Maturity is an odd thing. You react to things in ways that feel new. But it's the natural reaction. I just got the non-comitment e-mail from D., yet i'm not mad or put off by it. I mean, there's a part of me that is screaming and setting off alarms and such, but it's such a small par in comparison to the part of me that is calm, cool and collected. The only reaction that is sorta familiar is the low self esteem "get ready to be single" alarm. Even that is more muted that it usually is in previous itterations of this scenario. I'm actually kinda glad to step things down a bit. Ain't that a kick in the head?
