Exercises in Manipulation
I haven't been sleeping normally lately, and pretty much its because of Tuesday post-debate. I returned to see the TV and lights were on in the living room thing and no one was around. Rachel returns with a whole gaggle of guys. One of which develops a big crush on me.
I slept with him because he looks like Julie. And in the weird and scary department...he's 17. EEEUGH. I knew he was a freshman, but I didn't know he was 17! Eesh. I feel like a cougar or Mary Kay Letourneau or something.
I told Shereen about it and she tried to put it in perspective for me. She explained that since I am a little older, it makes him feel really really nice and special. Well...at least he's in college? And he won't be 18 until late next month...poor thing can't even vote...eeeueuuuugh.
Thing is, he's a sweetheart, but I know I would never seriously date him, at least not while I'm in college. He really does like me a lot, and he's nice enough...it's just...GAH.
So I feel like I'm manipulating this poor kid. I am, but-- I'm trying to make it as clear as possible that I don't want anything more out of him. But I have to be nice. Right. Nice.
