waiting...
I stand in his strong arms every week,
as we practice the waltz for my friend's debut.
he's a good dancer when he knows what he is doing.
He has a distinguishable scent,
not a strong one or a bad one,
but it clings to me by the time we're through.
during our "pause" I can feel his heart racing,
as I lean against his chest.
whenever I look up at him,
he looks back and smiles.
when I look across at him,
he looks so concentrated that I laugh,
then he looks up at me and starts to grin.
He makes me fall harder and harder for him every day.
Ten weeks. after that, I don't know where he and I will stand.
In seven weeks, he will know what I feel for him.
the thought is frightening, but the best things in life are the things that scare you.
I don't even know if I can wait all that time. I want him to know, but I don't want to make things awkward for him when we dance for the debut.
I'm just afraid that when I tell him,
it will be too late.

I'm just bouncing around blogs to deal with insomnia and I came across yours.
Don't take this wrong, but you may need help. I can understand having strong feelings for another person that you aren't in a position to act on, but what you're describing is a bit... fixated.
In any event, good luck.
Fixated. Not insane, fixated. I've had that problem before too, but you're actually planning for an event, and if that event doesn't live up to your expectations, it's going to be rough.
This guy starting the conversation with "my girlfriend...," or better "my wife" may cause you some... consternation.
