*sigh*
remember the girl I was telling you about?
i think the last you heard was we were gonna hangout LAST weekend (not this past one but the one before) and she was gonna comeout with me and my friends? and then she fell asleep and didn't feel good so she didn't come out...
so thursday of last week she texted me asking what I was doing that weekend... and I had been like (before she texted me) "I'm not gonna bother, she seems cool but i don't know her, and i asked her out kinda and she said no and I'm overthinking this so I'll just let this one go..." kinda thing, like clearly it wasn't a big deal...
well she texted me... and my friends were pretty much all gone for the weekend... and i said that and said so i had no plans... and she said her friends ditched her too and she was looking for something to do...
so we agreed to go out for drinks friday night... I thought it was a date...
long story short; she cameover like 7:30... we had a drink at my place until almost 9... (this went not awkward, but somewhat... quiet, not bad at all but I had feared ALLLLL DAY it'd be wicked awkward since her and I never had an actual conversation, luckily we were watching tv...
)
but then we went to the bar, she didn't drink because she drove over, I just had a few to take the edge off... and we talked for like 3 straight hours without ANY awkwardness, no silence... no dull moments... I mean it went extremely well... it was a lot of fun and it was really nice...
at the end of the night I told her I had fun and we should do it again sometime, she was like "honestly Joe, I had a BLAST... but I just don't wanna give you the wrong idea or lead you on or anything..."
so i was just like... "seriously, I'm so relieved you said that... because I'm not sure if I told you or not, but I just got out of a 7 year relationship like 2.5 months ago... I'm not looking for anything either... and I'd NEVER want you to think I was using you as a rebound or anything... I simply had fun tonight with you, thought we had a lot in common, and would just love to hangout again sometime"
and then I could tell she was relieved... and she was like "yeah absolutely"
so I mean... it wasn't a date for that reason... but i know we both had a fun night and maybe we'll hangout again sometime, maybe not...
but I treated it like a date, and I didn't talk about Allie, didn't think about Allie... wasn't awkward... and carried good conversation...
