The end of 2010

So, what has happened since May 2010?  I travelled to Vegas, NYC, and Boston for the summer. Spent most of the summer at the outdoor pool and playing beach vball.

For some reason, I ended up dating the same guy as this girl that I know...let's call her Jane.  So Jane and I were matched up on line with the exact same guy.  How did I find out? She was telling me about this great date that she had and was terribly excited at the prospect of dating this new guy.  As she told me the story, I instinctively had the sinking feeling that I had gone out with the exact same guy.  Without her even finishing her story, I stopped her in mid-sentence and said "i went out with the same guy".  In order for her to validate my statement as she suddenly stopped mid-sentence and challenged me by asking me what the guy's name is. So as I uttered his name i could sense a feeling of disbelief, shock, and panic on the other end of the telephone.

So long story short, we both dated the same guy for a month before i gave him an ultimatum to pick between us.  He refused to give me a straight answer and to this day we are still just friends.  He said that I was a question mark. After he firmed up that we would forever be friends, we went out twice more where he somehow treated me as though we were on a date.  When we were supposed to date, he treated me like a friend, when we are supposed to be friends, he treats me as though we are on a date.

During all this drama, I somehow hooked up with this guy that I had a fling with last November when I was in Boston.  We also saw each other a few weeks ago which was one of the best night out that I've had in awhile but recently we haven't been in touch.  I have a soft spot for that one too.  I should really toughen up.

So I went out on two more dates in the past week.  Both ended up with no sparks.

This year has been pretty good.  We will see what will happen in 2011.

Happy holidays everyone!

back to blogging....

So my apologies...i've been MIA for awhile.  Truth be told, i've had a series of bad dating experiences....from liars and losers....what can i say, i've been traumatized.

So where do i meet all these people. At random....no referrals, no introductions, no one to vouch for these people.

One guy told me he worked in money markets as a manager with 20 people working under him.  Sadly, I happened to know this girl who works in his office who advised that not only does he work in the back office not the front office, but he has no one under him.  She emailed me his info from the employee directory and after i googled his job title, i found an expired job posting for a 15 month contract position to sub in for someone who was seconded to a systems project.

So I had to txt him "i don't think we have much in common.  I have to focus on dating other people"...

March 30, 2010

After 7 months of hiatus, i'm back. So much has happened.

There was a Mr. November which I ran into last weekend. He made me laugh and made me cry.

There was also a Mr. January with whom I parted ways right before Valentines day. He is friends with this other guy that I was dating last year.  Saw both of them the other night, together.

Recently, I met another guy. He lives a minute away from me. I've known him about three weeks now. I have a soft spot for him. Not sure what is going on but I think I really like him.

That is all for now....

Sunday - December 27th

After a long hiatus, I'm back.

So in the past few months, not much has happened. I met two younger guys in their 30s who wanted a fling. I told them both that I am not interested. I've been keeping a low profile, enjoying my solitude.  Blocking out the noise and riff raff.

Yesterday, I went out on a date with a guy who is here from France. Had korean food. Not sure that sparks flew but was an ok time.

Been catching up on movies. No plans so far for new years. Will keep you posted.

can't seem to fall asleep at nigh

Has it ever happened to you to toss and turn in bed at night unable to fall asleep.

Insomnia - as you struggle to fall asleep but can't seem to be able too, anxiety and almost panic set in. The more you panic and the more anxious you get, the more you can't fall asleep.

Anyway, nothing eventful happening tonight. Going to bed early.

breaking the silence

I just realized I've been MIA for 16 days. So much for keeping up with this blog.

Well truth be told, I've been extremely busy the past two weeks.

Now to think back to two weeks ago...I had a work function the wednesday two weeks ago where I went home early, followed by going to bed early thurs and fri.

Saturday I went to Buffalo with a gf of mine and sunday, the cute young guy that I'm seeing came to see me.

As for the past week, I had a work function Tuesday, then went with a coworker to this drop in craft workroom.

Wed was invited to an improptu fashion show at the distillery district last minute. Went to see an improv show afterwards.

Thursday went to the Roosevelt Room where they served mini kobe slider burgers free from 5-7pm. Had a great time with friends.

Friday played squash and then headed to little italy for dinner and drinks. Called it an early night.

Stayed in last night. Had dinner with friends at Sushi Time on Queen st. Called it an early night.

Tonight, also quiet night, pretty uneventful. I've given up on the dating scene.

Thursday night and Friday

So I thought I was going to stay in last night. Turns out I receive a txt from a gf of mine telling me her bf got a new job and was out celebrating. She asked me to join them. So I decide to head out at 10pm to meet them at the Irish Embassy. Apparently, my friend's bf's good friend will also be there.

Had a good time but went home at 1230pm as we all had to work the next day. Overall a fun night.

Tonight, I cancelled on dinner at Kiwe. Kind of feeling under the weather. Might go to the fifth later if I'm feeling up for it.

More later. Taking a power nap.
