I met him last year when Carol introduced me to him. I don\’t think I remember exactly when that was. It must have been one of our parties or something along those lines.
The moment we had connected was when Carol invited him to my birthday thing. He was the only non-mhcier person there to my surprise. For some reason, I just felt something then.
So last Tuesday, when he came for Carol\’s going away dinner at Elbow Room, he came on time…I hadn\’t seen him since Carol\’s birthday dinner which I had also organized. We talked some as Alex E. was there. I must have stuttered some as I talked about how I wanted to see more arts when he mentioned he had seen a quartet.
Then at the party yesterday, he came so early. Four people from his department had arrived. I only knew one. Then Andy came later. He hadn\’t had time to bring anything and I said it was fine. But then he said, \”No, it\’s not ok!\”
Throughout the party, we exchanged smiling glances and the like.
Yes, I am quite fond of him. But what I wonder is what\’s the point when I have only 5 months left. I don\’t want to have something, to only end because I want to return to California. There\’s always long distance, but that\’s nothing I have ever ever had good things with.
He has this incredible shy demeanor, keeps to himself. Soft-spoken. Yet well-put together. I seriously don\’t know that much about him, but there\’s just something appealing about him that draws me.
And besides like all my \”real\” ex-boyfriends, his name starts with an A and has 4 letters.
