...only took over a year!

We'd been talking a lot over Facebook since August, and I met up with him a couple of times at the end of the summer and really enjoyed it...basically, those phases when it felt like I had a huge crush on him kinda became permanent.
It still took a nudge from my counsellor for me to talk to him about it, though, and even then I could only do it over Facebook instead of in person, which I'm annoyed at myself about because I was really hoping I'd be able to do it properly.

But luckily he didn't mind at all, and we've been officially "more than friends" for a week now...it's funny, even a few months ago I'd never have thought this would happen, but I'm so happy!
Just thought I'd share, and say thanks again to everyone who's supported me through this whole rather confusing situation.
