dinner at MrTouche's

He's a catch. And I'm not into him. Why, oh why? he's so lovely. He cooked me dinner on Wednesday. We started with champagne, then baked salmon, too perfect. We talked about lots of things, but am I stupid to think that because we are both the same star sign, Gemini, and talking is one of our traits, that we are just being mad-talking-gemini's? it's all easy company, but too familiar.

or my other theory, that I'm only interested in guys who are not interested in me?

Here's a man who's 'light' is on (men are like vacant cabs, you have to find one with his light on) He wants to settle, he's ready to find a partner & be super-responsible. He's flicked off girls before when he was focused on his business, not ready to settle, and so puts on the cold face & appears disinterested. Now, I know this because I got an email this week from him... he said he was trying not to be distant or cold. Now I have to deal with the puppy face. All eager to be interested.

I can't take it. I feel I don't deserve this attention & I'm not that attracted to him. I like him, but I really want more time to know him before feeling anything. See, I don't trust the lust. The early feeling that puts you on a brain high. It sends you mental. I can't focus on anything, daydream all the time & then it all finishes & I have to sweep my feelings up again & find some hobby (like cooking muffins) to re-wire myself on.

So I'm trying someone I don't feel intensely for. Someone who is ready to be 'a proper boyfriend' & I hope to grow into him. Or maybe I'm completely fooling myself. Argh! I dont' know. Over it, stop thinking & just respond to someone who is being nice to you for once!

seeing him on sunday...

You're over thinking this... why not just sit back, relax and enjoy it?

Maybe you should take a good long look at yourself, and try and work out why someone who is "hot" and 39, is still single? Maybe it has nothing to do with the men that are available, but you!!! Maybe you have some kind of hang up or lack of emotional attachment, that you can't seem to have relationships.

could be true anonymous. I'm trying to be as honest and truthful as I can be on this blog,


are you in australia? 'cos when the tv show airs (ABC'S Catalyst, Thursday nights) then you can see what I look like, sound like etc. It'll all be there in glorious sound & vision!

Well, we all have issues. I like that you write so openly here.
I have a hard time trusting lust too. I like it though. It adds to the experience, but then again, it can cause it to fade into nothing...
I think you're going about it correctly.
Get to know him, his personality might end up turning you on more than his looks...
