This weekend.
I went out to dinner with a new guy on Saturday. It was pretty nice. Based on a previous conversation, I know that he thinks "hitting it off" and being mutually attracted to one another are synonymous terms... so if that's really what he thinks I am thinking he will probably call after the "3 day rule" has taken effect. We definitely seemed to hit it off, and I would see him again. He was fun to hang out with.
I however, don't think I can continue to use my personal method of knowing whether I'm attracted to someone or not... that whole feeling nervous thing doesn't seem to apply anymore. Used to be, I knew for sure I was attracted to someone if they made me nervous. I think I outgrew that. Or it just doesn't apply every time. And the eating in front of strangers thing doesn't really make me nervous anymore either. I used to have a weird thing about that too.
Maybe it's just my current state of mind, being glad to just be "dating" for once, instead of worrying about whether or not the next relationship is starting up.
I spoke to a someone else on the phone tonight, but that wasn't so great... no common ground whatsoever.
There is a fly buzzing around in here... I wish the spider crawling around would hurry up and eat it. All these uninvited guests... they should start paying rent!
After our soccer game, Nancy and I met up w/ Carlos to go to the Pumpkin Festival in Half Moon Bay. I've never been there before, it's a really nice drive. Except that it took us an hour to get down the mountainside b/c of traffic, but on any other day I'm sure it wouldn't be so bad. Pumpkin ice cream was good. Turkey sandwiches they had... not so hot. I had fun, but after awhile I had to quit walking next to Carlos because I kept having to stop myself from trying to hold hands with him, LoL. It's weird walking next to a non-date, non-boyfriend guy. I was so used to always holding onto Ricky that I kept wanting to naturally put my arm in Carlos's. Didn't want to make him look taken though since he's searching for his future wife.
He met me at the clinic on Saturday for lunch. I refer to him as my "EMT/Firefighter friend" since alot of girls automatically thing "ooh, man in uniform!" When he showed up they thought he was a date Someone said we should make a pact, like in My Best Friends Wedding, so that if we're 30 and unmarried, we just go ahead and marry each other, LoL. Hell, he's already supposed to be my 'safety date' for Carrie's wedding. I don't think I'm down to have a 'safety husband.'
