Melodrama

by

It’s weird. At times I feel like I’m reliving a situation I lived four years ago with my best guy friend at the time. I was head over heels for him. He admittedly liked me but was constantly on the fence. And once he’d get close to hopping over, he’d get drug back to the other side. It was a tug of war—and the worst kind. He would say one thing and do another. Actions speak louder than words… maybe he wasn’t ready. Maybe he just wasn’t that into me.

What’s weird is he kept making a comeback every year or so to stir up just enough drama in my life to drive me a little crazy for a week or five. “Apologizing� for the way he “acted� or asking me if I would’ve ever had given him a “real chance.�

Finally, last summer he chose *my* city –the one I’d dreamed of living in for years (and had at one point temporarily during school to do an internship) –why does he move there? To do an internship. (Copy cat.) He contacts me knowing full well I’m planning on spending the better half of my twenties living there and suggests “hanging out� if we’re both living there…

About Dating Outlook

What's not to like about dating? Plenty. The awkwardness, the drama and starting all over again (and again...) until we find that special someone. However, there are some pretty great things about dating and if nothing else, hopefully you meet some great people along the way. Stick around for some not so humble opinions, reflections and thoughts about the good, the bad and the downright ridiculous woes of dating.
