Blue Angel's AI Story

Hello. This is my very first post to Greek Chat! I'm yet another potential new member for AI.

I found "my home" and have been waiting for almost two years for initiation. I pursued AI before I ever even knew there was such a thing. Imagine my surprise when I stumbled upon this website and found there were so many others doing the same thing!

I'm told I've been approved by national, but don't yet have an initiation date. I did buy my dress, and am now waiting.. and waiting... and waiting

I hope you understand that I'm so close now... I don't want anything to get in the way, so I'm not going to reveal too much yet.

I will say that the road has been a very, very, very long one. It's been a bit frustrating at times, as it seems to be "hurry up and wait", "hurry up and wait".

As a long-time lurker here, I did want to say that I found the stories posted here quite inspiring and uplifting for me during the times when I was about to give up.

I still do not believe it's ever going to happen. We'll see

Thank you to Jill, Trojan, and MsHoole. Your kind words and support are appreciated. I'm keeping my fingers crossed too!

I think the hardest part is not knowing where the line is between showing interest and appearing too pushy. Had I not read how long others had waited, I probably would have taken it as a sign that it was never going to happen.

So for now, I'm just going to try to be patient a little while longer and see what develops. I've only gotten positive correspondence from this particular GLO, so I can only assume all is proceeding ahead.

If any other PNM's or AIs would like to correspond with me through PM, I'd love to. I think it helps to share experiences.

Much love,
Blue Angel
