 ugh.
I know it's stupid....and I should just move on...

But there's this guy I see a lot (he works at a store I frequently visit).

He's so good looking. He has that cute, nerdy thing going (like the guy in the Verizon commercial).

Well....a little while back I took a chance and gave him my number.
...and he never called.

Then one day I saw him at work and....oops. There was a ring on that all important finger. I still feel so dumb about it (even though I obviously did NOT know he was married. I would never ask out a married man). This was just a guy that I thought was really good looking and seemed nice, so I wanted to get to know him better. Blah. (Hey, at least now I can tell myself that's the reason he didn't call....instead of it being that he was married AND thought I was unattractive or fat or something).

But every time I see him I can't help but think 'damnit....I really wish I had met you sooner.'

my problem is that since I don't have a guy in my life, I waste time being sad over an unattainable guy like this one. It sucks.

Ha!:P Talk about bookends:P...well, sort of. I mean, you are braving the frontlines far more than I ever will. But, anyway. I had a similar experience...or two. I was posing as James Bond(not literally:P) on my first(and only so far) trip out of the country. I found myself in a few situations where women were available/alone. I thought opportunity was knocking and had an unusually strong sense of daring. So, I shyly--and I mean SHY--walked up and mumbled something to take a seat with each of them. Let's run down the list:P Roll that beautiful bean footage!

First one, she looked a bit like Helen of Troy sitting alone at her dinner table across the way. In less than 10 minutes of convo, she revealed she had a BF back home. Oooh.

Ashore in France, I saw a few beauties and one said "Bon Jour" to me in a gentle, lovely voice as she sauntered past me to a lookout point, but I had no French cheat sheets with me and was completely paralyzed:P

Next, a young woman working on homework?! Turned out she wasn't as young as I thought and told me she was waiting for her husband(which then I noticed the ring--doh!).

One night, I saw a beautiful brown/raven haired woman on deck in a red dress(yes, it was a cruise:P). She looked at me and I at her. I just stood there shifting glances. Suddenly, she walked off around the backside. I hesitated a while before deciding to carpe diem. Never found her as I chased around the decks. I could write a story about that one though:P

Then, there was a girl from Spain with her parents who sat with ME one day. I was really trying to impress but failed with my Spanish. I think she had a BF with her--the guy who walked by and kissed her on the cheek? But, I never found out. I left her an email address(as I didn't think the phone idea would work overseas). I was rather nervous and mistook her name at first. Never heard from her when I got back home:(

Then there was a married older woman who seemed to have some chemistry with me--felt a vibe. But, I wasn't about to mess with that and she and I clashed a few times over negativity:P

Then there was a tour guide I found exceptionally appealing(there was another the first excursion who was attractive but clearly preggers and married:P)--and I thought it was cool how I figured out she was not a local--who I warmed up to slowly...thought I was doing okay...but then she hooked up with some other guides. And, suddenly I felt like discarded rice pudding. I almost asked her to meet me for dinner later...blew that. But, I did give her my email as well...no response.

Then there was an Aussie girl who was rather stunning and nicely taller than the others:P I didn't get much out of her, and she seemed fixated with the young buff guy working the Rock Wall. So, even though I waited around for her--not making any daring ploy--it seemed futile.

Lastly, I even became friendly with a cook who made me special pasta dishes during my stay. She seemed nice and okay with me. I even honored her by drawing her picture which she liked--but I wouldn't give it up to her right away. When I later tried to get her photo and give her my drawing, she turned up sick:( I left the picture and my email with some other cooks who were all excited to see the drawing. I cant be certain she got any of that from those guys...and I never got a response from her either:(

Wow, I didn't plan on sharing all that, but I did:P >bites lip<
