Teacher's Pet Posted March 25, 2007 Posted March 25, 2007 Today I won my 2nd local Texas Hold 'Em tournament in the last 5 weeks. I'm still one of the "new kids on the block" in the local league, but I've made my presence known! I'm about a few rankings points short of making the state league finals (winner goes to the WSOP), so I'm making a run for it... Meanwhile..... I can't get this dating thing straight..... I am currently pursuing/being pursued by (it's kinda mutual) a really cute, younger woman. Educated, attractive, funny, very sexual. The problem is, between the two of us, I don't think there's been a day in the last month when the 2 of us have been healthy at the same time. I've had the worst cold/flu/something since almost New Year's (ask Ariawoman, she's heard me hack to death already), but this girl....she's a cancer survivor, and has had a relapse. The doctors say it doesn't look bad, though, since she's been treated already, and the relapse was caught VERY quickly, but she's been in and out of the hospital a lot the last couple of weeks. My problem is, we've made plans almost every weekend since we've known each other, and still haven't had our first official date..... I have no reason to believe she's making this stuff up (you know, out of being scared or whatever) since her webpage even hints at a history of illness. My dilemma is that a friend of mine (female) has been trying to set me up with one of her friends. I've met her friend before, and she's very nice. My friend called me up this morning to tell me that her friend had a VERY bad week and they were going to hit a club tonight to hang out and relax, and her friend asked her to invite me. Apparently, the ONE time I met her friend, she really liked me, but we didn't exchange #'s or anything. Now I'm about to go out tonight to be with them (probably 3-4 girls, maybe 1 other guy), and now I'm going to be out with a seemingly depressed girl who happens to "want" me. Now, I'm a regular guy. If I know a girl wants me, hell, I'm there! But what do I do when my heart is torn? I am in no way, shape, or form in a relationship with anyone right now, but I've invested a lot of time in the first girl, yet don't know where things stand (also, I haven't heard from her in 4 days, so that's making me wonder), and now I have a chance to spend time with someone who I KNOW is interested in me, yet.... ugh... What the hell do I do? -tp it's not ALWAYS good to be the king.
polywog Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 I dunno, tp... to me it sounds like you are being brought into the picture to cheer up a depressed girl who likes you, in a court jester-ish kind of way. Why not go out, see where it leads, have fun (if one can have fun with a depressed girl) but don't rush in where angels fear to tread. Just check it out. I'm sorry about the other (not depressed but ill) girl's problems, and it must be a little scary that you haven't heard from her in 4 days Hope she's OK. Congrats on the Texas Hold'em, by the way

Author Teacher's Pet Posted March 26, 2007 Author Posted March 26, 2007 The evening went well. We all met up at a club for karaoke (me, my friend, her new boyfriend, and her friend that likes me lol) We had a good time, I sang a couple of songs, we had a few laughs, and just like the last time, my friend said "Hey, mind giving M a ride home?"...including the "wink wink nudge nudge ya know what I mean?" part. I drove her home.... Wink Wink, Nudge Nudge, You Know What I Mean? lol NO...nothing happened, but she did "make a move" on me. I was cracking bad jokes (as always), and when we got back to her place, she asked me out. I played it safe and said "Sure, I'd love to HANG OUT WITH YOU sometime..." I just didn't want to think it was a date, because I don't know if that's what I want right now, especially with all the confusion going on in my head.....she then moved in for a kiss (on the mouth), and I "played it down" to a friendly peck on the lips..... I really should just stick to poker and jerking off. -tp gives a new meaning to "pocket pair"

bridget_jones Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Have you actually met the first girl in person? Also, the second girl had 1 bad freaking week. Ok I admit I don't want to date someone, either, who is a big downer all the time, but don't diagnose her as "depressed" when her friend just said she had a bad week. Just go if you want to the club, the best that can happen is you meet the love of your life. The worst is you have fun in a club. You're not obligated to the first gal yet. For all you know she's out with other guys, too. It doesn't have to be complicated. Sorry I was writing this as you were posting an update to the date. I agree with AM, you're just not that into the 2nd girl anyway so problem is solved right?
Author Teacher's Pet Posted March 26, 2007 Author Posted March 26, 2007 she obviously wasn't that attractive then... She actually is a pretty girl...but I don't like the whole "dating a friend of a friend" thing...kinda awkward... if stuff goes bad, I wouldn't want to lose a friendship....... I play those things VERY carefully...... -tp cuz that's what friends are for

I agree with AM, you're just not that into the 2nd girl anyway so problem is solved right? I only "diagnosed" her as depressed because her best friend of 15 years called me and told me so. I met the girl one time, so I don't know her well at all, but she grew up with my friend, so I'll accept her "diagnosis". Anyhow, she seemed in good spirits tonight, so I guess she just needed a night out to clear her head.... -tp ....and a little time with God's gift! *chuckle*

bridget_jones Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 Fair enough. at least you're getting out there and having fun.
Author Teacher's Pet Posted March 26, 2007 Author Posted March 26, 2007 if people hadn't dated friends of friends then the human race as we know it would have died out a long time ago lol... I just can't do it. My friend J is too cool to lose over a bad breakup....especially with her BEST friend.....she's a good drinking buddy, and her new boyfriend is a trip, I must admit. He brings some love to her life, and a LOT of drama, too. Being J's best male friend, I have a feeling my phone will be ringing a LOT over the next few weeks! Tonight, her new boyfriend's ex was at the bar. Oh, the fur that almost flew.... hot! -tp drama king
bridget_jones Posted March 26, 2007 Posted March 26, 2007 If J's becoming that big of a drama queen that early on in the relationship, this dude won't be around for long.
Author Teacher's Pet Posted March 26, 2007 Author Posted March 26, 2007 If J's becoming that big of a drama queen that early on in the relationship, this dude won't be around for long. Nope..it's her new bf that has the stalking ex. lol He pointed her out to me. Very nasty girl, didn't seem very "fun" or likeable. She kept trying to stare down J at the bar. I so wanted to see a cat fight, but I don't know if J would have won, she's a lot smaller than the other chick. -tp let's get ready to...watch chicks slap each other and maybe a ti**y will pop out!!!!!!
