It almost was nice again when Eomer and Aychamo began their metamorphosis into mature men capable of personal interaction at an honest and intimate level
Hey fuck you man, I was always a mature man capable of honesty! Aychamo was the whore. I"ve slept with maybe 12 women in my life. I"m just emotionally distant and guarded!

EOMER: What"s your latest stuff man?
Well when shit went sour with Chuck, I wasn"t sure if we were done or not. She did the usual girly bullshit. Said that things weren"t working, but then that she did still like me and wouldn"t be straddling me in bed if she didn"t, blah blah blah. I"ve posted this all before, but will refresh again. So after that, I called her later that week and she said she was feeling really down about losing her job (which I hadn"t known up to that point, and along with the hockey game crack beer and new BC cycle seemed to explain the craziness) and didn"t really feel like leaving the house. I told her to let me know if there was anything I could do, otherwise we"d talk the following week. That conversation, in my mind anyway, gave me some hope that maybe things weren"t totally done yet.
But I hedged my bets and started spamming the divorce thing on PoF, and got a few responses. I"ll come back to that.
So I called Chuck the following week (so about 12 days after I had last seen her), and chatted for 5-10 min with her. The conversation seemed fine, and she was on her way to a friend"s place and I was leaving the next day for the weekend, so I said something along the lines of "well I know you"re busy most days of the week, but give me a call if you want to hang out" and she said cool. The conversation seemed fine, but I could tell that she probably wouldn"t be calling. So I waited until last Sunday, and because I just can"t help myself despite all of your advice, sent her this on Facebook:
Me said:
I will reluctantly take the hint...as I guess I don"t have much choice otherwise! I figured I"d give it one last shot calling you last week, if only because the last time we"d hung out you"d claimed you still wanted to see me. Color me confused I guess.
It"s unfortunate that things didn"t work out, I genuinely enjoyed your company and hope you did mine.
I"d ask you to do me a favor. This probably sounds weird, but I"d appreciate it if you"d remove me from your friend list on Facebook. Not cause I"m angry or offended or anything, mainly just to remove the temptation to creep on you .
I hope you find whatever it is you"re looking for, and that everything works out for your Australian adventure. Should we cross paths don"t be a stranger.
Cya around, best of luck to you.
I dunno, I"m the kind of guy that needs closure. I can"t just stop seeing one and never hear from them again, especially not if I had fairly strong feelings for them. I realize that the above message did nothing for me, but it made me feel better anyway. She removed me within 30 minutes from Facebook, but didn"t respond for a couple days:
Her said:
Yeah... I"m sorry.
You are a wicked guy, we had fun, but I don"t think we would have worked as a couple. And I wasn"t lying when i said i still wanted to see you. But I just wanted to make sure it didn"t seem like a date, that"s really not fair to you. I know i really should have been more clear, I"m terrible at that sort of thing. So i kind of avoid it... again sorry
Best of luck right back at you, I hope your new ride is treating you well. And I"m sure we will run into each other. I work downtown now remember.
Later,
Chuck
So as I said, usual girl bullshit. She said she wasn"t "lying", and maybe she wasn"t at the time and doesn"t remember the exact conversation, but she was quite clear that she supposedly did want to see me again on a dating/romantic basis. But for whatever reason has convinced herself that she didn"t say it. Chicks .
I"m still conflicted. Half of me all along was like "dude she is way younger, she lives at home, she"s going travelling for at least several months within the next year, she"s very religious and so is her family and they"re putting big pressure on her to get married and crank out babies, you don"t have a lot in common" and so on. And that rational side of me thinks that it"s best things ended when they did and that I didn"t have much of a chance to get attached. And considering how quickly I did develop feelings for her, it IS a good thing. See, I don"t fall for girls very often. Maybe 2 or 3 in my life that I"ve truly had deep feelings for past the first month or two. I"m glad I didn"t make it very far into anything with her, because things wouldn"t have worked out and I"d just be in even deeper.
But the other half of me is like "but she"s so awesome and fun to hang out with and blah blah blah." I"m hoping this passes pretty quickly, but I"m having a hard time getting her out of my head.
So yeah, getting back to the PoF responses, I ended up chatting with a couple girls over MSN, Facebook, and then texts. One of them, the Persian girl I posted pics of, was really forward almost immediately about creeping on Facebook (her words!), and then gave me her cell number unasked so I could drunken text her over the weekend while I was skiing (I didn"t mention the strippers on the bus). The other girl I"ve still been chatting online with a bit, and once or twice on the phone, but we haven"t been able to work out meeting up, and it"s looking like maybe she"s not wanting to now.
So yeah, the Persian girl is 30 (2.5 years older), a finance manager at a car dealership, loves cars (but drives a TSX, ugh), very smart, has her shit together, and very attractive. She"s also a bit of a high maintenance princess, and can be a bit of a bitch. That"s not really a fair term, she"s just very assertive. And I think that"s a good thing, because I"ve got a pretty strong personality and girls that are pushovers just really don"t do it for me, because I end up dominating them.
First time we met she came to a bar I was at with a couple buddies, along with her friend. Her friend left quite quickly once she had scoped us out, and she hung out with the 3 of us playing pool and buck hunter. She also insisted, after finding out my buddy had weed, that we go out to the parking lot and have a couple bowls. She"s also a part time smoker like me (only when drinking). Second time I was feeling lazy and just texted her that she could drop by and watch the hockey game at my place if she wanted, and she came by. As it turned out, a friend of hers lived in the building, and she came up to my suite and we hung out, smoked a few bowls and played Rock Band. Third time she was out for a friend"s birthday, so me and another guy came by and drank with them, and she came back to my place that night and after initially doing the "no I"m not like that" act for a couple hours in bed chatting, we hooked up. Last night was our first "real" date when it was just the two of us. We went to a pretty nice restaurant across the street from my place for dinner, and then to watch the Oilers beat up on the Canadiens. She came up to my place after, but not much happened as she started to feel sick either from too much hockey game crack beer, or the fish she ate.
I think she"s pretty awesome so far and enjoy hanging out with her. But already I"m concerned that I"m probably going to do my usual thing and not develop any strong feelings for her, whether because that"s just how things seem to go with 95% of the girls I meet, or because I"m still a bit hung up on Chuck.
So that"s about where I stand right now!
