upswing

I am still very upset with Tod, but a lot of the pain has gone away. I don't know if it was something that just kinda happened with time or if it had anything to do with John inviting me to accept a free "anonymously paid for" flight to visit Heidi and John this weekend

If Tod treats me extremely well this weekend, we just might date. Otherwise, I will tell him "sayoonara" and continue with my plans.

Don't be too worried. My stubbornness resulted in me holding on for so long and it will probably work conversely, also: probably assisting me to hold out unless his behavior is absolutely perfect. He has explained to me multiple times that he didn't want to hurt me by dating long distance and missed the fact that I was willing to date long distance anyway. Finally giving up and deciding not to date was a decision I made on my own time. Deciding to date will also be an unhurried decision that I will take my time with and look at

The nice thing about this flight is that I'm flying Southwest Airlines--we're allowed two free checked bags. I think I will start moving my non-daily necessities and have everything I need for the weekend in my bookbag and laptop case.


...and I will take Aunt Karen's advice and work on just me for a while

I'm glad you're feeling up about things. I'd definitely keep Aunt Karen's advice and focus on you for a while. Are you going to be in SC during Christmas?

Just so you know I have nothing against Tod. I don't know him. I'm only going by what you've said about the way he has treated you. I just think he really kind of blew it, and I'd be wary of getting too involved with him even if it means cuddles. That's just the physical stuff and any guy can give you that. There really are a lot of wonderful guys out there. I just wouldn't want you to settle just so you feel loved. You're still very young. And you are loved! Right here by a lot of people!

Have fun in CA! Just be careful. K? I love you!
