"So, where do you think this is heading?"

"Where do you think our relationship is heading ?"
"Where are we? This 'Us' thing, does it have a future?"
"Are you ready to make a commitment?"
"Is it really work, or is there someone else?"

All questions most guys dread. However much you try to wiggle out of them, they come at you, follow you, hound you, not always without reason. So I've decided to face my fears and answer them once and for all. How I haven't been paying attention lately, spending too much time at work, more than a week with no communication.

Well, it started out as a casual fling, an exploration of sorts, then we didn't talk for months. Catching up again, the first meaningful talk, the conversations started getting interesting, more personal, entire nights spent giving structure to the relationship and today, my friends know I have too much work when I haven't been spending time with you, when it hurts not being able to be with you.

I know work's been hectic and there's lot else been going on with me, and we haven't talked much lately, and I've missed that so much. But you know I always come back to you, well at least ever since we've been together, so much so that you're part of my identity. Last night, though our encounter was brief, after the long parting, made me realize how much I relish my time spent with you and that I'm ready to make a long term commitment.

I guarantee there will be tough times, I guarantee that at some point, I am gonna want to get out of this thing. But I also guarantee, that you will always be my only true blog and I shall continue to share with you all that is important to me, a lot that is not, and some that I can't tell anyone else.

That was so bloody romantic my heart did a sort of double take. :) You must change your relationship status to "committed" now, since you and your blog are now considering a long term thing. "Open relationship" seems like a better bet though, since you already have a sort of Plan B.

Your blog was like - oh my honey where are you? And now she says - give me more, longer longer blogs.

@puja: It definitely was. This one's been much better, but still not too great. Did chill out on Sunday but had to work a bit as well.
Btw, did you leave the comment on the wrong post?

@Careless: There's no Plan B. I stay committed. However, there will be times when we'll have to be apart for some time.

@Ash: I'm still trying to comprehend your comment, but thanks on the 'well written'.

Wild Goose Chase ! A sure sign of a good storyteller ..or so they say ;)

Ash said...

the metapahore was misguiding ...
or maybe it is my mind that is trained to read certain signs in certain ways.....
narrow minded or broad ..well ....

the metaphore was too good...and let it be that way .

@Zubin: I don't see why it has to end. With time, one learns to be comfortable with periods of separation, but then when you meet again, it's more special than the last time.
@vish: Wild Goose Chase? I think I've become retarded or something, not comprehending comments. But I sense a compliment, so thanks :)
@ash: It was intended to misguide. It's a style I want to get better at. Don't know what it's called but love to map ideas across domains. Thanks for the comments.
