I need to apologize a little for the previous entry. I was simply processing information from folks after I tried to figure out what went wrong and why it seemed like Michiru was quite distant all of a sudden. I was going to post that things had been fixed, which they were...but then they went a screwy direction in less than 24 hours. Now I'm all sorts of confuzzled.
Generally, the way things have with the previous three relationships, we had space, but we also talked at all the opportune moments to talk, such as meal times, or what have you.
clodian, Gimp, or Fritz could tell you how everything just kind of came together and we enjoyed the company of one another in the beginning. This friendship that's supposed to be determining whether or not we wish to date is turning into something completely different, and I can't make heads or tails. For starters, I had a feeling something was changing with Michiru after we gave our friendship the purpose we did. I couldn't quite place it, but something was changing and I could feel it. Then I screwed things up to high heaven as mentioned previously, and now we have the second error on my part as of Monday.
In an attempt to reach out to Michiru, when I left the coffee shop we were at so I could get to my shift, I learned that I didn't have a shift because enough extras came in, and that the meal wasn't so hot (it was all breakfast stuff). So, I'm now thinking and I get an idea: let's find a place to grab a quick bite, either Taco Bell or Subway or something like that, and then watch a movie I think she might be interested in because of the pre-1700 time period, The Three Musketeers. I also consider that she may have stuff, so it might have to be one or the other, and therefore I text her, "...would you like to do dinner and/or a movie tonight...?" She texts back that she thinks she'll pass. I'm fine with that. However, this is where I goofed. I didn't realize that the movie night advertised in the dorms was for the guys only - I thought it was out in all of them, and it just happened to be a favorite of both of ours, The Dark Knight. I text to ask if she was going to see it that night. No response. I wait a while, and then I notice as I walk by her dorm she's with a bunch of other women. Good for her I smiled to myself and kept walking to the other dorm for guys. I begin to realize the error of what I wrote, but noticed there was a good two hours to see if I was right or wrong, and then it hit me that I may have sounded like I was pushing for a movie. Far be it from me to try to deliberately push if I can help it, but I've made that error before, and so I sent a text saying, "(I only ask as I'm going to be watching the movie myself)". No response.
Since then, it has just felt really off and really weird. Work was different, and so have been my attempts at meal times to subsequently try to give her space per the advice of "Hol", a guy in our group. He said that things were okay because we had defined the relationship, the main key now was to giver Michiru her space.
Can you see why the Delirious? song applies now?
