2003-07-25 ~ 4:13 p.m. ~ What's going to happen next?
I have some time here in the office today, well, not really. I just came back from a meeting and had to write minutes and make arrangements, but it has been a really rare chance that I get to sit down and write this week at work. Date on Wednesday was good. So much better than the other date a few weeks ago. I really enjoyed myself and hm..let’s call him Bloke. I think Bloke enjoyed it too. We both left with smiling faces (at least that was when we said goodbye) and I am hoping it is enough to warrant another date. I think it should, but probably in another couple weeks. We made arrangements earlier this week, and Bloke usually sends me a few text messages a night, to say hello, blah blah blah. But Tuesday (before the date), I didn’t hear from him, and so I assume date was on. When I met him, he told me he lost his phone the night before and wasn’t sure if I was going to turn up. I told him the same thing that I wasn’t sure if he was turning up too, but was trying my luck. So it seems both of us sticked to our schedules. We talked a lot, about many things, himself, expectations, what he was looking for etc. We also talked about how we felt about people here, etc. I think we had a very interesting and abstract talk towards the end. He was telling me about how he thinks he is like a dolphin in the ocean. The ocean is the society, the fishes are people around us. He needs to be out of the sea at times, but he still belongs to the ocean. I told him I was a seaweed. The schools of fish just swim past me, but I am still where I am, quiet, unnoticed, doing my part for the eco-system. I acknowledge the existence of fishes and things around in the ocean, but I don’t necessarily agree with them. I have my roles and duties. I’m glad I met him. He told me in the face and in chat that he was glad to meet me too. He said I was very unique, emotionally intelligent and am a very empathetic listener. He is honest to tell me he’s seeing 3 other ladies at the moment, and it’s a little like information overload for him. I understand. I have good vibes about him, but I think we should see what happens next. The anticipation and the volatility of this whole thing is what makes me excited and happy. I know anything might happen, we may probably only end up as friends, we may probably be even more, I’m just embracing the moment and what each step would take me to. As a friend told me, enjoy the process. I am just going to do that. I know a few friends are rooting in for me. They are genuinely happy about my progress, I have a lot to thank them.
