I leave to pick her up in about 10 minutes. I'm oozing exuberance.
[edit] Well, scratch that. I remain single for the time being. She played the "co-workers" card, despite us not even being technically co-workers. =)

Xooxer

w00t! Good luck, JT! I hope you both have a wonderful time.
|
Be back by 11:00!
| |
Don't forget to use a rubber.
| |
Good luck Jeremy!
| |
Well, all for naught, it seems. Ah well.
| |
Aww, poor JT.
| |
As I've said to just about everyone who has at least two degrees of separation from her, "I'm pissed, but it'll pass. She should've said no in the first place." ;-)

=(

Yeah. Two hours later, I'm still of the same opinion: she really should've said no in the first place. Leading me on like that was very uncool: if she were to say something like "well, um... we can talk about it later, OK?", I'd've gotten the hint and not stressed over it more than I had to. I'd've even made the offer to quit, if it made her feel better.
Instead, she said yes and I had my hopes up, then she told me no after I drove to pick her up. I suspected that she wasn't totally into the idea of dating me even if we weren't co-workers, as well. Not surprisingly, I'm no longer tempted to quit my job for her. ;-) Incidentally, my friends think that someone else must've convinced her to say no. One of them mentioned that she probably did like me. Personally, I don't think that matters: she should speak for herself. Repeating others' opinions just says it's not worth the effort. Who would I be dating? Her, or her friends? | |
Sorry to hear the unfortune, sir. You're right: if she can't speak for herself, then she has some growing up to do, methinks.
Especially as an adult, jeepers. It saddens me that this has happened after reading stories of her from your blog, but I guess it's probably for the best, anyway. On an unrelated note, I was in Vancouver for the entirety of last week! I was looking around in case I, by incredible chance, ran into you, but I didn't. At least, I don't think so... it's busy down there. I'm planning on moving up this fall after graduation to go to BCIT for some audio engineering. Perhaps we could nerd out in vicinity of each other some day. :O [edit: On a related note, I have gone through a similar situation within the last few weeks. A month ago (or so), I watched The OC with my male friend and two female friends. One of the female friends, who I will name "Jenna," has liked me for quite a while and I've always kind of liked her, but I've never acted on it because I'm friends with her older brother. While we were watching The OC, "Sam" (the other girl) would hint at me to get closer to Jenna, so I did. We watched The OC and then Sam and "Mark" left, leaving Jenna and I to sit on the couch and talk well into the night. I found myself slowly beginning to like her more and more. About a week later, I asked Jenna if she wanted to watch a movie together (House on Haunted Hill... ugh, horrible movie) and we did. After the movie was over, I told her how I felt, and was met with incredible awkwardness. Hah! Turns out, she had been hanging out with another guy and had begun to like him. She is naturally a very shy person, so she was especially quiet from then on in. I even had to drive her home afterwards. ugh, Tezz, you fool! That reminds me... I've gotta take House on Haunted Hill back :| Take care, Jt.] | |
I'll take out the other guy for your social security and credit card number... and your soul...
| |
Oh well, "more fish in the sea" and all that crap...lol
| |
I have two more fish in the sea that I'm interested in at the moment (one is a girl-next-door who is quite clearly also interested in me, the other is a hot-tamale that I'm not so sure about), and neither are co-workers. We'll see how that goes.
| |
Good luck with the "girl next door" move into her basement, and take advantage of the situation until she kicks you out for not pleasuring her enough. ;)
And Bring back Slurpy, please. :'( | |
I have so many projects that many of them are cruft. Slurpy sort of falls under that definition: I liked the game, but it didn't have a totally unique identity. It was mostly just a kitbash of multiple different puzzle games (notably Laserstrike and Chip's Challenge).
| |
Incidentally, she no longer appears on the schedule at work (I wasn't looking for her name, but the absence of something can be just as conspicuous as something appearing =P).
I'm not quite sure what to make of the disappearing name, though I'm going to assume for safety's/sanity's sake that A) it had nothing to do with me, and B) she definitely wasn't interested if she didn't let me know. ;-) Besides, there are other people out there. =) | |
