the high and low of it
My teacher set an assignment to better help our self esteem (it's a personal development class) and we had to set some plans in motion following closely his and the text books advice. It seemed kind of silly to me because he says to make the plans and act on them in the same day, which isn't allways possible, but that's another bucket of cheese.
What the real kicker was that step number 2 is to be more honest. I'm not sure that he knew I have been holding something back from everyone but my best friend, but I saw step number two as my excuse to get it off my chest finally. I have a boyfriend! And i've had him for almost a month now. I just never told anyone because it's one of those relationships that aren't ideal. So un-ideal that I've already tried it out once and I'm going for it again. Another reason I never said anything was because it is a long distance relationship, so it's hard for me to feel like it's real. Maybe it's not as official as "boyfriend" and all that technical nonsense, but it's something.
Another reason I can't keep up the charade, especially to my mom, is because he's moving to L.A. with his sister. That's only an hour north. Perhaps thats 'long distance' but nearly as bad as it was. I imagine that it'll be less easy to hide if he actually shows up on my doorstep. Plus it's not fair to him to continue ignoring his presence. So there you have it, McPaige has revealed the big secret. Not to mom yet, she's a little too busy at work right this moment, but she said she'd call me in an hour. Then I'll drop the bomb. (yes, it'll be a bomb because she didn't like him the first time I dated him, and thats when he was millions of miles away) We'll see.
