Catching Up
I haven’t posted in a while because, well, my life is pretty dull right now. Things have slowed down with Tom, one of the cute English boys; last week he was talking about flying over to the U.S. to see me in July or August, this week, I’ve barely talked to him. He did send me quite the delicious photo of himself, though, so I gotta say, if he reappears at some point, I ain’t gonna be mad at him … and I haven’t even seen the goods yet. This was just a body shot. Dayum.
Houston Guy and I talk now and again, nothing much. He’ll be ok in a few years, once he gets his act together. He’s not bad as someone to text every once in a while.
Tonight, while watching yet another Lifetime movie, I was thinking about why I haven’t had a post-divorce relationship that lasted longer than 3 or 4 months. Of course, the easy answer is, they were all douchebags. But, personal growth does not come from blaming others, I’m afraid. The answer, unfortunately, is me. I’m the reason why I haven’t had a relationship that’s lasted.
I expect big changes in the next year. I will (fingers crossed) be having my gastric bypass surgery sometime within the next 2 months and I need to focus on myself right now …. although I’m a sucker for a cute boy, especially if he’s on another continent lol.
Online Update
I haven’t posted in a few days because well, between the Red Wings winning the Stanley Cup, and school, I haven’t had much else to talk about.
- SMG is well, kinda boring me. We had discussed getting together but the first weekend our schedules worked out for was at the beginning of August. Umm yeah. That’s too far away for me. Anyway he was super gung-ho last weekend but I have barely talked to him this week while he was in DC on business.
- Online flirtation #2 is NJ Guy (NJG). He has a filthy mouth but it works for him. Ironically, he lives in the same part of NJ as my ex-husband. Fantastic. NJG just entered the picture a few days ago and I don’t see this going anywhere but it’s fun.
- Candidate #3 is this guy in England. We’ll call him UK Guy #1, because I gotta tell y’all, there are so many hotties in the UK, if Social Me is any representation. His picture on Crackbook is of him looking all tousled, home from the beach. I had fantasies of him being this rich, titled British guy, but no such luck. He’s 37 and a plasterer … and I had to look up what that was. And it’s exactly what it sounds like.
So, yeah. I’m doing my damndest to keep thing at the level of entertainment. With SMG, like I’ve said before, I know where he’s at emotionally … I was there 3+ years ago when I was banging the hell out of BoyToy. I thought I was doing peachy-keen but in reality I just wanted attention, attention, attention so I didn’t have to feel … and I certainly wasn’t capable of giving anything in return. If SMG were to fly into town tonight, would I sleep with him? Oh, probably. But will I wait until August 1 to do so? Nope, because that is more than enough time for Miss Obstinate O to develop an emotional attachment and that is the LAST thing I need, especially with a guy like him!
