I told myself I would put write an update on what has been happening with me and the boyfriend since the incident where I had a conniption when he inadvertently made me feel bad for not having sex with him. It was actually really easy to talk to him about it. Mostly because he brought it up. When I went to my car that afternoon, I realized I had left my cell phone in there. There were like 10 texts from him over the course of the day asking if I was alright and if I was mad at him and that we should talk. I sent him back a text saying the phone had been in the car and I hadn’t been ignoring him but yes we need to talk.
I’m still wondering how he knew that I was upset. I mean I had posted something rather cryptic on twitter but he has no twitter and mine it locked. I post nothing on face book because we have mutual friends and my family and his family there and that would have caused so much unneeded drama. He doesn’t know my Livejournal name or at least that’s what he says. I’m inclined to believe him because he hates Livejournal and it is a little hard to navigate and find people. At least that’s my experience. I would say maybe we’re just that connected he knew but that sounds rather pre-teen romance to think about it that way. Maybe he picked up some vibes, I don’t know.
Anyway, we went out that night to this diner and we sat down and talked. I told him how I felt. I told him I didn’t feel I was ready and it wasn’t him. I really wanted him to know that I just have issues with trusting people and that’s a level I’ve never trusted someone before. He said he understood and he actually has been very good since then. So, it didn’t get to a point where I had to dump him. :)
This was the first year that I spent Valentine’s day with an actual boyfriend. And it was such a mishap planned day! First the idea was to go into Philly. Did you know that if you choose to wait a week before Valentines Day, all the restaurants will have no openings? I didn’t but now I do know. So, we scrapped that idea. We decided to make it just a normal date night but with chocolate! We went to red lobster and then back to his place to watch Baby Mama. But then the next day, I decided since the plans being messed up was my fault that we would go out again. We were out all afternoon. By the time I got home, I was exhausted and had a headache but it was a good night. Today though I am looking forward to just staying home and watching TV, goofing off on the internet. It’s what I do best.
And just realized that today is Fat Tuesday and tomorrow is Ash Wednesday! It crept up on me! So, those that observe Lent, what are you giving up? I’m thinking Pepsi and chocolate since they are my comfort foods it seems. It’s going to be tough though since I have chocolate and Pepsi all around me as of late. I could also try and give up meat all 40 days but that last time I did that, I felt like crap.
