I could talk to him forever. It's always hard to hang up the phone. We are texting late into the night too- both of us having a hard time saying goodnight. We met 24 years ago. He's the only person who really knows me to my core- good, bad, ugly. He's everything I've ever wanted in a partner. A fit cognitively, spiritually and physically. I'll be connected to him in a very deep way whether we ever end up truly together or not. For the first 14 years, I thought we'd end up together at this stage of life. Then for the last 10 years, I thought there was no way it would happen. Very soon, we will both be in a position where we can possibly be together. We've been waiting a long time.
I was pretty insecure, clingy and jealous back then. I was so afraid of losing him. I think he felt too young to be that tied down too. He wanted to date other people and he dated someone else and then came back. Then a month later he wanted to date other people again. I was 19 and he was 20 so I get it. He will talk about how head over heels he was for me and how he has never been in a longa distance thing again because of how difficult it was for us to be apart during the summers. I might suggest we meet for lunch sometime when I'm on that side of the state again and see how it goes. He's close to Lake Michigan, where my future daughter in law is from. He lives in the town where she went to high school.

That’s great to hear you’re trying to establish something with a dude who knows you like that. What I don’t understand is what stopped y’all from getting together 24 years ago? Sounds like you’re creating boundaries that either aren’t there or boundaries that are easily torn down.
What’s wrong with being jealous? I think we all are to a degree. My girl is both clingy as hell and jealous, but I’ve gotten used to it. But jealousy is natural I think. Being clingy is one thing, but jealousy is normal, as long as it’s not being possessive.
Any of y’all the jealous type?

My auto-sig just means that the world system is a system that is built on selfishness, which is why the devil is in control of it. It’s predicated on appetites, desires, and mind-sets that contradict what the kingdom of God stands for. Everything this world system has to offer is based on greed, lust and pride, man.

Yeah, I feel you. I see it in how folks dress now and how social media has gone flat out mad. But you still gotta live in this world, PB.
