wow. back to the reina_confundida pity party for a minute.
so.... i seem to have this tendency to be the girl that boys are interested in.... for like 5 minutes, right before finding their true love. i'm like that exotic mango-infused chai-scented creme caramel that they look at longingly on the menu for the briefest moment right before choosing the boring but satisfying bowl of plain old vanilla ice cream instead. guaranteed not to shake up your world at all, that vanilla. but mangos in creme caramel, dude, that's just crazy talk. and frankly, yes, i am starting to take it personally.
had been talking to this lovely boy in maine.... laid back, MA-born, CA-bred, artistic entrepreneurial hippie type.... and i mean, not just exchanging a few emails, but like hours-long phone conversations kind of talking.... and then the line went dead. no emails, no calls, no nuthin'. from super promising to super nothing in the course of the week. and being a girl, yes i analyzed everything i said and did, and no, there wasn't anything potentially alarming in the mix.
swung by his myspace page tonight.... and he's now listed as "in a relationship."
in a relationship? in a week? are you serious? wtf?
mostly i'm just bummed, 'cause he seemed like he could have been an interesting pal if nothing else. but yeah, there's still a little part of me somewhere that definitely needs to call up a girlfriend and use a lot of, "ohmygod, can you believe he did that?"s for the next few minutes.

you could have my luck. well i actually wouldn't call it luck. i've been talking and emailing people through match. some are really pushy. i've had my fair share of disappearing acts. when people ask me why i'm single, they definitely can't say it's the lack of effort. creme caramel sounds good
