Set Backs

I met someone great recently and we talked about so much, we seemed to have a liking to each other, but something with both of us didn't seem to click. The conversation was wonderful, and we both learned a lot from the other on how they handle problems, and I now have some new ammo for my fight with depression, I hope that I gave them some too.

Alas, it did not work.

I was really hoping that I was going to start having a closer relationship with someone and be able to help them in some was, but I was not going to happen. Their "monsters that they are fighting" are very hard for them, and secretly I know that now is not at good time for me to start a relationship that intense because I still have the "monsters" of my own.

I am glad that we are going to be friends, that is greater than a relationship, because there are no pretenses. I learned from my mistakes of being "too intense" which is a plus too. But I am very happy that I have a new friend that knows more about computers than I do in my last year in avionics.

The setback was I was looking for a relationship, that we both did not need, but got a friend. I didn't get exactly what I was looking for, but got a wonderful beautiful gift in return.

We will always have setbacks in life, even with the intentions. Don't stop trying, because you will get there!
