So there’s this girl who’ve Ive been acquaintances with for years. We’re familiar with each other because we both frequent the same watering hole. (happy hour after work)
When ever we see each other we always chat each other up. I knew even back then I was attracted to this girl. I just never did anything about it because well, I figured she was out of my ballpark.
I don’t normally intimidate easily but this woman’s looks alone were enough to make me feel like a sixth grader all over again. Then add to that she’s smart, funny and has a sucsessfull career; I’m a little embarrassed to admit; I was scared shitless.
I mean really, if I had to close m eyes and put together what the fundamentals of what my perfect woman is, THAT would be it.
So anyway, last Wed night I see her up at the bar. In which she drops a bombshell and tells me she’s been attracted to me for years, she’s just never had the courage to say anything!
I’m sure you can imagine my surprise.
We had our first date last night. I’ll spare you the details but let me just say it ended with a 10 - 15min make out session. Nice.
So what am I bitching about? Here’s the thing; I’ve been up since about 8 this morning and my thoughts have been about ONLY this girl. Seriously, I don’t think I’ve had five minutes to myself. It’s ANNOYING!!
Infatuation is gooooood! It’s early in the relationship, with an ideal woman who likes you back. You made out. So why on earth would you want to think about anything else?
This can come to no good. Dreams are always better than reality. Send me her number and I will inform her that you’ve decided a fantasy relationship is a beter option. I, however, have no fantasies about her and I need a date.
Congratulations!
Enjoy the ride. It is a truly amazing feeling, isn’t it?
What makes you so sure it is infatuation and not love? Just curious.
It’s been almost 4 months for me and mine, and I still feel that way. And I love it!
Anyway, welcome to the club! Yay! Don’t forget about Hot Monkey Love Day tomorrow…
Dude yeah- enjoy this feeling.
I miss having that sorta feeling ALL the time. Just enjoy it right now, and don’t overthink anything. Just enjoy the ride.
Because in the future, this is the feelings you’re going to look back on and smile about. Good or bad. These are the moments to smile to. You lucky bastich.
This is just my opinion of course but I feel we have a lot more to learn about each other before I could call it love. (despite being acquaintances for so long) Then there’s that stupid logical part of my brain that uderstands all about how chemical reactions work in the brain when you meet someone new. (stupid discovery chanel, theach’n me stuff)
I intend on calling her tomorrow. I didn’t do it today because I knew she had a busy schedule.
Thanks for the resposes so far guys.
I was going to post that before I read your story but now that I’ve read it, it’s doubly so. And you can send some of that this way.
You have a lot of restraint. The person you think is the perfect woman tells you that she’s been attracted to you for years on a Wednesday and you don’t have a date until Friday? Wow.
You’ll settled down again soon enough.
