30 Day Challenge

It's been 30 days since Mitch told me that he wanted me back, and I gave him 30 days to prove to me that what we had was worth holding onto, and in doing so, make me break a rule I've held onto since I first started dating.

I've decided that my relationship with Mitch is worth that and more. In these 30 days, we've had more than our fair share of fights. However, I think it was for the best because I have my resolution and I can now let things go. He has been patient while I was berating him and venting my anger and frustration. He has also been mindful of my feelings and my desires. In turn, I slowly opened up to him. And every day, I feel like I open up just a little bit more. I'm not sure there will be an end to how close we can become - that's how I feel when I'm with him.

There is just one little fear I have... Mitch and I have been spending tons of time together (nearly 2 out of every 3 days) and I'm worried that:

1) We will start getting bored with each other
2) Our personal social lives will suffer as a result of it
3) We won't accomplish our own individual projects for lack of free time alone
4) We will freak out and separate because we "need some space"

The other side of this coin is that I freak out when I can't contact him or I don't know what he is doing... So, it's a damned if you do, and damned if you don't sort of deal.

Don't get me wrong... I love seeing and being with Mitch on a daily basis. But I know he wants to get things done and he doesn't have the free time to invest in it because he is with me. I also know he is neglecting his social circle in lieu of time with me. And I don't know when his battery might suffer a power failure. And honestly, all of the above goes for me as well.

All in all, I'm very happy :) I just hope I make him just as happy and he smiles when he thinks of me :)
