I went out with this guy once who ended up blocking me from his phone. He was very tall and good looking and ended up saying he didn’t know how to block people from his phone so it was weird that I was blocked. I just said whatev and let it go because the distance was too far anyway but he was a nice guy basically (aside from blocking me). Anyway, we’ve remained the closest of FB friends. Or at least we’re Facebook friends. Which means we acknowledge each other to some degree. This is a guy who went through a nasty divorce and he said it would be hard for him to get married again. He moved to NW Arkansas in June and had a world wind romance and next thing I know, his Facebook status is Married. I’m happy for him and terribly jealous that I myself have not had a world wind romance that resulted in a manic-induced marriage to someone I barely knew. I mean, it sounds like something that would happen to me but hasn’t. Yet. I have hope, dear readers.
The Boy and I are officially just friends now. Platonic friends. Which I think means we will never see each other again. Truthfully, I’m okay with it.
I don’t know why I feel optimistic but dammit, I feel sure I’m going to find me a good man and be in a happy relationship soon.

OMG that so could have been you!!!!! I could have read a poem at your wedding and also lit your hair on fire accidentally with a candle.
Can I at least do one of those two things soon?

If you do have whirlwind love affair and get married…might I suggest that Bryan not be allowed to play with the matches.

Well it all sounds good but ya know, If you’re gonna marry someone you barely know, wouldn’t it be more fun if he was an axe murderer? Think of the drama, and if you live, the book, movie and riches of Solomon..
Is that shallow?

Your work cuts in alot of ways and I’d like to mention that I’m available. Also I’d like to think of us as friends by the proxy of mutual respect and admiration of the words we have written. All the best to you, because you truly deserve it. Don’t worry about the FB guy. “Que serra, serra”.
