Status

I’ve, expectedly, gotten a lot of notes asking about the status of Heather and me. I haven’t answered them because I’m not entirely sure how to. I can say with complete certainty that, after spending this past week with her, I love her more than I ever have. I can say with some certainty that she loves me as much as she ever has too.
 
But, I don’t know how to answer questions about our status and future, because the week we spent together wasn’t spent answering (or even asking) those questions. We only had a week to spend with one another and neither of us wanted to waste time worrying over past troubles or future uncertainties. I’m not sad that we didn’t worry about those things.
 
I will say that at the moment I feel more willing to do whatever it takes to see Heather and make our relationship work (whatever form it has) than ever before.  At the same time, no matter where we go from here I have no fears of feeling disgruntled or angry or used. I know I’m already lucky. It’s a shame that my past few entries have probably seemed a little melancholy, because the truth is on the whole I’m feeling the best I have in my life. I am still recovering from Heather being gone again and it’s a shame that I didn’t write any entries while she was here, but I was just too busy enjoying life to waste a second recording it. She just wrote an entry detailing our first day together (for those of you lucky enough to be on her favorites) and I may actually do the same soon, in a backwards sort of way. But, for now, just know that I’m extremely satisfied with how our week went and any sadness I have is just towards it being over and nothing more.
 
And, no, right now I can’t tell everyone my status with Heather by simply saying “She’s my girlfriend” or “We’ve decided to see other people.” But, in the end, I know I love her and I know she loves me. That is more revealing, meaningful, and unique than anything else I could tell you.
