Why Bother?

Hello readers! Apologies for lack of blogging lately. Unlike paiting pimp, I have not been absent because of a relationship. I just fell off the dating wagon for a while...
NONETHELESS!
What is the deal with guys texting you, maybe asking you something, maybe just saying whats up. We respond and then... nothing. What? Why the hell are you even texting me?
Oh, and how about this one. Here is the text message convo:
Him: Hey how have you been? When are we hanging out again?
You: Pretty good... umm whenever, lets hang out
Him: OK, well let me know when you are free and we'll do something

...What?? What was the point of that? Are you asking me to hang out? Then effing ask me to hang out!! Yes, Im talking about 5-0. Lamesauce
Grab your sack, and waggle it.

Green Dating, Part 2

After much rescheduling, 5-O and I finally met up for a little reunion. Something I call, tales of first dates, part deux.
I think we were both a bit nervous. It did feel, odd. But after a couple bottles of sake, we were good to go. Overall it was nice. But i felt like I could take it or leave it. There definitely wasnt the same spark or excitement there was with round 1.
We will both be 'celebrating' our 'anniversary' in Vegas in a few weeks. Not sure how that's going to go. Dont really care. Ill be with my girlfriends and a ridiculous ratio of men to women, all cops of course.
Should be a good story.

Its a Recession, Why Not Recycle?

Man it feels good to have the upper hand! Im not sure what came over me, but 5-0 and I have been talking, and he is quite excited about that. Its rather entertaining. Asked me to dinner right off the bat! This should be good. Lets just hope no feelings come over me when I see him, otherwise I am so out of there.

I say, put the past in the past, and have fun! Im a 23 year old woman, time to live it up! Love it!

In more recycling news, Comic Book Guy invited me to some fundraiser on Sunday. After contemplation I decided to go and he totally bailed. Never heard back. He always does this. Such lamesauce considering he has made quite the effort to hang out with me.

Stay tuned!

UNBELIEVABLE!

So get this. You all remember 5-0? Well you can imagine my surprise when I received a text message at 2:30 in the morning last night... from HIM!! What?
And-- he 'jokingly' asks if he could stop by! Are you kidding me right now? How can this guy have no respect for the situation. I mean fine. Lets just say he was trying to reconnect. Do you think its best to contact me at 2:30am and joke about coming over? I DONT THINK SO!!
In the end i just asked.. what do you want? He says he was thinking about me and wanted to say hi, but he realizes it wasn't the best time..... ya think??
What is it? I mean, they always come crawling back. The question is: Is 5-0 trying to get back into my life or was a just a number he saved in his little black book. Time will tell I suppose.
Stay tuned.

And Your Name is??

Apparently all men I come across named Jason are assholes. Ooops. Guess we arent supposed to use real names in this blog. Oh well. Im just sayin.

5-0 turned out to be a dusch. I swear, this guy has him game figured out perfectly. He lures women in, and know that a girl loves being loved. He gives her all the attention in the world, does and says all the right things, and then leaves you. With no real explanation. Try growing some balls and talking for one. Text message? What a cop out. I can't believe after the time spent 5-0 was so heartless he couldnt even provide me with any reasoning, or closure.

This guy obviously has issues. Besides the dating debacle. We had quite the conversation about 'problems' he is dealing with. And someone even got teary eyed--no, it wasnt me. I guess i would just think after opening yourself up to someone like that you would have the decency to call them.
5-0, I really didnt think you to be an asshole. Looks like I was wrong.

The Beginning of the end?

