Haven't heard from him yet, so I'm assuming things are on with his friend. But that's ok. I've got cleaning, etc to do and could use another early to bed night (slight sinus infection).

HE'S COMING OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He says he'll only stay a couple of hours because he still needs to write a letter of rec for one of his students (he teaches HS).

Yes, I'm a mature adult...........

Not sure if this should be on the happy things thread, or if I should start a "God help me/Boy drama of the week" thread, but I'm too lazy to start my own thread...

Ok, so my ex from like 3 years ago, who I was very very in love with and very happy with has recently been on my mind SO MUCH lately... Background: I broke up with him because he basically had a plan for us; when and where we'd get married, where we would live, how many kids we'd have, what kind of cars we'd drive, what color our house would be, etc. At the time, that freaked me out and I couldn't handle something so serious. We had some issues, tried getting back together, but it didn't work. We were on a talking basis about every month or so and went to dinner once, then I learned he had a g/f and she was moving in with him. So I didn't want to interfere, even as a friend.

Well, this guy has been on my mind CONSTANTLY for like 2-3 weeks now. I wanted to call him, but didn't have the guts and was so afraid of stepping on the g/f's toes, so I didn't. He called me tonight... I nearly flipped out! So we talk for a long time, he's broken up with the girl, she's moving out and up north, he's still in love with me (he tells me). We talk a lot longer, I keep seeing all these awesome things I would overlook when we broke up... and we made plans to go out this weekend, and if they go well, we're going to Disneyland in 3 weeks.

So now I'm tripping out! Is it stupid for me to even think about getting back together with an ex? He was a great guy, had some minor issues, but he's grown up a lot, as have I, and I think we always had something that was just incredible... What should I do?!!

Carol, that's totally not stupid - I remember you talking about this boy a little another time and you seem totally into him. Give it a shot.

And meanwhile, there was this boy I had a huge crush on our senior year of high school. Well, turns out he had an internet girlfriend from Canada (I know!

) so that went nowhere, and I dated the guy who cheated on me but I kept dating him anyway until we left for college. Two days later, I was pretty much together with GPBoy. Now internet girlfriend boy just waltzed back into my life because a mutual friend told me his girlfriend just cheated on him, so I sent him an email saying I know how much it sucks and if he ever wants to talk to let me know...and he wants to see me this weekend over fall break. Disturbing.

Carol, not bad at all to get back together with him. I'd be freaked out too if someone had my life planned out that much for me. Go out with him and see what happens. Once you see him in person, he may or may not be what you're wanting now.

Oh, yay! Happy thing!

I got pinned tonight.

My initation is November 17th!

SmartBlondeGPhB · #8 10-20-2003, 11:18 PM

What an awesome day for initiation!

(yes, that's my birthday.....)

LOL

SmartBlondeGPhB · #9 10-20-2003, 11:18 PM

But, congratulations...........

You guys are awesome... thanks for the support. I'm excited about going out with him on Friday. I do miss him, the more I think about it and the more I talk about it with people that know how we were together. Now i have one other issue...

My best friend, who I told this whole situation to, thinks that if Matthew and I are going to start being more honest and serious with each other (just in case), that I need to open up NOW as to something I kept from him. When we were together, he bought a really pretty sapphire ring for me for Christmas. I kept it after we broke up, but told him I sold it (because he said why should I keep it, etc). Honestly, I wear the ring all the time (and I don't think it matters that I wear it on my left hand ring finger; that's not an important finger till it's a fat diamond set in platinum in my opinion

) So should I tell him that I still have it, or should I wear it on Friday and just let him see or what? I know this may seem trivial, but it's important to me, and I don't want him to get the wrong idea about it, you know?

I love you guys by the way.

I think you should wear it and let him see it - I think it would mean a lot to him that you still have it.

My thoughts exactly, but on the RIGHT hand..........

SmartBlondeGPhB · #13 10-22-2003, 01:04 AM

BTW: I have a date with a different guy on Friday. I am seriously liking being single right now...........

GeekyPenguin · #14 10-22-2003, 01:18 AM

Melanie, I am glad to know you are making up for my lack of males! I have a date with my mom to go shopping on Friday if that counts for anything.

And here's some Gamma Phi happy news - my sisters voted me guest of honor at banquet, which I wasn't going to go back for, but how can I turn that down? I'm actually somewhat excited for it because it'll be fun to see everyone again (although it is just a week after initiation). I think I'm taking one of the SigEp's biological little brothers - I just told my Gamma Phi little to find me an acceptable date.

SmartBlondeGPhB · #15 10-22-2003, 01:25 AM

It's usually feast or famine with me............

It just happens to be feast right now.

And yes, it counts. Especially if mom is buying.............
