Possibilities...

Well, THE BOYFRIEND and I are making headway into the relationship.  Making it stronger and realizing that this relationship, for the both of us, probably couldn't be any better with anyone else.  For example, due to my lack of employment I might have to move back to Clearwater.  Don't know when, but it's a possibility if I don't find anything soon or win my unemployment claim appeal.  However, I've already applied to the local comm college up here AND I am planning to attend coming this fall semester.  That's a good 3-ish months where I'm gonna be without money (again, if I don't get any $ coming in).  So, I asked him,

"How would you feel if I moved down to Clearwater for a few months, then came back for school in August?"
"..."
"I mean, I could come back once, maybe twice a month."
"I'm thinking.  ...  I think I could do that.  I've had longer dry spells than that, gone longer without having someone to hangout with who wasn't a drinking buddy or whatever.  I mean, it would possibly go against my rule concerning long distance relationships, but I also had a rule against boning a co-worker.  And that seems to be going very well."

So, if I have to go back home to my parents, I only want it to be for a summer, due to school and THE BOYFRIEND.  I would have to find a pt job down there so that I can save $.  But I think that would be the last resort kinda thing.  Plus, I would have to find a new place to live up here when August comes around.

Oh, he mentioned the roommate thing again.  You know, that one of his roommates is moving out and I can possibly move into the house with him.  So, I'm thinking that he is getting serious-er about the whole thing.  Me, us, our relationship.  BUT how serious?  Not enough to actually move in together in our own place, not just yet.  Don't think I'm ready for THAT yet either.  But, really, how do you know if you are ready?  Guess if the sitch occurs, I'll know then.  Maybe I should suggest moving in together when I start school up again.  Maybe when we hit a year.  That sounds like the best time.
