My boyfriend told me he thinks he is in it for the long haul!
I still don't know quite what to feel. My breath just got caught in my throat, and still is, my heart is beating like the heavy metal drummer from hell and my legs definitely cannot carry me. All I want to do is kiss him, and hold him, and hear him say it again and say it back.
At the same time, the thought of the long haul! The thought of one day moving from my family home, away from the security I've always known. I do want to. Though a big part of me is feeling like crying at the thought. The thought of one day, actually having him propose. Of marrying him. Of having a family of my own...all these thoughts are of course rushing way ahead of where we stand right now, at this moment. But, oh! Just having my thoughts put in words, to know that right now, at this moment, he lays in his bed and loves me as much as I love him...it is harder to grasp, harder to really understand than any theory I have ever read. And still, so natural, so reasonable, so easy to grasp...
I need to get pen and paper, and write for a bit or read or something and try not to thin about it, or I will never be able to go to sleep. But oh, how can I?
I'm sorry, I just had to share it with someone right now.
