When do men who are boys grow up in to men?
It makes me laugh. The saying that you always want what you can't have, rings true. Or maybe it's not that you want what you can't have (because although I think I'm a hoot to be around, don't think I'm God's gift to the world). Anyway last night, when I was hanging with Cousin Fran (you remember her...*sings* Matchmaker, matchmaker make me a match....), I find out the scoop on 'Contender 1' and how he feels about my meeting 'Contender 2'. Unbeknownst to me, Cousin Fran was reveling in my meeting someone the night of the Blind Date.
As we hung out last night, the topic of 'Contender 1's' cousin came up, and she told me that she informed him that she felt it was fate that I had gone on the date with 'Contender 1'. When asked why she felt that way, as it did not pan out between 'Contender 1' and myself, she proceeded to tell the other matchmaker that I had met someone the same night, and was hanging out with him. Matchmaker #2 (as we'll call him) was equally shocked and happy that I met someone so quickly. Fran explained to him that after the wrapup of the date with 'Contender 1' I decided to go back in to the place and see if I could strike up conversation, which led to 'Contender 2'. So matchmaker #2 again was happy for me, and even admitted that 'Contender 1' was a bit out there, and even he could not decipher or explain the 'We'll be in touch comment' (yes gang...I'm still perplexed over that one.)
Well several days later, 'Contender 1's' matchmaking cousin decided to pay a visit to Cousin Fran. Turns out that he clued 'Contender 1' in that I had met someone else and that it turned out I met him that night during one of 'Contender 1' several bathroom (and need we say extended) breaks. Well! 'Contender 1', and can I interject possibly *bitter*, gets bent out of shape. He proceeds to bellyache to his cousin that it was 'fucked up that not only that I went back in after he left, but that I met someone that same night.' So he gets his cousin/matchmaker #2 riled up that I was wrong and evil, etc. and then sigged him on my couin. Da-da-da-da! Cousin Fran quickly puts the other matchmaker straight, explaining that I did not flirt on the date with 'Contender 2' nor did I need to be in a holding pattern to talk to another guy while waiting for 'Contender 1' to finally decide he wasn't in to me. She then proceeds to explain that I was polite, and gave his cousin the opportunity he deserved to make a second date. Then she asks her fellow matchmaker if he thought I was wrong to move on as quickly to 'Contender 2' being that I did not 'color outside the lines' while technically on the date with 'Contender 1'.
And do you KNOW what 'Contender 1' cousin said? He, a MAN, a man from the other camp mind you...agreed that I had done nothing wrong. So you know what 'Contender 1'...I won't slam you. I'm too mature for that. I will wish you luck, and say a prayer for you. Because now I know you just are a fish lost in a sea of indecission. You will always be that guy who thinks the grass looks greener on the other side. What, now that you know I have other options...I'm appealing to you? You will never have this *points to myself*. And although I too am on a quest for finding 'Mr. Dateable', 'Mr. Right'...know that I am ok. I did nothing wrong, and the satisfaction I get from this whole expierence? Now you know it too.
