The best part about being single and having amazing and experienced friends is having great people to laugh with and share the ridiculousness that is me :). I've never really been one for rules in life, preferring to march to my own beat, but it always fascinates me when I learn I've broken one of many cardinal unwritten rules in life. Last night was just another one to add to the list...
Last night I joined Samantha and Stanford for a local party at Everleigh. A chill night with some old school tunes and the many stakeholders in the king west nightlife scene. Samantha slipped into the usual wing woman zone and before I knew it had me chatting up with Matt an entrepreneur in town from Vancouver. Good looking, established and an air of edge that always draws me in. An unusual night as I found Matt walking me home from the party. Yet something just didn't sit right with me...and before I knew it I was sending Matt packing back to his hotel. He begged to stay, trying to negotiate even. In the moment, I was annoyed and wanting nothing more then to call it a night. Alas he agreed to leave only after taking down my number. I climbed into bed and naturally had to fill Samantha in by text. Now I was laughing at myself and the events of the evening...maybe this was a whole new level of crazy. Lol. I didn't care...my heart and mind were tied up on someone else.
I called Deanne who was in L.A. To fill her I'm as we'd been chatting before I left for Everleigh. True to fashion, Deanne laughed hysterically shocked at what I'd done. She is always my source for the cardinal rules of dating and laid it flat out that I'd broken every code. I was laughing too. I didn't care about the rules, I acted on my feelings and that was that. More entertaining then that...I received a text from Matt who was boarding his flight back to Vancouver. He wanted to keep in touch and connect on his next trip...??? Apparently the crazier you are and less you care the more attractive you become!?! There you go again...so counterintuitive. Not a wonder why so many remain single for so long.
Is there really anyone out there who can say they know all the rules of engagement, who writes the rules anyway!?! Lol
