Almost

Him: we fit almost perfectly

me: it's that "almost"

Him: well...at least on my end it's an almost that I have to remind myself of or else it'd slip by the wayside


The almost is our belief systems. He's staunchly Christian. I'm...whatever I am. Spiritual. How we view the Creator and Universe is vastly different.

I'm not pushy with my beliefs. He's not either. We can discuss religion, and have done so, without it turning into an argument.

It's why the "almost" has to be in both our minds. It's the only obstacle between us. And his own stubbornness.

Also our agreement to just be friends.

Oh dear, what have I gotten myself into?
