Why Should I Have To Break Up With Someone I've Met Four Times In My Life?!
01-01-10 11:56 AM

Josh drove up to see me for New Years, which kind of freaked me out. It meant that he spent the whole evening alone at Epcot while I was at work (getting groped by Brazilians). And, as I've become increasingly decided that we're not meant to be, apparently he was thinking the opposite. And I can't deal with that. Not anymore. I'm over being nice to people just because they have a crush on me. I can't handle it. And he's so awkward. He's a very strange guy.

Anyways, he kept asking me where I thought "we" were going. Which is silly because tonight is the 4th time we've ever hung out. I've definitely decided that I can't jump into relationships anymore. Those never end well. I need to get to know people first. But from his side, it feels like, instead of "Let's get to know each other, I think you're interesting," it's like, "You are going to be my next girlfriend, so get used to it." And some of his mannerisms I just can't get used to.

And he kept asking me, and I tried a non committal "Well, I think I'm going to be moving back to Washington soon, I don't think Florida is the place for me." Which is true. If I could do my job somewhere else, I would. I'm so not into Florida anymore.

But he kept pushing it, and eventually I made it clear enough that he's coming on too strong and it's freaking me out.

I feel bad. I've never really let a guy down like that. But honestly, we've known each other for about a month, and seen each other FOUR TIMES... we did not have a relationship going. Yes, it was freaking me out, and making me defensive. I felt bad, because I was very angry all night, which is not how I wanted to spend my New Years, nor how I felt he should have to spend his. But he's just too much in so many ways. It put me on edge.

The way he moves... it, I don't know, embarrasses me. Like, he's trying too hard. Like he's trying to be smooth but ends up looking... odd.

Getting to know him was hard.

Ugh, it was just a frustrating night. I'm determined to make the rest of the year better!

Current Mood: Annoyed

i think that people in general sometimes just don't have tact. it's one of those skills you have to develop. also, when the opposite sex is in the room, people can act weird, and well do stupid things like Josh. he deserved what he got. men that do that are ridiculous, but i think it comes down to people glorifying the other person and not realizing they are a whole person in themselves. like, for example: john is probably looking for someone that "completes him" (which is trite). But, instead will eventually determine that trying to find someone that completes you, is a horrible way about looking for a person that you can connect with, and share your whole self with another whole human being. sorry that I probably am not coming off right. i tend to think in tangents.
