Note to Self

Dear Millie,

This is a letter to yourself to remind you to slow it down a little. Remember, just because someone isn't as open and outgoing as you, doesn't mean they aren't just as interested. He wouldn't be talking about going to Chicago with you to see a Cubs/Astros game in April if he wasn't totally smitten with you. Quit being so quick to sabotage this. THIS is the relationship you've been waiting for. He isn't Derek, he isn't going to "fall out of love" with you one Friday night. Granted, love is a bit of a strong word, I know you can foresee it happening with him. I know you anticipate only great things from this relationship. So remember, focus on being yourself. He likes you, he's just as smitten and probably just as freaked out about you as you are of him. You both admit this relationship was very unexpected. Enjoy it!

Love,

Millie
