"I looked directly at the trap, Ray!"
Hello friends. I hope everyone is well. Things have been ok on this side. I landed the lead in a 16mm film recently. I play a guy who killed his psychiatrist who now lives in my house (as a ghost). I know, I know not, quite Oscar caliber stuff but it is my first 16mm film and I am stoked. I even get wardrobe! Finally!
Don't you hate it when a seemingly perfect situation falls in your lap but you can't do shit about it. There is this girl (surprise, surprise!) in my acting class who I have a scene with tomorrow (Leaving Las Vegas). Since she missed the last class she wasn't able to get the script so I offered to meet her somewhere to give it to her. Now, I always thought that she was pretty and a sweet girl but we never really talked much in class. I was just planning on meeting up , handing her the script and that would be that. We ended up talking at this coffee shop for like 3 hours. It was the kind of situation where there was an instant connection. She got my somewhat twisted sense of humor and we had a great time, not to mention she possess the three things I look for in a woman: sense of humor, intelligence and a good heart. Seems like a perfect situation, right? Well, since I can never be involved in a situation that isn't rife with problems, let me explain. First she is only 20 years old. now mind you she is pretty mature for twenty and I am only 27 but it still might be an issue. B, she is in my acting class. This might present a whole new set of problems. And D, she has a boyfriend. I know , I know, that should be enough for me to back off but they have only been going out for a month and a half, she doesn't seem too excited about this guy, he majorly fucked up Valentines day ( he didn't even call her) and the guy seems like a total introvert. Now, this was the first time in a while that I have been able to talk to a girl for an extended period of time and be myself. I wasn't trying to be the smoothest cat in the room or trying to come up with interesting things to say. I was totally at ease and I really liked spending time with her. Not once did the idea cross my mind to make a move on her. The problem lies in where I should take it from here. Should I lie back and just accept the fact that we might be nothing more than friends or should I take a more active role. I don't want to be a dick and break a couple up but at the same time I haven't met a woman like this in a LONG time.
Ladies, your advice would be GREATLY appreciated.
