B365V2.146 - Loop closed

Well I have kept you all abreast of things going on, it only seems natural that I go ahead and give you the status quo.

After not receiving the phone call from Misty this weekend, I pretty much perceived that as the writing on the wall moment, nothing was going to come of anything.  But Monday morning I did received a message from her, saying that she is still coming out of a relationship and isn't ready to jump into said waters again.  That is fine I said, when she suggested that we go out some day after work, I assumed it would be for coffee or something, I wasn't expecting us to start making wedding plans or rent a hotel room to get our respective freaks on.  While I admit I do like her and she knows as much, I hardly know her.  There are only so many things to do in downtown Pittsburgh, it is not a Mecca of things to do or trouble to instigate.  So I said listen, if you want to grab a coffee sometimes, no strings attached, that's cool with me, if not that is fine as well.  I made a point of saying that my last relationship also sucked, and after that disaster (referred to in the blog sometimes as the crazy Canadian incident), I am not eager to put myself in a position to be lied to again.  Not saying Misty would lie to me, but then like I said earlier, I hardly know her.  It is one thing to have an occasional conversation in passing with someone, it is quite another to climb inside their head and see how things operate there.  So I have no idea what she is or isn't capable of.  It is one reason why I am not looking to rush into a relationship, I don't trust anyone.  If anyone reading this wishes to perceive it as an insult, I pretty much don't care, looking after my own self interest is paramount to assuaging anyone's feelings.

So everything is pretty much where it all started, we may or may not go out for coffee after work some day.  That was an exercise in boredom for you the reader,  wasn't it?

  1. So over the last few months I discovered a few things about a few people that have left me wondering how...just how will I ever be able to: 1) trust; 2) open up to; 3) be willing to expend my emotional currency on.

    Yea, no advice. Good luck. btw I don't think I like this woman. Only because she didn't know how to approach or respond. Not her fault, just habit. Most people don't want to hurt someone who is interested in them. That being said, don't you dare open the door to the friendzone. Which is what you did offering no strings attached coffee. Nothing personal, but I'm a woman. I know these things. Take that for whatever its worth.

  2. I doubt the coffee will actually happen, if it does I am not holding my breath waiting for it to happen. But I do get the point she is coming out of a two + year relationship and isn't ready to hop back onto that bandwagon again, truth be told I don't know if I could trust someone enough to do that myself at this point. Liking someone and wanting to be involved with them are two different things in my book, I like her (which she knows) that doesn't mean I want to delve int o a relationship with her, I barely know her save for occasionally bumping into each other because of the proximity of our respective workplaces.
