I had a very interesting dream last night.
I was at some outdoor event near the beach in the Northeast (I assume), and there were lots of people there... and some attractive black men.
I remember spotting two guys... and I'm not sure if I was trying to avoid one of them, or for what reason. The other one looked like a guy I met a little over a year ago in Boston. He was the friend of a guy I was dating at the time...yeah, this all sounds kinda strange
Background story: There was no chemistry with the guy I was actually going on dates with, but we occasionally hung out as friends at his urging. Eventually, I realized those 'friend' outings were not so friendly from his POV. But whatever, he once introduced me to 2 of his close friends. One of them was sooo cute.
I remember all 4 of us talking about our plans for that night, and I'd mentioned that my girls and I were going to a lounge at a particular hotel. I can pick up on vibes pretty well sometimes, and I had the inkling that the friend whom I thought was cute was at least intrigued by me, but of course this is all very tricky.
That night, I'm at the lounge with my friends, and I run into the 2 guys (not the dude I'd been hanging out with). Cute guy was talking to a girl, and as I walked by, I was like "oh hey! I met you earlier!" He leaves said girl and comes over to talk to me, and we end up talking for more than 30 minutes... about life, interests, he even gave me professional advice
Then, I was like: "weren't you with some friends, you should probably go back to the friend you were talking to." He was like: "oh, she's not a friend... I just met her tonight." I'm thinking:
oh... so you left the girl you were flirting with to come talk to me... hm.
Anyway, the night ended when I said I was going to check in with my friends, since I'd left them for so long. He must have taken it the wrong way, bc it was an awkward ending to the conversation.
If I hadn't been on some dates with his friend
(whom I hadn't even kissed, btw), that would have been the right time to exchange numbers. If anything, I felt like that guy's vibe and personality were a much much better fit for me than were the personalities than any of the other guys I was hanging out with at the time
6 months later, I ran into the cute guy randomly at a restaurant... and given how things had ended with his friend (very sourly), I wasn't sure whether to say anything. So, I didn't
He definitely recognized me, because he kept looking at me. But yeah, I just acted like he was nobody
Back to the dream:
So, I think I see the cute guy at the event. He seems nervous, keeps looking my way and talking to his friends, etc. I am somehow sitting on a rock near the beach (super random), and finally he comes over. He's like heey, not sure if you remember me?
I'm pretending that I don't... cause I don't want to seem thirsty or some BS like that
and I see myself recalling the incident at the restaurant. So, he's about to introduce himself and he's like: I"m Alex.
In the dream, I'm thinking:
Who's Alex?? Cute guy's name isn't Alex! It starts with a K.
Womp. The end.
