Thank you, Art Marr

So I was talking to one of my patients yesterday about a subject we are both fond of: MOVIES!

We usually discuss what ones are our favorites, what we would like to see, etc...

Then I told him how I like to go to movies at the theatre by myself.

His automatic response cut into what I was saying.

"There is no reason why a woman like you should ever go to the movies alone. I can't understand how any man has ever passed you up!"

I could have cried. I am thinking about it now, kinda sad. the only thing I could tell him that I knew was true was that nice men don't ask me out. Nice men aren't interested in me.

I feel like there is something I am doing wrong. I know I am not as social as I would like to be out in CA. I thought I was going to have more friends than this. I was so excited to get up here and meet new people. I thought I had it all figured out because I would be hanging out with Sean, and that would be the start and solution to everything I needed as far as companioned comfort here in CA.

I didn't see it coming that he was already to be back in NY byt the time I got here in CA.

When I had started to give up on him, I went on Craig's List just to see what would happen if I solicited a woman seeking man ad. I got so many responses, it blew me away. there was one guy I was interested in that seemed to be promising that I had gotten enough courage to go and meet, and he dropped off the face of the Earth.

I realized I had this open invitation to hang out with David, so I opted to see what he would do. After about 2 months of email tag, we finally hung out 2 weeks ago for the first time.

He seemed so perfect. Handsome, nice manners, excellent vocabulary, good conversationalist, although I felt like I was on a job interview since he kept asking question after question...

Well, I heard one sentence from him since, and now nothing more than a week later.

I know he is going to Alaska next week for the Iditarod. I am way jealous, and I was hoping that would be a great tie for us to continue talking. I still think he is a busy guy and doesn't have much time. Although I know if a guy is interested, it doesn't matter, he'll call. I just keep praying that if nothing works out with David, a nice guy will finally come my way.
