I want to put this in here, because the last couple of weeks my Thursday Theories have been quiet serious, with good reason. Let’s have a bit of a giggle instead!
Before I met my current partner, I was pretty much always perpetually single. I had long term relationships, but in my life I’ve only had 2 serious relationships. One was VERY long distance and the other, well I might as well have been single. Over all I’ve dated only 4 guys in my life, including my current partner. Between in relationships, I was probably single for at least a year or two inbetween.
So I spent a bit of being single, and I am relatively attractive, if I do say so myself.
However, what I want to write about…There was a guy, that one of the last time’s I spoke too him and he said, and I quote “We are going to end up having sleeping together”.
It was SUCH an awkward moment, like I kept trying to remind myself of a time where I “encouraged” him. As a human being, he was perfectly fine, well … not really … if I’m honest … For someone who was very into heavy metal, he was very judgmental. By that I mean, all the people I know into heavy metal, are quiet assured of themselves people. They’re great! Not one single sexual thought about him, lol
What happened to him? A couple of months later he unfriended me, lol
We had been friends for a while, and so I was highly disappointed in him. This has sort of happened a few times too me. Because I am one of those people who, when I have a crush, you know. So I’ve been asked out on a few dates and not realised it was a date.
Like this one guy, I was just talking about how I hadn’t been Museum for ages and he said, he hadn’t either. So we agreed to go one time, we did and I realised as he walked up too me that he thought it was a date. When he realised that I realised he thought it was a date, it got very awkward.
After that, he unfriended me too. But I started to notice that he was adding me whenever he had a girlfriend. Then when they inevitably broke up, he’d unfriend me again. At first I thought he was embarrassed, but I started to realise this was a “thing” of his.
Then there was one that ended up being a setup. Like people, do NOT do that if you like either person. I got left alone with someone I was not attracted too again, and not reasonable way to get out of it. I was left alone with a drunk angry “little” man. Who literally slammed his glass on the table when I didn’t want to continue the night.
I always tended to have long term relationships, finding the alternative to be emotionally unfulfilling. That said, I made a classic mistake with my first marriage, which became a 20-year train wreck. I stubbornly held on long after I should have let go. The second marriage started after age 50 and has worked extremely well. With all that, I think the happiest people are those who are content to be by themselves, who aren’t compelled by social “shoulds”. Find your art or craft or happy space, and if someone who shares your values turns up, great. If not, it’s still good.
