Hello all. Despite only having a few (and I mean a few, no offense) words of encouragement on this forum, I have recently spoke to my friends about it (because I have a feeling that speaking to my close friends would help me just a bit more) and they told me to do just this: continue to pursue, but be patient and do not push it because what I'm doing now is just fine. Turns out they were right! A day after they told me this, Anthony and I hung out that very next day, and before the day was over, he actually told me that he was starting to fall in love with me. His feelings actually gotten more stronger than it was before. Even though the feelings are still not 100% mutual (more like 85% in my opinion), it's still a great sign. He believes the reason is because we hung out a lot more and talked a lot more than him and Amber usually do since she's in school a lot and never has the time to hang (whereas I do have time most of the time). Even though there is a wall between me and him, the wall is actually breaking little by little. We are still not a couple just yet, but you could say it's closer than what it was the last time I posted something here. Please continue to pray for us (that is if you choose to despite the harsh words I've been getting here lately, but not from all of you...) and thanks.
