I debated on this one because I wasn't sure how much details or information I wanted to share about myself. But I figure if I am going to be honest about the worst dates, I might as well put my own flaws out there as well...
So the last story I left off with, I had dumped a guy at the bar and then got the number of a very younger guy. One of my guy friends is dating a girl younger than him so before I met and realized how awesome she is I referred to her as the high school girl. Now I just got the number of a guy even younger so his name will be the middle schooler. I debated whether to text him or not. He left that up to me which was a nice play on his part.
The next evening while still debating on whether to text him I attended a Superbowl party at Papa Russ's house. After drinks and laughs I was dared by the hostess to send texts to strangers (well not strangers to her just strangers to me). First up was her nephew that she actually had thought about setting me up with previously. So I typed in the number and sent a message that said "Your aunt tells me you like blondes". Innocent enough. Apparently he had been on the receiving end of the setup quite enough and while we chatted for a few days no date became of it.
Next up was Hollywood. He is cute, had a job, no kids and a few acting jobs. For anyone who knows me unless I would get hurt, I usually do not turn down a dare. The next dare was a little more interesting. I took a picture of my new spartan shirt a few weeks ago which is kinda tight and does not have my face in the pic. Not sure why but I had it on my phone. So I sent that pic to a stranger with the message "I hear you like nipples". Yup not my most dignified moment. I really did not ever think I would get a response from Hollywood and did it just for the laughs of the moment.
Had a fun night and as I went home I realized if a 27 yr old was willing to hang out with me then I should perhaps take a chance too. When I got home I sent him a text and we set up a time to go out for a drink the following Thursday. In the next few days I also received texts from Hollywood and we decided to meet for a drink as well.
I guess sometimes when it rains it pours :) I had two guys who were completely different from one another but both interesting in their own ways. I was starting to think that perhaps my luck was turning. And turn it did. Although I liked both of them, I was enjoying my new single life and did not want to give up my new found independence. This is where a first date turns into a booty call. Not on the first date mind you but eventually they both slipped into that I may not talk to you for a few weeks but if you are not busy let's get together kinda thing. Hollywood and I spent many Sunday fundays throughout the next few months. The thing about booty calls is that you both have to be honest about it. That is why it worked. I was free to see what else was out there and so was he and there is no reason to be angry or jealous. I still text him back and forth every once in a while but the initial thrill has worn off for both of us.
Not so much with the middle schooler. It has been 10 months and though I have other crazy stories, we still see each other once in a while. I guess this is my transition story and he is my transition guy. If I find someone I really like, I will go for it but in the meantime, who doesn't want to spend a long night with a cute boy???? Never fear my readers, the best stories are to follow...so gear up for some tinder with a nice large alcoholic beverage because you know everything is better with a drink.
