This by far is probably the least dramatic blog I’ve ever written but it’s been awhile so I had to write something because it is New Years Eve and you all deserve to know how my 2017 ends lol
Single as a Spring Chick 🐥 is how!!
In September I was going to look at my Facebook alerts and in the section an Omelet popped up under people you may know..My first thought was “Is this really who I think it is? And my second thought was “How did Facebook know?
This Omelet was a person from my past at least 20 years ago that I never personally met but talked a lot with by phone because he was in the Navy at that time and was always out to sea 🌊 or out of the country. I don’t even remember how we initially met maybe some chat room or something from back in the day
So I messaged him to see is it was truly him and I immediately got a friend request and a response “Yes it’s me”
I was super happy I found him because he was someone that I always thought of and wondered where he was..
Well we did some catching up and it was a coincidence that I was going to the DC Area and my original plans had fallen through and I already had a flight there so he invited me to come stay the weekend with him and his son from his previous marriage. He had been divorced 3 years at the time.
So I went and it was the best weekend get away I had in a long time. He and his son were such gentlemen I never touched a door 🚪, not a car door, front door, back door. I know that should be the norm but it isn’t on the West Coast (Could y’all work on that fellas in 2018) so it was nice to see that true gentlemen still existed and Chivalry was not dead 💀
Prior to me going he suggested I move to Virginia and I let him know the timing was off which was a good thing because the more I talked to him the more he said he didn’t like being in Virginia and continuously complained about hating his job as a police officer 👮♀️as it was very depressing.
That seemed to be every conversation we had to where it became depressing to me to even have a conversation with him because what do you say really? He just didn’t want to be there or do what he had been doing in his career but he also wasn’t sure where he wanted to go or what he wanted to do with his life..
He was also a very private person and didn’t share a lot about himself or his thoughts which is fine because I knew enough I’m just a talker and I enjoy good convo and getting in peoples heads. 🗣
So the calls and texts became less frequent and I just realized we just weren’t on the same page in life as far as trying to pursue anything further than a friendship
I didn’t let him go as a friend but I did let go of the thought of there being something more at this time
You never know what the future will bring but Omelet Him Go for now because dating long distance sucks ijs 🤷🏽♀️
Y.O.L.K.
