He likes me not...
HE LIKES ME?!
Emails between me and Alaska seemed to have faded to non-existent. In October, we sent a dozen short messages back and forth. I (tried my damndest) to be casual and not make a big deal out of it (but, lets face it, inside I was screaming with excitement and the thought of "what could be" permeated my veins, I digress).
As spontaneous as the emails were when he first contacted me, POOF, he stopped responding.
I suppose this is to be expected when:
I didn't lose sleep over it (which surprised me as much as I'm sure it surprises you). I moved on with my life...que serra serra.
And, just like before, POOF...My inbox alerts me to an email from him this past Saturday. Apologizing for not checking his email often. Saying he knows it's been a while since we've seen each other, and would love for me to send him some pictures...because, as long as it's been, he wants to see me again.
I am extremely cautious this minuscule internet-driven romance will go anywhere...I refuse to invest TOO much...but, damn. I like him. I like the small amount I know about him. I like that, even though some responses have taken a little long, he has kept responding. I like remembering back to that night...his eyes, lips, touch, and smell.
I like him.

Obviously, yes, being a little cautious is always good. But more importantly, I think that being excited is a sign that not only do you still believe in love (despite the fact that it is so much easier not to), but that you also believe that you are deserving of it. And you don't ever want to lose that.
