Maybe I'M Getting Phased Out
Or maybe I need to stop drinking on weeknights while PMSing.
For the last 2 weeks I feel like my dating experience with EP has taken on a strange dynamic. Here's why:
1) In between moments of smooching, I decided to tell him that in Summer 2005 I was treated for a VERY common STD (not to divulge all the medical details of my life...but it's the one that more than 50% of women get treated for once by the time they're 35 years old and can increase one's chances of getting cervical cancer). Basically, he's freaked out now and assures me that "Even though it's an issue now, it may not be one forever...I'd just like to talk to my doctor first." In other words, no action until his doctor ameliorates his anxiety related to my diagnosis almost 2 years ago. Certainly a valid concern but upon closer examination of the statistics and both of our histories, he's probably already carrying it -- but of course, there's no test for this condition in men. Go figure.
2) He's still checking his online dating account. (Which after further discussion, I have been advised to stop checking to see if he's checking, because it's just toxic to my mental state)
On the other hand though -- he's done some great things that certainly set him apart from others.
1) Bought a box of green tea bags just for me to keep at his house. And he actually got up before me on Sunday morning to make me a cup of tea so it'd be ready for me when I got up to go to church.
2) Also had a bag of Hint of Lime Tostitos and Milano cookies ready for me to enjoy while we watched the NFL playoff games over the weekend.
3) Got me my own toothbrush for his house and checks to make sure the bathroom is clean enough for me before I go in to use it.
4) I just smile when I think about him and he gives great hugs.
And the tornadoes continue...
Seattle crush emailed me. He's considering coming out here for my birthday extravaganza in a few months. I highly doubt this will come to fruition so I'm not worried. But it was still enough to kind of throw me off in my head.
Enough already.
