Happily ever after?

It's funny how a majority of women allow themselves to get attached to men who clearly do not want the same thing as they do. They hold on to this illusion that one day maybe he will come around and they can live happily ever after. Sure in some cases that may have worked, but 9 times out of 10 it doesn't. I used to think I wasn't one of those women, that I was smart enough to walk away before I was in too deep, and for a while I was able to do that. Now I've met my match, someone who I get along with effortlessly. Someone who I tried to walk away from but he wouldn't let me. Someone who led me to think that there was hope for us. Someone who is exactly 7 years older than me. He's already settling into his career while I still can't even figure out what to wear in the morning. We are both at different points in out lives and for whatever reason, we work as whatever it is we are at the moment. But I can't do it anymore. I'm falling for him. I'm seriously considering walking away for good this time. Just typing this out and me rereading it puts my stomach in knots. I'm just going to leave it at that.
