Guys and stuff

Dec 15, 2008 00:08

Haven't written here in a while. I can't blame work or school really, because I'm not actually that busy.

One phone call and one MSN conversation with two of my friends reminded me just how much attempting this whole dating and relationship can suck. I got off work and my friend who lives up north texts me saying that she needs to vent about something. I call her and find my, usually bubbly and confident, friend upset and dejected because of a guy. She's not the type to go heartbroken because of one guy, usually she's very free and open whenever she meets someone new. But she has met one too many jerks lately and needed to vent about the latest incident in which she basically got dumped over a text message.

Got home and spoke briefly to a friend who was online on MSN. His boyfriend had visited on Friday with clear doubts about their relationship. My friend really didn't want it to end but he expected that it would. His expectation was right. It's weird really, just a month ago the two of them travelled to New York together. It sucks that it ended like this because my friend was really, really happy when they were together and I suspect that he might take this kind of hard.

A few months ago I dated a guy who I didn't think I had any feelings for other than lust. Just when he did something that made me think "Hm, perhaps I do feel something", things went south the way it always does when it comes to me and guys.

About two weeks ago I met this guy at work. He's kind of absent minded and I think he hasn't been working that long. Those two things combined result in him making strange, but harmless work related mistakes that amuse me. We bonded over having the same kind of cell phone and have dorky conversations about how good the Samsung E330 model is. My cell phone is on its last life but I ordered a new battery instead of replacing it. Whenever there's a spare moment, he turns to me either to ask something or just have a chat. He's cute. I don't think he'd be too horrified if I asked for his number.

Maybe I'm feeling pessimistic after what happened to my two friends or maybe I'm just pessimistic because my awful history with guys. But for now, I'm not going to take any steps. I'm not in a hurry. I don't want to ruin the fun and amusement that comes with this guy. Most of all, I don't things to repeat and another guy to add to the "awful history" bunch.

love, guys
