The ups and downs of being single in your 30's...early 30's that is. |
After such a frustrating day, last night I talked Mark into having a few drinks at home. After our first drink was gone I brought up the idea of inviting someone over to play games...much more fun than watching TV since it was storming so we couldn't sit outside. We pondered for a few and I gave the suggestion to call Dominic, which I found out he had talked to for 1 hour the night before. He himed & hawed for a bit, but then called him and he agreed to come over. Took him a little while to get there, but when he did we all chatted for a few. My phone rang so I went to the other room to answer it and talk. My friend was in a very chatty mood so as she rambled on I overhead Mark and Dominic in the back room chatting quietly. Not sure how it started but I heard Mark say "you need to just relax, you are trying too hard to impress her...just play games and have fun." I was laughing. See, Dominic and I were having a good conversation about him being in the military and about what he does for a living...things Mark still did not know. What is it with guys, are they that scared to ask questions or truly care that little about getting to know someone?? While Mark was going outside for one of his cig. breaks he made a comment about being real in the context of being honest about himself. Dominic and I laughed to ourselves and when he was finally outside Dominic commented that he does not understand why he just doesn't say something to me. Apparently Dominic told Mark that I know and Mark said he knew I knew, but he still wasn't going to say anything. WHAT??? That makes absolutely no sense to me at all!! Around 2:00 a.m. Dominic decided he needed to go, which Mark tried to get him to stay, but he refused. Mark walked him to his car and 1 hour later came back in the house. So he won't say anything to me, but he sure isn't trying to hide it very well either. It makes me so confused!!!! |
