Today I feel so blaaaah. Lonely, even. I've actually been feeling this way for a little bit. Every September used to always be so exciting: reuniting with my college friends, having pow-wows, drinking hot cider, baking cookies, drinking wine.
Post-college we still did some of these things at each other's apartments. Now, the BFF who lived closest to me is on the other side of the country. I don't have that partner to do all the things I used to do with... Bummer. I've been feeling like this since the very first week of September... and it's funny... it hit us all at once a particular weekend. We were sending texts to each other like: "I miss my friends! *cries and collapses*"
On the dating front, things are lonely as well. I've gotten more messages from Mr. Cuffingtons, and I haven't responded.
The guy I was SO excited about? Well, he told me this weekend that he has had a lot on his plate/mind lately and that though he likes being around me and talking to me, this is honestly not a good time for him
It took me by surprise, because things were going well. I mean, unless I'm suddenly delusional or something. We talked frequently, had a few lengthy phone conversations, had only gone on 3 dates because of our schedules, but the dates were GREAT: conversation flowed easily, a lot of laughter, we talked about how we've felt in the past, etc. etc., and it seemed that we were scoping each other's relationship potential... given some of the questions we would ask. Mid- date 3, we even organized another date or so. At the end of date 3, we suggested another one, too. So, yeah, it was a surprise and a major let-down. I didn't ask questions... Just said ok, thanks for being honest, and that was it. Given that I don't know details, I am not willing to wait around, because I don't know how true his reasoning is
There are people who continue to be interested in me, but it is unfortunate that I am not drawn to them romantically, despite thinking that they're awesome. Sometimes I wonder if that's a problem with me.
I feel like work has been sucking the life out of me, and I am trying to regain balance. I feel like time is passing by so fast, and I am wondering what exactly I've been up to.
