Dudes, today I found the BEST BUMPER STICKER EVERRRR!!
It's so true!! I wander around like a mofo and wouldn't ever consider myself lost - just exploring the territory. AH-MAZING!!!
Makes my life.
BWAHAHAHAAHAHA!! Thanks for the post Wendy!
Not really sure what is happening here ... but looky looky the email I just got on Facebook:
PS. The humpty dance gives me a girl boner.
So, I’ve been hanging with this guy who is pretty r-a-d. Like, totally rad actually. I would call myself in “likes” with him. He is super hot and sexy, possibly the best kisser I’ve ever kissed (ever), smart, funny, and like, an actual grown up man. And he’s younger than me. A lot younger than me. Four years to be exact. Go figure. I am an admitted reverse cougar i.e. I like OGs also know as old guys… but not that old. Just like, 5-10 years older than me, though I’ve been known to go even older. Us brainiacs often do. But here this guy comes out of nowhere—the musician lad who I referenced in my #nerdbooks collection post as thinking my brain was sexy—and he’s a total freakin rocker hot stud nice guy. Bam! Didn’t see that one coming!
This whole thing is in it’s very, very early stages. I don’t even know if it can be referred to as a “thing.” But he’s the first guy in a long time who has been one thousand percent the opposite of total douche so I am letting myself have a mild to mildly intense crush on him.
All of this has a point, I promise.
Last week, he was having phone troubles, so he Facebook messaged me. We were not Facebook friends, but we have mutual friends so it wouldn’t have been hard to find me. He was writing to book me up for the coming weekend, and we had this hilarious chain of FB messaging that lasted all week. #yaycity. We hung out over the weekend, it was awesome. Score.
But we still aren’t Facebook friends. And I don’t think I want to be. Do I? I haven’t even really stalked him much on there, other than to see that his profile was public. But I stopped myself from delving into it. My profile is definitely not public, so he couldn’t even click through my profile pics. Dusty likes to keep it on the DL. I don’t want just anyone creeping me on there! That’s how you get real stalkers. And I’m totally paranoid about getting a stalker. I don’t know why, it’s completely irrational.
But anyway, neither of us has initiated the friend request. I’m kind of liking it that way though, at least for now. It’s keeping the mystery for one thing, and I’m all about the mystery. Also, I have a way of becoming the best of besties with people very quickly, and this translates to my dating life, which translates to disaster. One second I’m casually dating someone and then before I even know what happened I’m someone’s girlfriend thinking when the F did I agree to that and do I even want it? And then I flip, and then I run away. So maybe holding off letting him into my cyberlife will keep the bus going at an appropriate speed rather than warp speed? And I’m thinking it’s best to stay out of one another’s Facebook lives when we’re not exclusive. I wouldn’t want to see girls flirting with him on the ‘book. I don’t care if it goes on at this point, I just don’t want to see it or know about it. And I wouldn’t want him to see boys flirting with me I don’t think. The more concrete danger though, is that I have like, one million guy friends. I know they say that girls and guys can’t be just friends but I wholeheartedly disagree with that. From my past lives in Austin and Syracuse, I keep in touch with more men than women… I don’t know why, I’ve always been a guy’s girl I guess. I am one of those rare individuals that build lifelong friendships with men and women. But knowing that most people don’t agree with my point of view, he could see something one of my boy pals wrote and mistake it for evidence that I was boning that dude, and then get his feelings hurt. I don’t know… am I missing anything? Are there any reasons why I’d want to friend him at this point? Or should I continue to play coy and let him make the move when he’s ready? That’s what I’ve been doing with him in every respect thus far and it’s working like a charm so perhaps I should stick to that. What do you think? When do you guys usually become Facebook friends with people you date?
