Pseudo Watch: Day ????

So several people have asked me about whether or not this pseudo-dating extraordinaire has actually asked me out on a date. Nova, people. HOWEVER, he has graduated to calling me for no reason other than just to chat. This week, he called me two days in a row. aMAZing!!

I used to knock PD (and am still not a crazy fan of it by any means), but I have to admit - I kind of like this. I mean, who cares, right? I can actually get to know this guy on my own time, without rushing into the "let's go out to dinner and do potentially embarrassing things, like chewing" and stuff. Several of my girlfriends are like, "don't let this guy do this kind of stuff - he needs to ask you OUT!" Ok, so I agree, AT SOME POINT, yes, soon I would hope that this guy would actually like to go do something that involved sitting across the table from eachother. But for now, it's all fun. I'm so not a big fan of girl games......you know - don't call him at such and such time, don't do this or he'll think this, reading into every little thing. It's exhausting - yet at the same time tempting, as always.

I truly believe that most girls really WANT to believe that the guy that maybe diggin their chili really knows what the heck is going on. It can get really pathetic sometimes.....we expect guys (or anyone for that matter) to be totally intuitive about dating as we need them and want them to be. Honestly, I think that when this guy wants to have dinner, he actually thinks in his mind, "Me Hungry, Me Eat" - not because he's not intelligent, but because life is just not that complicated....he wants to talk - he calls me. He wants to hang out - he asks.

What else can I ask for? I mean, do I really want all of the complexities, or do I just think I do, because that's how dating is supposed to be, right?? If only my whole life could be that simple! Yet, we long for the massive complications of dating. The dire straights that we get into when we are dying to know what the deal is. I was given a book once from a good friend that talks about how so many people associate "LOVE" with a feeling of longing. If we don't have it and we want it, we LONG for it and we think this is love. We're in love with the mystery of the unknown, not the real thing: the character and soul of another person. Huh?

I hate to be a party pooper, but Jane and Bingley didn't love eachother - they had massive, intense, crank-calling at slumber parties crushes on eachother. They probably talked for a total of 30 minutes before Bingley finally bucked up and proposed. Wow! That's so romantic!! The unknown sure is sexy! Or is it..........to be honest, I'd rather just hang out with my best friend someday - permanently. Does that make sense? This PD thing ain't so bad.....I think.

PS He's got one month. :P And NO, this guy does not have my blog address.......and no, I would never overtly blog about someone who DOES has my blog address. :P
