When the heart of this star-crossed voyager...
8 years ago
Since it won't fit in the title line the full quote is "When the heart of this star-crossed voyager beats in time with yours" which is from a very well known Elton John song.
I won't beat around the bush here. I'm not single anymore, and this time it feels a lot different. Different in a Very Good way.
mistdog and I are now comfortable enough to admit, atleast to the Furry public, that we are Dating. While its still early honestly I feel a lot closer to her then I have with anyone in a very very long time <3.
If you didn't catch my last Journal about relationship stuffs a few months ago: my last Ex dumped me Cold without any warning. She wasn't a Fur. We met on a Dating website. I could kinda tell that she was reserved about that... side of me a little bit or at the very least didn't understand the Dual life that most if not everyone in the Fandom lives. There were a number of other reasons I'm sure, most of which I will never know; but at this point I really don't care. I've been given a second chance to have someone to care for and who cares about me and I'm not going to take this for granted, and I don't have to explain to this person about the dual life I live :3.
I vowed that I wouldn't look at Dating sites. I wouldn't try to farm myself out as "Single and looking" to the Internet ever again; and I kept to that promise. But someone still found me regardless <3
We started out as friends. That is the honest truth here. She helped comfort me in a time I was sore and made me laugh again. And then it just sorta happened. That's it, honestly. We started out as friends, but as fate would have it we ended up hanging out, just the two of us, and slowly getting closer to each other. A few weeks ago at a Carnival neither of us wanted to go home, and that's when I just sorta... felt like there was something more there.
Those who know me know that I am absolutely horrible at reading people. I don't generally pick up on hints based on body language, tone or otherwise unless its blatantly obvious. For once I actually was right. <3
Since I know some of my followers on both here and Twitter are Single and frustrated on being in that state (Believe me I've been there, many many times) I'm not going to rub it in. I'm posting this one Journal, leaving something in my profile and probably going to make one series of Twitter posts about it. And that's it. I will keep any of the Mushy stuff to PMs. I might reference that we are doing something together or post some photos of a place we visited together but honestly I'd do that for my friends too.
One thing I will Emphasize here: My friends are still VERY important to me. Just because I'm in a Relationship again doesn't mean that I do not want to hang out with you anymore; it seems to be a common misconception and for some a Relationship DOES mean shutting off from friends. I won't allow that, my friends are very important to me so please, don't think otherwise. I'm still the same Yarrick and if we are Friends I'm still more then happy to spend a night getting you out of the house and hanging out somewhere.
I still want to Hang out with my Friends, I want to spend time with my GF, and I also want to spend time with both my friends AND my GF together. Because she is still my best friend, and I want all of my friends to be able to co exist and do stuff together.
