Page 7 of It’s Me They Follow

My Geeeeeeeeeee!

What a bullet you dodged with youknowwho!

You finally came around to the truth: youknowwho = youknowwhat.

But are you sure you can stay away?

Any and all of those conversations would nail the coffin shut, and you did well to leave him once more, even if only for twenty-one days.

Meanwhile, ME = fantasy. Sounds like more make pretend if you ask me.

Handsome ME might be a monk in training, but he also seems immature. I think he may be hiding his true nature underneath rules and piety. I’m not sure how long you can keep the illusion alive that he is more authentic and gifted and worth giving yourself to than he actually may be.

But the specific details of the journey can drive your creativity and maybe give you something to write about. Plus, remember, the bookshop is here. Don’t let him sidetrack you into helping to mend his broken soul while you put your dream on the back burner—again.

As always, whether it’s with youknowwho or ME, it can be fun to stay in the fantasy and take the ride.

Enjoy this tantalizing part of wanting to touch but not being allowed to.

That longing is precious. Particularly when you lie together and look deeply into each other’s eyes. Très, très romantique!!!

But take it for what it is for now. Do not trick yourself and decide you are suddenly in love with him. Let him fill the romantic space without allowing him to take up all of your spaces. By going too far in this, you don’t want to cut off those who are still meant to come to you.

Make room to let them find you. Will keep you updated.

Your Sister Friend,
