that could have been scary
since my last blog, i was recently greeted by a new guy...and he really seems like a nice guy...at least he did until i found out he was separated (not divorced, but he doesn't consider himself married...right...) and has 3 kids. so...already...not good vibes. he kept begging and begging for me to meet him over in Granite City. I kept telling him and telling him NO, for crying out loud. it's pathetic the way he kept begging. and damned annoying.
so i caved. i drove to granite city.
now before you get all uppity and start commenting away about, "Marla, you're so dumb! How could you even consider going to some random guy's house alone? What the hell's wrong with you?"
I did that to myself. All the way over to his neighborhood.
However, once i got to his neighborhood, i noticed that only one street lamp was really working, and the place where i suppose his house was didn't have any lights on...and they neighbors were all being creepy and hanging outside their dark house and kinda...lurking around.
So i left. I was damn sure i wasn't going to go knocking on doors in a dark neighborhood hoping i picked the right one. Hell freakin' no!
then the guy calls me as i'm halfway back to Carol's and starts begging me to come back...that his front porch light must have just burned out...on and on and on. I flat out said NO and told him all the bad vibes i had about the whole situation. then he yelled, "FINE!" and hung up. Well, whatever.
i'm proud of myself. i know i probably shouldn't even have gone in the first place, but the fact that i didn't stop and put myself in a potentially dangerous situation. i didn't give in to the fact that i miss being with someone and ignored the fact that this guy literally begged me to come over and meet him. years ago, i might have...just because a guy paid attention to me. well. that's over now.
i've also been talking with this genuinely sweet guy who lives near sparta...i met him through OKC, and consequently myspace, and we get along well...at least on-line. i don't know exactly where this one's going, but i'm not pinning any hopes on anything. not after the last bout of boys i've decided to grace with my presence.
wow...egotistical enough for you?
