When I spoke to Dating Site Guy in February, he teased me with the news that he "might" be moving back to this state,depending on where he found a new job. But, in the course of talking, he admitted that he was looking all over the country, and that he wasn't specifically trying to around here. I would have understood if he had been; after all, his family lives in the town he used to, so why wouldn't he want to be close? I wouldn't have thought it was about me, though I'd wish some tiny part of it might've been.
Well, in the last few weeks, so many things have changed for me. I heard about a job, applied for it, and had a great interview...and I got the job. Finally, an office type of job, sitting, and making more money! My knees are very excited to get the break, and my pscyhe is grateful to be out of Retail, though I will be in Customer Service, still. It's in a nearby town, which I will call F-Town.
Me getting this job made me wonder what Dating Site Guy had decided about his own job situation. But I wasn't going to text him. I'd been fighting that urge, and it had gotten easier after the last few blog entries. I'd been trying to put him out of my head. And, I'd even been trying to see if a certain guy was interested. I gave him my number, but it's been nearly 2 weeks and he hasn't texted, so maybe not.
The other morning, I was getting ready for work, and I heard a text. It was Dating Site Guy. Telling me that he did, indeed, get a new job.
In F-Town.
What. I replied, telling him about the new job and how it was also in F-Town. He laughed it off, and I spent the next ten minutes staring into a mirror, telling myself, "DON'T YOU DARE!!!" Over and Over. I was really talking to that spark of hope that always seems to appear when we talk.
Of course, now it truly seems inevitable that we will see each other again st some point. It will be...interesting.
