There is this boy in my life. He's been in my life for 14 yrs. He's held a piece of my heart for about 9 of those years. We reconnected after two years and he's all I can think about. Well not all obviously, I still fantasize about Paul Walker, Kevin Costner, and Travis Pastrana.
Anyway. We text because, well, I hate talking on the phone. So I haven't "talked" to him for a few days. Like since Tuesday morning at 2AM. I'm not up on etiquette for how long one must wait to receive a reply before making contact again.
Yet, when I think about it, maybe it's a good thing that after two weeks of endless contact, that he and I aren't talking all the time. It's healthy.
But still the question is: What is a proper - and not crazy - time period before you try to contact the opposite sex? As I type that sentence a scene from "He's Just Not That Into You" with Jennifer Goodwin keeps replaying in my mind.
Speaking of that movie, maybe I should re-read the book. But I have loads of other books I need to read. Or maybe I should stop waiting around for a guy whom I've put loads of time into to come around and want to date me. He hasn't wanted to before, what makes now different. We're older. We're wiser. We aren't so immature, but we weren't back then either. We - ok I'm not so naive. Who knows. In this situation, only he knows. And all he's said is "never say never." If I had a dollar for every time I've heard that, then I'd surely have the MacBook Pro of my dreams.
So I'll watch "Rumor Has It" and take in the moral of the story which is 'the grass ain't always greener.'
