Maybe Han is taking eating lessons from Chewie?

Brain: Now, Pinky, if by any chance you are captured during this mission, remember you are Gunther Heindriksen from Appenzell. You moved to Grindelwald to drive the cog train to Murren. Can you repeat that? Pinky: Mmmm, no, Brain, don't think I can.

What if I do and then twenty years down the road my own teenage daughter finds this journal.
Heee, maybe she has a little bit of Force too...

The grocery bill may be a factor in deciding our future.
Can I afford to feed him full time?

This could be a problem.
Oddly enough, I'd be thinking the same thing.
Loved the last two updates. I really enjoy seeing how their relationship is progressing.

It's said that sex is no foundation for a relationship, but it's a start. You can always take some more time to grab a man's head/heart, after you got him by hte ***s, so to speak.
And you yould try to make him contribute to the food, Ynna. Or just eat like a horse when at his place, maybe he'll get the message.

Jade_Pilot I think Ynna may be serious!
Kevin_Solo No woman ever wants to be confronted by the ghost of the woman who "got there" before her!
dm1 Han is a bit skittish.
Jade_eyes I'm still Nana Vader! Come August, it will be official!
PonyTricks I don't figure Han for a picky or fussy eater, and I imagine quantity would be welcomed!
Golden_Jedi Or just rotten luck!
Blue_Milkshake She is, after all, an artist. And not QUITE galactically famous just yet!
Alexis_Wingstar The cold reality of actually BEING with someone.
alhana_antilles And it takes a giant leap forward today. Or a baby step, depending on how you look at it!
MsLanna It's not a bad place to start, that's true!
Entry #41
Han gave me a gift today. Okay, I didn’t think of it as a gift, but after he presented it to me, grinning like an idiot the whole time, he looked at me expectantly. Obviously waiting for me to faint with gratitude or something.
Oh gods, I sound like such a…
Never mind, I know what I sound like. It’s just that, well, we’ve been seeing each other exclusively for two months now and I don’t feel like he’s any closer to trusting me than he was the day I met him.
That’s not really fair, I know. But knowing something and accepting it are two very different things. He’s been hurt and I have to be patient. Much more patient than I am right now. I know this, but it hurts.
Looking back on it, I suppose it really was a gift, at least in Han’s eyes.
“Why don’t you leave some of your stuff in a drawer here at my place?” he offered and then gave me the “eyes.” The “eyes” are what a male gives a female when he’s made some grand concession that severely inconveniences him (at least in his own point of view).
A simple thank you isn’t usually enough.
A woman has to pretty much melt with gratitude, making herself into a big gooey puddle that pools around his boots and say “You’re the most incredible male in the galaxy.”
Okay, so I’m cranky. I never said I was perfect.
I did say thank you. A lot. Well, at least four times. But I don’t think I convinced him.
I got a drawer and what I really want…
Well, what I really want is him.
All of him. Every single bit of him, the good, the bad, the sloppy, the ugly, the part of him that scratches his butt when he wakes up and he stumbles toward the caf maker. I want his morning breath and the way he throws his dirty laundry on the floor. I want the way his hair stands on end, and the little tic he gets when he’s trying so hard not to yell at the smashball game because he’s still trying to put on his “good” manners.
I hate myself.
I’m really being terrible.
I should be grateful that he’s let me into his life this much, and so fast. It hasn’t been long at all. Not really.
I just wish I knew how he really felt about me.
Anyway, time to end this self-pitying entry. I’ve added a new encryption code just in case Han gets nosy. And now I’m going to go to bed and get some sleep. First, I’m going to put this journal in my drawer.
It’s my drawer. And it’s in his place.
That’s progress, I guess. So I’ll shut up and be grateful. Because I am, grateful I mean. He’s tender and considerate, he’s funny and thoughtful. And he’s giving himself some space to love me.
Gods, I really am being a whiny brat about this.
Maybe I’ll wake him up and be grateful again.

Awwwwwwwwwwww... You'll need all the patience you can get, Ynna, but you'll find out he's worth it!

A nice update! I understand where she's coming from here:
Never mind, I know what I sound like. It’s just that, well, we’ve been seeing each other exclusively for two months now and I don’t feel like he’s any closer to trusting me than he was the day I met him.
That’s not really fair, I know. But knowing something and accepting it are two very different things. He’s been hurt and I have to be patient. Much more patient than I am right now. I know this, but it hurts.
It's not easy to get over someone like Leia! I laughted and smiled at this:
“Why don’t you leave some of your stuff in a drawer here at my place?” he offered and then gave me the “eyes.” The “eyes” are what a male gives a female when he’s made some grand concession that severely inconveniences him (at least in his own point of view).
A simple thank you isn’t usually enough.

Okay, so I’m cranky. I never said I was perfect.
I did say thank you. A lot. Well, at least four times. But I don’t think I convinced him.
I got a drawer and what I really want…
Well, what I really want is him.
Give him time. As for this bit:
All of him. Every single bit of him, the good, the bad, the sloppy, the ugly, the part of him that scratches his butt when he wakes up and he stumbles toward the caf maker. I want his morning breath and the way he throws his dirty laundry on the floor. I want the way his hair stands on end, and the little tic he gets when he’s trying so hard not to yell at the smashball game because he’s still trying to put on his “good” manners.
You've really got it bad, girl! At least she admits to self-pity:
I hate myself.
I’m really being terrible.
I should be grateful that he’s let me into his life this much, and so fast. It hasn’t been long at all. Not really.
I just wish I knew how he really felt about me.
Anyway, time to end this self-pitying entry.
At least there's some progress here:
He’s tender and considerate, he’s funny and thoughtful. And he’s giving himself some space to love me.
Gods, I really am being a whiny brat about this.
Maybe I’ll wake him up and be grateful again.
A girl has to do what a girl has to do – but that doesn’t mean she can’t enjoy it.
As I said before, give him time.

That was a big step for Han. He's taking baby-steps back toward love and trust. He'll get there....

My favorite line, along with the gooey puddle around his boots bit!
That was a present, she got her own drawer in his space! Han is taking some steps forward, he'll get there!

Wow, only two months and she's got her own drawer in his place. With the way Han's heart was crushed, ground and tossed away like yesterday's trash, that's really a big step for him, and two months isn't that long a time. At least she acknowledges that she's being impatient.
Great update.

That’s not really fair, I know. But [i]knowing something and accepting it are two very different things. [/i]
Ynna.
Ooooh, don't you love it, when they get all generous.
I am sure the sacrifice will kill Han. Not.
And you go, Ynna. i still have no drawer at my bf's and we're together for five years now. You're making great progress!
A woman has to pretty much melt with gratitude, making herself into a big gooey puddle that pools around his boots and say “You’re the most incredible male in the galaxy.”
But if it's worth it, what is a little melting?
Maybe I’ll wake him up and be grateful again.

A space of her very own at his place? I'd call that progress.
I really feel for Ynna. It's so hard to be in a relationship that's progressing at two different speeds for the hearts involved. Maybe the Patience Fairy will come by and leave her a gifty under her pillow.
