Pete's understanding of Peter

ME: pete told me something about you last night that made me cry.
[10:34] Peter: oh?
[10:35] ME: i told him you were reacting the exact opposite of what I expected you to, i thought you'd be more jealous and prevent him from making his move and trying to steal me away...but you're supportive and encouraging...
[10:35] ME: that has got me feeling confused and a bit sad even
[10:35] ME: and that's why it's so hard for me
[10:36] ME: he said that my feelings of how I could never be 'the bad guy' and just end things with you have been expressed, that you understand it will have to be YOU that ends everything with me when the time comes, because I'm too weak and I can't do it...and what he said was, you understand that this relationship with him MIGHT be the reason to do that.
[10:36] ME: ...he said that you probably see that
[10:37] ME: and i cried
[10:37] Peter: *nods* i do see that, sure. but as I've also consistently said to you for years, it would only mean that a part of our relationship would come to a close, but not overall end
[10:38] ME: yes. i don't want it all to end, ever.
[10:39] Peter: it wont
[10:39] ME: ok
[10:39] Peter: our friendship, our relationship, the closeness never has to end
[10:39] ME: good
[10:40] ME: pete says:
[10:40] Peter: the physical part, well that may have been inevitable since the beginning that we dont really talk about. but in all honesty, for either of us to willingly end it would have to be a damn good reason.
[10:40] ME: PETE: I am going to hug that man when I meet him and thank him for bringing you to me.
[10:40] Peter: we are evaluating if pete and your relationship with him is a damn good reason
[10:40] Peter: so there's no pressure here
[10:41] ME: ok
[10:42] ME: ME, to PETE: you both are in agreement about this
[10:41] ME: and that makes me very happy
[10:42] PETE: Sounds like we are all in agreement.
[10:42] PETE: I am glad that this puts you more at ease.
[10:42] ME to PETE: yes it does.
[10:42] ME to Peter: ........and it does.
[10:54] Peter: i'm not sure i want him to hug me. you know i dont get into that sort of thing (smiley face with sunglasses on)
[10:54] ME: so you are both echoing each other. I asked him if you had somehow arranged this whole thing for him to meet me at camp or what...
[10:54] ME: or if you're both conspiring together without me knowing it
[10:54] Peter: one word girl: serendipity

I really don't know how the hell I got so lucky to have both of these men in my life. But, I am. Thank you God for giving me both Pete and Peter. I am truly blessed.
