It has now been about 9 months out from our break-up. That fateful day, I had showed up to his house earlier than we had discussed. I brought an empty bag to pack my things as I had felt so much coldness from him that I thought there was no way our relationship could continue. I kept trying to call him, but no pick-up, even as I was calling him from his front door. His roommate let me in. I proceeded to the basement to grab my snowboard, showing my dedication to the pending break-up. Still no sight of him. I headed upstairs and opened his bedroom door...only to find a GIRL IN HIS BED. No joke, these things apparently happen in real life, NOT JUST IN THE MOVIES. He tried to hide her and asked me to leave for a bit. I yanked the sheets and there she was. I think we were both in shock. I proceeded to pack up my stuff and he followed me out to my car, trying to explain himself. That was 9 months ago. According to Facebook, they are engaged now. What a story, huh? All of it is true...I felt my life is like a book.
Where am I now?
Well, I am still single. I tried the online dating thing on eharmony.com, which amounted to nothing but a few dates with a few oddball guys. In June, I met the hottest guy I had ever been with and we still keep in touch, but he is not what I am looking for. In September, I was maid of honor for one of my best friends. The best man happened to be single, and a surgeon in his last year of training. He's kind of good looking too and somehow he is interested in me! But here's the caveat - he lives in another state and has only come back to visit once. His family is here and he wants to come here to work. BUT he has only been back ONCE since the wedding. We spent 3 days together (or partial days, at night) while he was here. I understand he is busy with work/residency, but surely he could come back more often? So that's where I'm at.
In a week, I'm going SPEED DATING. Lets see how that goes...I am excited, but at the same time, afraid to be disappointed. I will update with the "results."
