So theres a boy...

A month or so ago I met this guy. Immediately I was attracted to his promiscuous eyes and his very boyish and very cute smile. He is a friend of a friend. I met him at a local night club. Not exactly my first choice to meet someone that could potentially be more to me later but, why not. Two weeks ago I saw him again. My friend, he, and I all hung out. The night went good, we all had a few drinks and were just being social butterflies. By the end of the night I saw that he seemed to be getting a little more curious. This left me wondering whether or not I should pursue anything...

A couple of days after that night at the club I decided to play Myspace detective and find him. With no struggle at all, do to my great Myspace stalking abilities, I found him and messaged him. I invited him to be my friend and asked if he was going to the club on that next Saturday. I later got a response with great interest and he said he would like to hang out again at the club. I didn't talk to him again until the night we were to meet at the club. I checked my Myspace from the club and he had left me his cell phone number. I text him to see if he was coming and he replied with,"yes shortly, see you there." I like the little girl that I am, got all excited and awaited his attendance. He ended up stopping by but only for a short while. He was with some friends from work that were straight and had never been to a gay club before. It was fun introducing them to the scene. While I was dancing with a couple of my good friends that I went with, I noticed he was gone. I checked my phone for any text messages and sure enough there was a message that said he had to leave and that he would talk to me later. I was bummed but it was all good because I had a good buzz going and I just went back to dancing.

The next day he text me in the morning while he was at work. Then a little later he called me. It was Labor Day weekend and he invited me to go to his co-workers BBQ. I was a little sketchy because I didn't know him all that well and thought that his co-workers BBQ may be a little intimate for me for a first real going out experience. With some doubts still in my mind I decided to say screw it and told him that I will go. I ended up having a really good time with him and had fun socializing with all his friends. It was funny though because everyone kept on assuming that we were together and "J" and I just laughed about it and didn't correct anyone, it was kind of cute.

(J would be the boy I've been talking about just incase you didn't already figure that out...just wanted to clarify)

Another funny twist to this BBQ story is that J also came to meet his co-workers neighbors because they were getting rid of Chihuahua puppies and J was going to take one home. ("Oh great...this thing better not piss in my car...yeah I drove.") The people came with the dog and gave it to him. He is the cutest Chihuahua ever. Heres were it gets funny. Everyone there started looking at J and I telling us both how cute "OUR" dog was and that he is going to sleep so comfortably in between the two of us. Oh my god...at this point I could only laugh and go with it for sure. These drunk bitches think we're together and hey! We have a fucking Chihuahua now! Great! I looked in the sky while we were out on the patio smoking hoping a rescue helicopter would fly by and drop one of those latters down so my ass could climb the fuck out of doggy dodge.

To tell you the truth though, it was not that bad. I was a little nervous that’s all. Ultimately I'm glad I went and I had a good time. To speed this story up a little bit, pretty much after that night we've seen each other every single day. Things are moving along nicely I think. It's safe to say that we are "seeing" each other now but are not exclusive.

This past Friday we went on our first official date which did not include animal give always and really gay friends with big imaginations. In my opinion, it was the best date I ever had. This boy took me to see a play at the Old Town Theatre. It was a comedy/musical. It was so freakin funny I was laughing my ass off the whole time. I was so impressed by his creativity in choosing this to do on our date. It made me like him so much more. After the play we went to the Whaley House in Old Town which is a historical museum that is haunted. The house was build in or around 1856 and family members of the house were murdered inside and on the surrounding property. It was definitely a cool experience. We walked around Old Town some more after that and then took a drive over to Coronado, a small city in San Diego that is an island connected by a long blue bridge. It was so nice, we took a walk on the bay and sat and talked on a concrete wall that was right in front of the water. Across the bay was a breath taking view of all of downtown San Diego. This is how we saw it. It was awesome and romantic :) And did I mention he picked me a flower! How cute is that?!?!

Although there are still some uncertainties and curiosities, I am taking it slow and just enjoying life. We'll see where this goes and if it does how it goes. Thanks for letting me share this with you all. Wish me luck and check back for updates :)
