As much as my love life isn’t fitness related directly, it SO is indirectly. Since losing ~40 pounds I found myself dating pretty steadily from Aug to Nov of last year. November was when I started dating Wiley and we officially broke up in October. Well now that I’ve healed some, I decided to dip my toes back into the dating world. It’s turned into a circus as per usual and I secretly love it.
So over the past month or so I’ve had 3 guys with the SAME NAME in my life – although one of them spells it differently.
One guy was an accidental date. He was a friend of a friend that I’d hung out with a few times in a group. I innocently contacted him about wanting to hang out as just friends, but after we hung out he made it clear he wanted to date me. We had a lot in common and had a fun time, but I wasn’t interested in dating him which was a touch awkward. Still walking on glass a bit.
The 2nd guy is Mr. Navy Lawyer who you may remember from a few posts. Most recently I saw him in October right after Wiley and I broke up when he was in town for a football game. The break up was too fresh then, but Mr. Navy Lawyer has always been the one that got away (and me for him). Since I’m driving home for Christmas we’ve discussed the possibility of me stopping in Virginia Beach where he is to see him. Not sure the exact capacity of the possible visit, but I’m open to his suggestions.
Meanwhile the 3rd guy was someone I’ve already been out with 3 times recently, but wasn’t sure how I felt. After talking to some wise friends I had the A-HA moment that I was self-sabotaging myself. So I let go and ended up having a really good time with him on our 4th and 5th dates this weekend. So in a matter of 2 days he went from being lukewarm to pretty red hot. I’ve enjoyed our conversations, banter and the making out is pretty awesome too. It’s different and new which is exactly what I need.
I failed to mention that the 3rd guy is a Captain in the Army. Which is funny because he’s at the same Rank level as Mr. Lawyer Navy who is a Lieutenant in the Navy. Look at me rocking out at my Military Bingo.
God it feels good to be young, single and alive!
