeah, go on and raz me. I don't care. I know what I know and that's what I know. ;)

Oh yeah, thanks for everyone's input. And special thanks to Bethanie, SolemnDragon, MC Hampster, and the imaginary bunny man, Elwood, FortKnox, and anyone else I may have missed. :) (This is like an Oscar speech or soemthing ;) You all had special insights and I appreciate them all!

    BEAUTIFUL!

    Happy to hear it.
  • *baby?*

    oke i missed that part or i would have told you to sooner!! Yes. I'm glad she's feeling grownup, if there's a bibbitt in the picture!

    but let us know how it goes, oke?

    • Not my bibbitt. ;)

      Read the rest of my journals on this, especially my comments. It gets weird. Very weird. *JERRY SPRINGER* weird. ;)

  • Glad to hear she's getting more mature. I hope a baby would do that to anybody, but I know too many that it hasn't done that too. (OTOH, getting *too* matuer is not a good thing either.)

    Not hanging on to her while she figures it out is also a great idea. Kids change everything, and you might find out she's worth having a relationship with later, or you might find out you're not going to fit in anywhere. You might find out she turns into a psycho !@#$ under the streeses of having a kid. Who knows, but

      Yep. It's a hard path to take. It means for me growing up a little bit. I love her, I really do. And I k
