ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh what a whirlwhind the last few days have been

matched with somebody on bumble who was really interesting to me! an alpine rock climber, snowboarder, but somebody who also stated they enjoyed exploring themselves and the world around them. and was attractive. we've gone out each of the last few nights, from a first date, to spending the night together, to having come out for some birthday festivities last night and meeting quite a few of my friends. just amazing conversation after conversation, so much laughing, awesome sex, this whole thing almost doesn't feel real. need to make sure i'm actually pacing things, both my feelings for her, and the amount and quality of time we're spending together...but i did jokingly say we should plan a weekend together out somewhere in the mountains, and that then turned into a "no let's do that" conversation.

i also won a ski pass at an outdoors film festival last night (which was my bday) and got the details for that february canmore trip. just a lot of exciting shit happening in and around my life right now and i need to be mindful that the level of high right now is temporary, and to enjoy it while it's here.

That's so great to hear!

Your concern about the pacing makes a lot of sense, but it does also seem like things are progressing very organically. Sometimes when it's on, it's ON. Really pleased for you, I hope things continue to be exciting and fulfilling!

This is awesome! I love reading this like this. It sounds like you’re not moving too fast if you’re both on the same page, right? Enjoy this time. The beginning is the best and a good beginning makes for a good foundation for what’s to come. Onward!

This is something I want to talk to her about later today - our pacing and being mindful of this being a healthy movement for both of us at the speed at which we're moving. I am feeling very open and emotionally available around this girl, and I think it will make for a great conversation and one that she will be more than happy to engage in.
