Labret and I have been seeing each other for about 3 months now. As mentioned earlier, she already had the feeling that she didn't want to be involved with anyone else. I clarified it with her, she said it in no way was meant to make me feel obligated to do the same. As a result, I didn't express to her that I didn't want to be involved with anyone else. But at the same time, I assured her that I was not seeing anyone else (after CG and I broke up), and had no plans to do so.

Recently I've had the feeling that something was wrong. I was getting insecure, kinda clingy and needy. I felt it, but Labret didn't notice it. After sitting with it and searching my feelings, I came to the conclusion that I needed more of a commitment than I was currently involved in. After thinking about it even further, the thought of not being involved with anyone other than Labret makes me feel happy. It makes me feel free. So this is what I've decided I need.

I called Labret and told her that I'm ready. I'm ready for something deeper. I'm ready to provide more emotional support. I'm ready to start thinking about plans beyond just this week. I'm here, and I'm ready.

She's feeling hormonal at the moment and it's making her feel indifferent about everything. She didn't want to reply right now because all of her thoughts are filtered through her hormones, and she didn't want to say anything she didn't mean, although she did say that she felt this was what was happening naturally anyways. So I said, "Ok, well, I'm putting myself out there. This is how I feel and this is what I want."

Thinking of something one of my friends posted on facebook: "Act out of bravery and courage, not out of fear and insecurity." Courage to speak my mind and feelings. Bravery to let her know what I need and want.