I have to agree with Painting Pimp that there seems to be some barrier between the communication of men and women. More specifically on the male side. I think of myself as an honest person, who will tell it like it is and not string someone along. I'm not going to tell you I "need a break" or "now just isn't the right time." Because quite frankly. That is just going to give you hope that something is possible in the future. And who needs to waste their time waiting around.
I was quite surprised that when 5-0 sent me the dreaded "we rushed into this, I'm not sure if I'm ready, i need a break to think" speech he sent via text message. Really? Listen, I know, I get it. I don't like confrontation either. But this really should have at least been a phone conversation. Honestly, I'm guessing he didn't want to be confronted about some 'other issue' I stupidly made a point to bring up. I KNOW! IM AN IDIOT! I WAS PMS-ING AND COULDN'T HELP MYSELF.
Quite frankly, I have to agree with you 5-0. This whole thing with us went from 0-100 fast. And I have been thinking it the whole time. But guess what. That's not normally how I operate. And a girl cant help herself. If the guy i'm dating is playing the bf card and setting the pace... i will fall in line, unless of course I wasn't into it. So please. Don't make me feel like i'm the one rushing things.. when you have been in control this entire time.
No, I don't want this to be the end of 5-0. Like I have said, he is an amazing person and very kind, and one of the few people I have had true feelings for in some time. But I can't help to think that this "break" was only a gentle way of putting the inevitable... break up. Is that even what you call it when you have been dating for 3 weeks?
Its sad. And if this truly is the end of our "relationship" then its time for me to take a break from dating. Seriously. It is exhausting. I have had to deal with shit like this since January and I need a break!!

Men and Women, this is truth:
Dating is great for the first week or 2. After that it, it sucks until you put a name on it.

To Date, or not to Date?

That is the question isn't it?

Ugh, I swear this is the worst part about dating. When you reach that point where you start to wonder if and how many other people they are dating. And you wonder if its too early to be thinking that, which it almost always is. And you wonder, Should I be dating other people too? But then you think, well, I don't want to be dating anyone else. But you feel like you should be if its too soon to be thinking you shouldn't be with this other person.

In short.. way too many thoughts. Way too many things you can never fully understand or figure out unless you bring it up.

Its been 3 weeks dating 5-o and I only recently was hit with the thought of.. is he dating? Literally, last night.

It all started because he joked that i sent him dirty texts on Friday when I was drunk. Which I quickly reminded with proof of text history that I did no such thing. The unsettling part was when I said he must have received them from someone else, hes said nothing. Nothing at all to confirm or deny. Which is basically confirming. I had no idea what to say. And i guess it didn't really hit me until this morning. That is not good.

So I found myself thinking the dreaded questions... Who is it? How many? How serious?

This blows.. up the asshole.

The sad thing is.. I'm falling for this guy, and if we stopped seeing each other, i would probably be taking a much need break from dating....

I hate this shit.

just when you think they are perfect....

BAM!! they do something dushy!! Well fine.. im going out with my broads tonight and having some vino!

They Call it the Happiest Place on Earth....

And I have to say... it was, for me anyway! My full day with 5-O started off with cuddling and breakfast at La Pain. After that we hit the road to D-land! Now if you know me, you know that I am very picky when it comes to judging Disneyland partners. We all know Painting Pimp is at the top of my list. But I have to say, 5-O, not bad. We both get rather annoyed with people who think they own the road because they have strollers and those who feel it necessary to stop in the middle of a walk way... think like the freeway... PULL OVER!!

At the beginning of the day we made jokes about how people who are old and tired ride the train around and we joked about going back to the car to rest. Little did we know, we would be doing both of those things later in the day. Yes, i'll admit, we were both pretty lame.

By 4 or 5 o'clock we had gone on about 4 rides but had walked through both parks quite a bit. We hopped on the train and road it around the park...TWICE.

The day ended with a fabulous dinner at club 33 and a minute or so of the fireworks show on the balcony.

Overall, a very nice day, and we weren't sick of each other by the end of it! I think I like him :)

Bring on the Cheese

Warning: If you are disgusted by lovely dovy cheese.. do not read!

Ok, all I have to say is CBG who?? CBG is a distant memory! Tell me this isn't fate:
My friend talks me into doing free 7 days on match.com. I sign up, I hate it. Don't see anything interesting at all. I cancel about 3 days in. After I cancel, I get an email from a guy saying hes interested etc and to call him. I give him my personal email and we email back and forth a bit only to find out that we are both in Vegas the upcoming weekend for the same event. With high hope we make plans to see each other in Vegas.

Let me just say, in all my 22 years I have never felt the way I feel about 5-O. Yes, that is what he has been dubbed, and yes, it is what you think it is. He is the most amazing person I have ever met and I can't stop thinking about him. I have no idea how 2 people can find each other completely by chance and end up traveling to the same place on the same weekend and have everything be completely perfect... is it FATE? I'm betting on yes...
