A guy I used to work with at Cinergy emailed this to me today. We hung out like maybe two times, AS FRIENDS ONLY. *shudder*
Hey Jill,
How is your new cable job going? Will you get free cable for your house now lol?
That
would be a nice perk. Our call volume has been HORRIBLE this week!
I've
been taking over 70 calls a day and coming home in a very bad mood.
Hopefully it will die off after Labor Day! I hope you are enjoing you
life
post-Cinergy lol.
Anyway, there is an ulterior motive to me sending this mail. I'm kinda
nervous so I may ramble a bit, but I promise there is a point! I can
tell
from our talk that you and I have pretty different ideas about sex,
relationships, commitment, etc. Now I have been kinda/sorta/not
officially
been seeing somebody for about a month now (Amber may have mentioned
her to
you, she's my reason I won't go out w/ Amber lol. I know I'm horribly
mean). Anyway, that, and the fact you were still a virgin and would
probably want your first time to be with somebody really special, is
the
ONLY reason I hadn't made a move on you yet. =) Jill, please don't be
offended by my saying this, but you are HOT. I mean really. I have a
couple people who would back me up if ya don't believe me. But anyway,
I
know how you feel about commitment and all, and since I was kinda
already
involved I just decided to respect that. (I know I may have seemed a
little
weird around you the last time we hung out, didn't want to give you the
wrong idea). But, my dear Jill, I have not been able to get you out of
my
head. I'm young, I'm not married, and you are sweet and beautiful. So
I
guess I wanted to propose-is there any way you would allow me to take
your
negative-one up to a zero, so to speak? (He had asked me how many people I'd been with and I said "negative one" as a joke) I will be fully honest, I am
not
ready to make a long term commitment to anyone yet (I did that for
about 2
years, and it really feels wasted-long story), so if you are not OK
with
that, I totally understand, no hard feelings. You are a special person
and
the last thing I want to do is hurt you with any one of my numerous
emotional hang ups. But we're friends, I find you very attractive, and
I
think I could help you feel really good if you'd let me (the advantage
to
experience, I DO think I know a thing or two lol). So think over and
at
least consider it? If you decide no, just take the offer as
flattery-it's
really meant that way =) If not I hope it is not so awkward we can
never
talk again =(. I know you think guys are jerks for not wanting
commitment-trust me, it really IS more complicated than that, and in
the
meantime-we're just human! Well if nothing else, drop me a line and
let me
know how your life has been going! My schedule should be getting less
busy
here pretty soon. Look forward to hearing from you!
Later sweetie!

Hmm. yeah. Gotta love those really really bad sexual propositions. I think I'm gonna hoark. On a much better note, I spent last night with Brad. I somehow found my way to his apt in Carmel from work (and it wasn't all that far either, yaay!) and we had a really nice time. We watched Office Space and then basically just fell asleep with him holding me. It was very pure and simple. Not "pure and simple", just pure. And simple. And nice. We woke up and watched some tv and I left around 1 today to go home. Then I got that freaky Stephen email. Omg I'm still weirded out by that.
I'm gonna go call Alex. That's right Alex, do you hear that? I'm calling you. I also want to take the time now to publicly thank you for the other night, you have no idea how much better I feel because I talked to you.
