I just ate lunch with Yeager and Matt, totally unplanned. I just happend to walk in the caf. and Yeager was there and said I should eat with them, which was awesome because I haven't gotten to talk to Yeager in awhile. We got to catch up on a few things, school, home life, etc. I was hoping the whole boy topic wouldn't come up, but it did.
Yeager asked me who my Valentine was, and I just looked at him and said nothing, and he was like, "what you don't have one?" And I shook my head no. Then he said, "you don't even have a boy you're interested in?" And I said no. I then laughed and replied with the it's been 5 months statement. The boys laughed. Yeager then said I deserve someone great. I almost responded with the I'm not really looking reply, but didn't really feel like it (my pasta fagolioli was really good so talking was minimum.) Yeager said that sucked I didn't have a Valentine, to which my glass half full response was, "Not really, I'll save a lot of money."
But then it got me thinking that I'm really NOT interested in anyone right now. I mean yeah I meet boys all the time, and yes a lot of them are cute but none are really date worthy. Here's my recent approach to guys lately, that I just explained to Adam (RA Adam, not the ex) the other night.
When I meet a boy that is cute, and single, he goes into the "maybe" pool. In order to get out of the "maybe" pool boys need to either make some type of attempt or show that they like me. They then get put into the "potential" pool which means that under the right circumstances yeah, I might date them. If you perform well there, you're upped to the "yes" pool which means yes, I would date that person. If you screw up in the "maybe" pool, by doing the usual things I don't like such as lieing or being rude, or showing no interest, you get put in the "no" pool. It's hard to get out of the "no" pool, but slightly possible. It would require many apoligies and a lot of ass kissing pretty much.
All the boys I know right now are maybes, and very stagnant maybes. I wouldn't even say I have anyone in the potential pool. Most of the maybe's are my really close/good guy friends, who will probably be stagnant maybe's for the rest of my life, just because I don't think of them as more than friends and vice versa, or I'm too scared to try to start something.
Along with the pool I also have my list of things that I look for, which can be extensive at times.
I honestly don't have time for boys either. I'm trying to get into grad school (dropped off the application YESTERDAY!) and trying to get an internship (in pittsburgh) so they aren't really on my list of things to do.
I know a lot of people are going to say that I analyze things too much, and that there's no need to put a system to everything.... but oh well!!!
