Let Me Guide You

I was beginning to think I wasn't going to see Matt again.

We hadn't been alone together since my protest against phone fights, and I hadn't heard from him in over a week. But last night, just as I was going to sleep, he called me, not once, but five times in a row, until I got out of bed. He asked if I wanted to go to church with him the next day, then if I wanted to go get something to eat with him, since he'd been stood up by a group of his co-workers.

Of course, I knew this overture meant his girlfriend was out of town. If she was around, he wouldn't have any use for me. I don't harbor any delusions about our "friendship."

My justification for hanging out is that he did still have my shot glasses, silicone automotive lubricant, and feng shui books.

We got some Wendy's, watched some movies, and managed to avoid all forms of physical contact, despite sleeping in the same bed. We spent the morning lounging around his apartment, watching more movies, and observing the colorful inhabitants of Chinatown, before going to Croatia Fest at Seattle Center.

That was totally amazing, BTW. Pictures to come, I hope.

After church, he dropped me off without so much as a "see you soon" and sped home to the g/f, who will never know about any of this.

At least, if I were his mistress, I'd be getting sex out of the deal.

Wow.
Same bed? That's something. He might not be using you...when his GF's around it might be harder to see you, she could see you as a threat or something. You neeever know. Or you might know, and I'm just sounding like an idiot.

I haven't been to the Seattle Center in foreeeever I miss it :( It was my favorite place 10 years ago...You must've been in Seattle during the Heart Walk? I was at Qwest Field with my team doing a gig for Heart Association

Wow.. sounds complicated. I hope things would clear up soon, no one likes being a side dish.

That sounds rough, I don't know if I could be friends with him.

And yes, hair ruiners be damned.

Blegh. frustrating.

I guess if you don't kid yourself about what's going on then there's nothing really wrong.

But I can see where that situation gets frustrating. Good luck.
