A Perfect Example....

Here is a perfect example of why I think I'm single. I really surround myself with all of the wrong type of guys and here is why.

Five years ago, I worked at GM Place when the Grizzlies were still in town. I worked for Aramark, buddy who we shall name "No Balls, No Game" worked for the Grizzlies. Well we had a flirt on for quite a while. Kind of pathetic really as neither of would do anything about it. So my friend Eileen stepped in one evening & while literally standing in front of me, told NBNG that I liked him.... I was horrified & ran & hid. She dragged me out of the bathroom and Yes, NBNG liked me back. We left & to be alone, talk , kiss what have you. (no that didn't happen).

Anyways, he drove me home the next day. A kind of ya, I'll talk to you later took place and I think I went to his birthday about a month later but nothing really came of it. The Grizzlies were transferred NBNG lost his job & he moved to Victoria. I don't see him again. He is on my msn list & every so often we chat & catch up but nothing to significant.

Cut to this past December. I am at the Coppertank for my friend Ryan's birthday. Two guys walk in. I think one is kind of cute & he happens to notice me as well... Well, i figure out I know him! It's NBNG.. so I go & say hi.. I give a hug & his friend invites me to sit w/ them while they wait for their food. So we all chat & the waitress brings their cutlery so I decidet that is my cue to excuse myself back to my table when Steve, the friend, says... "you & NBNG should exchange numbers" to which NBNG replies, I can get hold of her.

I'm taken back a tich & reply "Yes, he's on my MSN" Not satisfied w/ that dismissal, NBNG says "Ya, well, I haven't been on that in the longest time"

So I go back to my table & ask my friend Andy if I just got burned and he informs me yes which pisses me off for 2 reasons

A: Get over yourself, it was 5 years ago
B: I was just being nice, not trying to pick you up

The next day when I was online, who signs on but NBNG. I ignore him & I've seen him on there frequently since then. I haven't thought much about it since then as we still talk about the same basic nothingness.

Then the other day I signed on to Lavalife (ya, i'm on there.. bla, it passes time when it rains)

WHO do i have a smile from but the one & only No Balls No Game.

What is up with that? Is he doing it because he knows it's me (it's the same photo that is on my msn) or is he so bad at the pick up that he is actually taking this route????

So he said to ask him Why Homer Simpson is his Hero so I sent him an email through hotmail & am still waiting to get a response.

I'll keep you posted on the banal.
