I don't feel good enough for her

  • For once, I can't give advice. I got burnt badly by someone a year and four days ago and deliberately took a year out (coincidentally, this is also when I joined IIN as I suddenly had time on my hands and didn't want to use it thinking about what she'd done).

    But now the year is over, the old me that would have unhesitatingly asked someone out for a meal, or a drink, or a film, is finding himself a bit shy. I know I'm more than ready to start something new (I often go a full week without thinking of her even once) but I have this nagging self-doubt where I wonder why people would be interested in me, especially if they're pretty, or funny, or clever.

    Some of it may be fear of being stung again, but most of it is that I've become a "single" person and I've got out of the habit of being part of a relationship.

    I guess it'll just a bit of bravery on both our parts, because I'm not willing to spend the rest of my life without that wonderful moment when you're so crazy about someone that your stomach flips over every time you're near her. The temporary insanity of love is worth a few knock-backs.
