I know, I know. Looking at the title, you’re probably thinking, “love can be cheesy”, right? But it can also be a super exciting adventure! Next Tuesday I’ll be at the two week mark and it’s still really hard to believe this is happening. I mean, to be in a committed relationship?! That’s crazy talk, yet the adrenaline rush is like drinking a Big Gulp full of coffee with 3-4 shots (or a whole pack of Monsters)! I’m not used to the happiness. I’m not. I feel like a bomb just dropped on my world (like those cheesy WWII short films) and my emotions are everywhere. I might be allowed to have a phone soon, so I’ll be able to chat and whatnot. She’s gorgeous and when we go on that date, it’ll be so exciting! Sure, she’s a few hours away (and probably really cold, ’cause Denver), but she’s a good pal and an even better girlfriend (that’s getting a little easier to say, now). I-I can’t concentrate well, but I just love her so much! Turns out I like different sides of people (I’d only go for, like-and don’t laugh at this too much-nerds or computer/game geeks, but she’s different and I like it much better). She’s also supportive of the gender fluid thing, so that’s cool, too. Graduation’s real soon and I’ll be a new man/woman/person (depends on where I’m at that day, I guess) and I think my personality and confidence is growing, too. I tried to ignore my feelings before, but, you know what? This is really nice. The bomb’s really nice. And I hated this love shit before, but I think I might actually be in love. Love!!! Am I going insane or is this natural? I wish I knew. My exes I only got with ’cause I was lonely and I had little feelings for them, but I feel like I could spend the rest of my life with her. She’s on my mind a lot and it’s really confusing. I’m going with it, but I’m worried. I’m doing what I can to trust her, but it’s really hard. I mean, don’t get me wrong, I trust her more than I trust anyone else, but I’m still worried. But, again, the bomb dropped and now I’m scattered in the ashes of confusion and bursting feelings.

Pretty much. Long distance is rough, but I’m hanging in.
