Wednesday was the last night I spent with Indie Rock Girl before she moved back to her home city in the United States.
We met up for our weekly tradition of snuggling in front of her laptop to watch the week's episode of LOST (I heart Sawyer). I surprised her by skipping my dance class and showing up an hour early. I also bought her 2 coffee mugs of her favorite cartoon character as a house warming gift for her new place in the US.
Then things got awkward.
It was inevitable that it would be awkward but we ended up making out and then she started to get all stuffy and asked to stop. I listened and we chilled for a bit more but I figured she was just getting distracted and only wanted a break to get back on track. I started it again and after a bit of making out and stuff she stopped and told me she couldn't continue.
This time she was really balling and was upset.
It felt weird to see someone have those kind of feelings over me. Don't get me wrong, I'm sad she's gone and we had to stop dating, but from the get go, we both knew it was a temp thing and went into it just having fun. I knew she's be sad we were breaking up but wasn't expecting that kind of a reaction.
I realize I have no idea what I want in a partner in terms of being serious but I did learn a lot from her and realized she had a lot of qualities that I will look for in someone.
IRG was definitely a huge step up from Wendy.
I dated Wendy for almost a full year. All she ever talked about was her friends. She didn't eat any normal food (toast for supper) so I could never take her out for dinner (or any meal really). We never had sex and would only sit around and watch a movie or tv. She'd get irritated over me really quickly, especially if I got lost while driving.
IRG on the other hand was super active. Was always up for going for a walk up the mountain or checking out a concert. She ate everything so we got to try out a bunch of fun restaurants I'd never eaten at in my own city. She was super laid back and we never got into any arguments or fights. I got us totally lost on our road trip and she didn't care one bit. She liked just driving around aimlessly. Oh, and we had sex. Lots and lots of sex. She even bought the first box of condoms we used!
Obviously I'm not jumping up and down in joy that I'm single again but after a break from the dating scene (I promised myself to give it a month or so before I go on any dates) I'll eventually get back into it. So, keep coming back. I'm sure I'll find something to write about.
