Second Chances..... can they be worth it ?

Oh boy..... did I overthink that situation with the man that said there was a distance issue ?  
Possibly.... because in actuality he started contacting me again.... I was happy to hear from him... that crazy dating site hooked us up again... so he said probably telling us something...yes, what we already know.... that we have true chemistry, and he said meant to be and very rare...so he asked me for another chance, to be together.  

I can honestly say that I was very happy about this.  I didn't  feel in my heart that it was over.  I had really liked him...and felt let down and so disappointed.   He said we will work out the distance thing.  And he actually loves animals.  I told him I am willing to make an effort to go his way to meet as well.  It is an hour and 15 min drive between us.  I guess he had went on a couple of dates and he realized he really likes me Alot.... he kept saying that and told me he was sorry.  

Of course I still have the man up north issue, which I don't know will ever change.... so part of my heart is there.  Then there is that beautiful Italian...we seem more like friends than anything.... can't fall in love with him.... I want to be in love again.  I want to feel happy with a man the way I did this weekend.  I want to be hugged, and kissed, we all do, don't we??? 

I am going to try to not have any expectations.  I want to believe this can work.  I want the right guy to share life experiences with.  I need to have a serious talk with myself.  Stop settling for less than I deserve!     my friend Char said to follow my heart.... can I move on from the 17 year whatever it is I have with the up north guy?  Can I let the Italian go.... can I be happy with this one man?  I want to believe the answer is Yes.... time will tell.  We are making plans for the near future.  He's told his family about me, even called his mom while he was here this morning...so that is a sign...  I kind of feel like I am in some kind of dream and I'm going to wake up and everything will change.  I pray not.  I do believe this man, I will call him my Frenchman.... was put in my life because I asked for him... God knew my heart and brought me a good man to share life with.  I'm done with overthinking... I am ready and willing to get onto a new chapter in life.... I pray that you are doing the same....
