HopePhil Posted August 26, 2008 Posted August 26, 2008 Soda and Jerky time.... About 2 weeks ago was my nephew's first birthday party. My sister invited my ex to come. I was already going, but did not mention it to my ex. She called me and asked if I was going and if I was, if she could ride with me. She did. When we got there, my sister's boyfriend was there and both of his sisters. My sister has tried to set me up with both of his sisters (one is 19 and the other is 23... My sister says they attract crappy guys, so wanted a nice guy like myself to go out with them). I have talked to them and both of them liked me and wanted to go out with me (especially the 23 year old), but I did not do anything with them because if things went sour, i did not want problems for my sister. My ex went into the kids room with my son and the 2 sisters were in their with their children. Not soon after she went in there, the 2 sisters left the room with their kids. My ex was confused, but I later told her that both of the sisters were attracted to me and wanted to 'date' me. When i told her this, her eyes lit up and she made such a big deal about it. I still talk to the 23 year old, but only as friends. I am not interested in her at all. I actually set her up with one of my friends, but when she texts me, my ex asks if its my 'lover' contacting me. The party was very good and I got some quality family time, which was very good because my grandfather died 2 days later. We were not expecting it. My ex went with me to the viewing. I had a hard time and did not talk to her much while she was with me. The funeral was the next day. The morning of the funeral, a large tree fell on the power lines at my parents house, so they had no power the morning of (this has relevance. its coming...) The funeral was hard for me. I had never been to one before and I am 31 years old. It was a rough day. After it was over and we had dinner with the family, i had to go to my parents house and help do things to get their electricity back on. I ended up being there until 1 in the morning. As we were leaving, i told her that since my house was closer, we would sleep at my house and she could sleep in my bed with my son and I would sleep in the living room. She id not want to leave her dog for more than a day by herself, so she told me to stop by my house and get a change of clothes and sleep at her place. Once we get to her house and ready for bed, i asked for a blanket and she told me I could sleep in her bed with her. i did this. I had been wanting it for awhile. The next morning I woke up early and started massaging her while she slept. Did this for about an hour or so until I realized she was awake because of how she was positioning herself. I could tell she wanted sex, so I moved in for the thrill. We ended up spending the day together and I was there late that night. I told her i was going to stay another night and she said ok. We slept together in her bed again, but this time no sex. I spent the next day with her and went home that night. 2 days later, after she got off of work working one of her late shifts, she sends me a text immediately after she got off. She was telling me how nice it felt outside. I have asked her to go out before on one of her late shift nights and she always says no, so kind of joking, i say "Yeah, it does feel good, come over and walk with me and [our son]." She said ok, and came over. I was surprised. We eneded up taking him to a park and walking at 9 at night. It was nice. I ended up hanging out at her place the next night and left kind of late. This past weekend, we hung out saturday night (I asked if she wanted me to stay and she said no). I went over there early sunday and brought them breakfast. We went out and ran some errands and then went ot he rplace and watched TV and cooked out on the grill. That night, we had sex and then I asked her again if I could stay and she told me no. I was honestly surprised she did. So, thats what the last couple of weeks have been like. I seem to be getting closer, then i step back some. Well, she makes me step back. I am not sure which direction we are going or if there is a chence for recinciliation yet considering there still is no kissing, hugging or cuddling. Thanks for reading that mess.
Author HopePhil Posted August 26, 2008 Author Posted August 26, 2008 Well, my Boss has reduced my pay by eliminating my bonuses. Economy must suck because I have been here for over 4 years and never once done without a bonus. What sucks is my Bonuses are about 1/3 of my monthly pay. Because of this, I am going to look for more work and talked to my ex about it this morning when dropping off my son. When I was telling this to her, she has been helping me try and get a job where she works in the same building. The same company has another building about 15 minutes away, but she said I should apply for the ones in her building... which I did. We would not be working near each other, just in the same building. Anyways, just thought I would share. I would have never asked her to get me a job where she works even though I did think it.
