I was doing fine with all this until He came along. He is my new neighbor and He went home this past weekend so we still haven't gotten to know each other so very well as I know all my other neighbors. And this has caused a problem. This has cause me to start making things up (again). I always do. I see a boy, he sparks my interest, I know him a little (or even not at all), and my imagination makes up the rest. I always make them perfect and every situation is perfect and we get to know each other and we end up falling in love and it's...well...perfect. But then I actually start to get to know them and first it's awkward because I've imagine so many intimate encounters that I think we're already incredibly close when we're not. And then I get to actually know him and he isn't nearly as perfect as I pretended and I realize I don't actually like him, I like what I pretended was him and he hurts me without even realizing what he's done.
In this case, with Neighbor, it's the first one (so far). In my head we've already gone through the awkward bathroom run-ins and late night hall chats and eating dinner together and going for late night walks and falling asleep together and him consoling me while I'm home sick. But none of that has happened. I know very little about him, but it feels like I know more (facebook stalking helps...or rather doesn't help...). So when I talk to him I think I'm talking to an old friend and I act that way, but in reality I know pretty much nothing and he just thinks I'm a lunatic. But I can't just turn off my imagination, I'm stuck with it and my lunacy. help me?
