Rich Loves Me..Now What?

Well, not really thrilled as to how finals went..failed two classes, so Dad's gonna have a fit when he finds out...but, I had a very nice weekend...spent a lot of this past week with Rich, which was real nice...we met w/another couple on Friday. It was a lot of fun; we have a lot of stuff in common, besides the fact that we're swingers...yes, I am now a swinger...it's interesting.

But, I'm also confused...Rich said he's in love with me, and I'm not sure how to react to it...I'm shellshocked, to be totally honest...I mean, why would anyone *want* to be in love with me? I just never had that happen to me. Besides which, only 2 more weeks until my birthday, though I probably won't see Rich for about 3. :( Not fair. Ah well. That's life, I guess...But, I'm confused. He wants us to eventually move in together, and I wouldn't be comfortable with that unless we're married...I just wish he could understand things from my POV. I mean, if I did end up moving in with him, I'd basically be cutting off all contact with my family, since I already know from other experiences in the family that they would, since they wouldn't approve of what I'd be doing...and, the thing is, I'm not ready to do that...I mean, for all my grumbling, I love my daddy so much. But, if I was forced to chose between my father and Rich, if push came to shove, though it would hurt like hell, I'd chose Rich over my father.
