A Puzzling Proposition: The Dilemma

So as I mentioned in part one there was a flip side to this and here it is. I’m going to give a rather quick summary of the other point in the “triangle” If you want more info I can fill you in personally.

Alright so here we go. So there is a guy I met, via Facebook… don’t judge I think it’s a perfectly acceptable social networking tool so stuff it you fuddy duddies! Anyway I met this gentleman (not using his name because I don’t know if he’d like it that I was chattering on about him. If you were smart you’ll be able to use Facebook and figure out who he is. So he’s from the east coast and is a Lance Corporal, I believe in the United States Marine Corps. Oh and did I mention he’s Chinese?! Now your heart can start beating normally again I’m not chasing an all American blue eyed boy. So, I’ve talked to him for just over a month now. We speak daily either via TXT or chat depending. It’s not anything too deep and sticky, I should say, just getting to know each other better, talking about our days and such. We seem to agree on a lot of things and just enjoy talking to each other. It’s nice to wake up and have a message from him. It really brightens my day. And we’ve been talking and he has a lot of leave and at the moment is planning a four-ish day trip to Colorado to meet me. The original pretense was to snowboard but it doesn’t look like he will be doing that at all. Now here’s the problem.

I just don’t know his intentions. My jumpy female mind says, “Oh he doesn’t want to get serious with you, surely he doesn’t, buut then again he’s traveling across the country to see you that probably isn’t just a transcontinental booty call.” And we haven’t actually broached the subject of what our goals in this “acquaintance-ship” are, and if it’s alright for me to mention I think I might want to give a relationship a go, but I just don’t know where he stands which is frustrating with this new twist.

And here’s the twist. So remember Mr. Nightclub guy from the previous post? Yeah, that guy. Well he obviously made his intentions very clear that he would like to see me again and not just for coffee and to chat about the latest issue of People magazine, he even professed to my friend, “I totally dig your friend” sort of thing, and with his prompt follow up I think he’s at least mildly serious. And so now what do I do? I mean Mr. Nightclub is a real dear heart, we hit it off immediately and he’s stable and not to mention closer then the east coast. But on that same note, I think I probably know Mr. Marine much better and longer, and he’s at least attempted to make some more seriously chivalrous gestures… And let’s be honest you can’t argue with that uniform. And so I’m torn because I don’t know where I stand with Mr. Marine and I don’t want to give Mr. Nightclub an immediate answer that I may regret and will deprive Mr. Marine of his chance to give his pitch. And I can’t say whether he will actually appear to see me, he’s so far away and let’s face it, people don’t always hold to their word even when we want them to. *sigh* I mostly just want to know what Mr. Marine is thinking, if it’s “Well let’s just be good friends” or “I want you to be the one I come back from deployment to.”
Now perhaps I’m just thinking too hard about this but, really it just worries the dickens out of me because things when a little topsy-turvy in one night and now I’ve got a bit of a mess to clean up and somehow manage not to hurt anyone including myself in the process.

So let me know what you are thinking, cause I could sure use some advice, and some logical and “tell it to me straight” right now.

And if you had a hard time following along… a flowchart.

A Puzzling Proposition: The Preamble

Well I suppose now is when I get to the down and dirty of things. Friday. What a night. The day couldn't have been any more boring but alas the night fullfilled its promise.

I met up with a friend from UNC and after having a leisurely dinner at Noodles & Company in FoCo we made our way to Denver. The Church Nightclub was our destination and we made it there with out any trouble which was nice.

Somehow no matter how much I try to stall and take my time we always make it to the club BEFORE things start heating up. Go figure.

So anyway. The night began rather uneventfully. My friend was a club virgin so I was more of in a mother bear mode but as she got comfortable it was time to start scouting the room and I did. If you know me at all, my eyes always take quick stock of a male asian head count quickly followed by the asian girlfriend count. Suprisingly it was rather slim pickings but it was funny to watch all the asian guys just bob their heads and watch the hired dancers... makes you wonder if you can compete no?

Anyway I'd had about enough of the techno floor, for some reason the DJs on Friday nights just aren't up to snuff and after a brief rest in the industry room it was time for the hip hop room.

It's actually probably my favorite room in the place, because I just love to feed ofthe intense energy it has. And the DJs was really good until like the last twenty minutes but whatever that's not the part you all want to hear about.

So anyway I'm just dancing with my friend and after fending off a creeper or two my friend decided to sit out for a bit, which was totally fine with me, I club pretty hard.

As soon as my friend was out of sight, BANG! Next thing I know I'm dancing with a well dressed Vietnamese man that missed my radar totally, like there's a small blank spot in my memory from where I saw him across the room and then when we were dancig so close you couldn't have shoved a piece of tissue paper between us. If you can call modern grinding/dry sex dancing... yeah I didn't think so either.

But that is beside the point, I suppose. His name was Ryan as I found out and he's from Littleton, so not too far away, and it was nice to have more then just a grind fest with a guy at a club, I mean the conversation wasn't heavy it was just comfortable light and mildy risque banter, you know "cake, and sleeping and endless outfit compliments." And when we made our way to the sushi bar for a rest, he pegged my personality perfectly while we just sat there me using his knees as a foot rest. I sooo need to stop wearing heels to clubs!

But after three hours of dancing and chatting, all good nights must come to an end. Granted a makeout session, a borrowed jacket and escorted walk to the car was nice icing on the cake. And despite how we exchanged numbers I didn't expect him to call, so wow what a suprise when I get out of the shower at 11am this morning I have a nice little "call me back" voicemail...and so now I'm off to call him back and figure out what to do with my life.... so actually you have to get the full drama scoop when I get my brain unscrambled....But trust me it's super juicy, there is a triangle involved! So stay tuned!

And what happened to my friend? Well I did a good job corrupting her that's for sure she had a wonderuful time and is soo addicted now.... oopies...

Adventure: Route 7

So today is Saturday, yep that's the day after Friday folks!

Friday in itself was a blast unfortunately it comes with a few puzzling things, that you can read at my LJ and that I may elaborate here on later tonight... maybe.

But Saturday! That's my point!

I went out with Danielle today and it was just a blast! It was a little cold but worth it. We explored the world that is Drake St. in Ft. Collins. Our first stop was an asian market, which I was a tad disappointed in but there is another on Magnolia that has promise as well. However we picked up some mango mochi icecream which we ate in 40 degree weather! GO COLORADO!!!

After that we tried Nepalese food for the first time! It reminded me a lot of indian food actually but it was absolutely delicious but sooo much to eat!! I had a chicken stew with naan bread... soo yummy and Danielle had dumplings.

And so that was today's adventure... now to begin blogging about Friday, and my various neurosis.

Initial Posting: Getting Started

Well I've buckled down and done this since many of my friends have a legit blog I figured it would be good for me to get a public blog as well. My Live Journal will still be the primary account because I can limit viewing if need be, but you will know here if you should go check out the LJ (which is friend's only but join LJ and I'll friend you so you can catch up on my life ne?)

So other then that not much to say right off the bat but here's hoping someone may find what I write of interest.

Ja mata!
