So my date with Chuck. It was wonderful and horrible in equal parts. It's like looking at a piece of the most delicious of cakes and knowing that you can never eat it. (I would have used the carrot analogy but really who craves carrots? Let's be real here.) I like Chuck. I think he likes me. But I know without a shadow of a doubt that it could never really work. The characteristics that attract me most, his ambition, his drive are exactly those that would make our relationship impossible. He works until 12:30 at night on a regular basis. He goes on business trips to China and Vietnam one or twice a month. And he is set on doing so for at least the next year of his life. I can't understand that. I would never sacrifice that much for my career. Never. Aside from feeling a little sad knowing that things will never develop between us, I enjoyed our date. He's interesting and funny. We always go to great restaurants where we eat wonderful Chinese food and gab for a couple of hours. What is better than that? I've no idea when we'll see each other again but I guess I'm ok with that (Are you buying that?). I'm willing to accept the fact that I'll only see him a few times a year (Right). I say that as though I have a choice. HA. Like my Memere says "Tu ne choisis pas avec qui tu tombes en amour." (She probably said in better French mind). If you could, like would be a lot simpler.
What God has in store for me I don't know. I just know that I have to be patient and trust that I'm following the path I'm destined to. Does this sound too...I don't know...religious? Regardless, this is the only thing that's keeping me from thinking that I'm going to be completely alone forever. Something I try to tell myself that I'm completely ok with, but the truth is I'm so not.
Enough of that. Need to focus on ze positive.
So Bullet Proof - is a song from which Canadian artist, my Trish?
I will leave you with a blog that is quite funny and makes you feel good about not having a boyfriend: My Boyfriend is a Twat. Be sure to check out the 'Quotes by Twat' section. They are priceless.
