?

What happened?

o?

This sounds bad

oh don't worry. it's just more fucking english-boy frustration! time to give up?

sorry, peeps. i'm kinda drunk. or i was earlier in the evening. which i spent with english boy and his belgian friend who was adorable and i'd totally hit on if only i knew finally once and for all that e.b. is not into me. but it's still unclear. though it shouldn't be, right?

oh noes!

Miss mia, I don't have internet at my house anymore because I can't pay the billz. I want to hear this story though!

Details, please.

english boys are rarely worth it

omg, mizzchelle! oh noes!!! :(

@sally: good point there.

Fuck it; if you don't know, and aren't willing to ask, then bail on the brit.

so i just came back (it's 4am now where i am) from a night out drinking and pool playing with english boy and a bunch of other people who dwindled and dwindled until it was just me, english boy and belgian boy. and i got drunk. thought he was too, but when the three of us walked towards home and i thought my chance would be to say you should come stay at my place because you shouldn't drive home, he insisted he was fine and drove home.

i got a hug goodnight from belgian boy (who is english boy's friend and who i just met tonight for the first time), but zilch from e.b.

wtf?

time to give up, eh?

and yet he made plans w/me for tomorrow day, tomorrow
night and sunday. wtf, right?!

maybe if i started hitting on his friend it would finally sink in. but i don't do that kinda shit. unless i know for sure e.b. just isn't into me. then, well, the young belgian is mighty cute and we got along swimmingly...

Sounds like there might be more chemistry with the Belgian.

i'm sure he's like 25 or something. and it would be awkward. or so i seem to think. but wtf is up w/english boy, then? how long am i supposed to wait?

Wait for what? For criminy's sakes, you're a swinging single ex-pat.

ps, yo, rearden! what's up? we hardly ever see you 'round these parts...

Sounds to me like he didn't want to do or say anything in front of his friend. You got a hug from him every other time, but not this time? Friend's presence seems to be the x-factor.

That's just a poorly formed guess on my part, though.

especially if he's name is dave and/or he is a backpacker
male english backpackers are the scum of the earth

@art: i know, you are so right. wtf should really be wtf is my problem, eh?

it's marc and he's kind of a backpacker but not really. i mean, he is, but not typical. he's kinda dorky, actually.

he totally could have come home w/me and he totally knew it. or so i thought. but maybe...i dunno. guess tomorrow when we are *alone* alone during the day, like makeart suggested, i will find out for sure, n'est ce pas?

he's the only one remotely my age! but then again, i guess that never stopped me before...especially in other countries...

btw, now the investment banker is iming me and is all like 'maybe i'll come visit you...' but of course i hardly hear from him lately...

oh and now he wants me to meet him in sydney in feb. i know, i know, if you can't keep up, don't worry. i can't either.

@purl: you just want me to keep the guy named 'bonesy' on my list for your own pleasure!

sigh. i know. bonesy is hot but he doesn't like me AT ALL. ran into him at a party last weekend and he couldn't get away fast enough! wtf? but, whatever.

Blow off this English punk.

I'm sorry, but you've either been friendzoned or the Limey has taken English reserve to unheard of heights.

oom, you speaketh wisely, as always. i am giving him 24 hours or less, no more. then i'm hitting on his young belgian friend. serves him right, eh?

If I can be frank, even if Mr. English would like to sex you up, you shouldn't since he's obviously genetically unfit for any sort of reproductive act due to clueless to your signals and overall awesomeness.

&hearts , oom. you may very well be right. i'll report back tomorrow.

oh, and if i don't report back by this time tomorrow, i totally scored with the english boy. (deserving on his part or not)

Crap...that would make me genetically unfit for such acts as well. :(

not at all, jay def. i know for a fact you are not clueless as to my overall awesomeness.

heh.

@catlady - Well, I'm not clueless to that. I am well aware of how awesome you are. I just meant I'm clueless to any sort of signals that women are sending me.

gnight, y'all. thanks once again for indulging me in such silliness.

oh, and oom...i met a religion prof at one of the universities here and we had an interesting discussion--which i dont really remember bc i was drunk. but i will try to feel out if she has any good info or advice or whatever.

i know, i was just kiddin'. we're all clueless, i think, when it comes to picking up signals from those from whom we want signals.

or so methinketh.

Thanks! I was talking to someone else about this today. Apparently, they always need American History profs 'round the world so maybe I can get redbecca to agree to this.

That said, you are very awesome. :)

That's a lotta fuck.

I woulda hit it by now.

@purl: &hearts & giggles.

@tee: duly noted.

@purl: &hearts & giggles. my luck he'll text me from new zealand next month and tell me how much he regrets not putting the moves on me.

@tee: duly noted.

@oom: totally true and i happen to now be friendly w/the person who runs the international program at payap university...

@khaaaan: a lotta fuck for no fuck at all, eh?

(also, oops, thought that didn't post the first time cuz my laptop went into forced hibernation!)

@jay def: thanks, hon. as are you, as all here can attest to.
