Welcome to Gaia! ::

Heh, a lot has happened over the weekend. Let me know how you've been first and then I'll explain.

Sounds good. Alright, how should I start this? um..alright. On saturday, I was talking with this guy I've known for like 9 nine years named Chris on faceboo, and I kind of got annoyed with him so I ended up texting a mutual friend of ours that I've know just as long. A girl we call Ko so I could kind of vent, anyways, while I was texting Ko to vent, I ended up getting a new message from Chris with him pretty much saying something that cleared up everything that had me annoyed. I told Ko that everything was fine after I got that message and then she ended up going to sleep due to some medicine she's been on lately due to having surgery. The stuff has kind of made her a little loony when she takes it. Anyways, not long after she went to sleep, some romantic interest in her kind of just hit me out of nowhere. Nothing too serious, just an interest in dating her but she had told me years ago that she wasn't interested so this kind of had me worried. I talked with Chris about that for a while and he just said to tell her whenever I end up meeting her in person. As I haven't meet either one in person yet. I did not get any sleep at all that night because I kept debating on if I should tell her at all and if so, when should I? So, I ended up telling her on sunday before I went to my TCG league, her answer kind of caught me off guard as I was expecting just a straight no and thought nothing would change or that I might of freaked her out and possibly hurt the friendship. However, she gave me a maybe. I think her exact words were, "There's a chance but don't get your hopes up too high" After I got to League, I ended up texting her before anyone got there as I get there before league officially starts and she kept texting me wanting to know why I was interested in her which due to that, after people were there, I was unable to focus on most of my matches so I did pretty poorly. We ended up talking on Facebook after I got home though and we just got to know each other better in one day than we had known each other over all the years we've been friends. In a weird way, we're both on the same mindset with this. We're good with the idea of dating but we'd be just as happy as friends and would want to remain friends even if we did date but things didn't work out. It's really weird, it's changed our friendship for sure but not in a bad way. She's planning on coming here to visit for a week sometime next year. We haven't set up a certain date for her to visit just yet. I think that sums up everything pretty much.

Yeah, I met her online on a beyblade forum in like 03.

Yeah, I strongly dislike the idea but for her, I'll make an exception.

It's one of those, it either happens or it doesn't. It doesn't make much of a difference to us but I do kind of hope it works out given that my past romantic interests never gave me a chance and she's at least willing to. Also I'm not sure if it'll let you see her profile picture on FB if you don't have an account but I'm going to link you to her page in the off chance it does. So you can kind of understand what I'm dealing with at least as far as looks. https://www.facebook.com/kristina.j.james
