The harshest thing to realise is that one's not ready and that one's catching that way late.

It started yesterday, with yet an emotional crisis, and I'm realising that regardless of if that possibility was a spark for something fantastic or really "just a tango crush", I'm not ready for someone new... except for friendship.

I really need to remind myself to take an extra good look at myself next time I have a crush. That, or take the kind of shit that follows when I realise a few weeks later that I'm not really ready.

Gah!

UPDATE: I just had a talk with this person I had that short crush on, basically going for LJBF. She took it well, in a very balanced way. That's something I really appreciate.
