Re: Sian's restart diary - third time lucky! :-D

Evening all! Or should I say morning?! :)

This is going to sound completely maudlin, but this is my diary so if people don't like it then tough.

Sometimes I think it's such a shame when we realise the hand that we, and others around us, have been dealt. I was having a few drinks in the pub tonight, and got talking to this lovely lovely guy. The more I got talking to him the more I could see that he's actually the male version of me...shy, socially awkward and just generally a pleb!

Unfortunately though he has a partner. She's about 20 years older than him, and he admitted that he sometimes feels like he wants to extricate himself from the relationship, but she suffers from depression and he feels like he needs to be there to care for her.

You know when you get that feeling that you've just clicked with someone? He even admitted that I'm the only person in over a year that he's clicked with enough to overcome that completely debilitating shyness that we obviously both feel in social situations. When he walked me home I have to say that it's the most fun I've had just talking to someone in a long time!

Now I don't need anybody to tell me off, or warn me to stay away from him, as I wouldn't do anything untoward. I'm just feeling really sorry for myself...within a very short space of time it felt lik I'd always known him, and I felt like I could love him forever more. I'm not usually like this...I'm always so wary of getting hurt, to the point that I usually make the conscious decision to not interact with people.

I just feel stupid! Never mind...that's life hey! :eek:
 
Aw lovely :(

Not sure what to say really. I wouldn't distance yourself from him. You can be there as a friend. If he does make the decision to leave his current relationship, then who knows. But don't let the chance of a good friend pass you by if you can help it xx

Life is so tough at times, but I am a big believer that everything happens for a reason, and we do have a path in life xx

Thanks hun :) I'm also a believer that things happen for a reason, so I shall just have to wait and see what, he anything, comes of it. A new friend would be a great outcome to be fair, so I wouldn't turn my nose up at that :)

Xxx

Awww, thanks hun! Sometimes I feel like there's something wrong with me, because I only ever seem to find myself attracted to men who've already got a partner, in particular a partner who has problems that mean they have to care for them. Perhaps it's the caring bit I'm a sucker for :) Who knows, lol!

Xxx

I agree with you hun, life is indeed mysterious! It was definitely a good night, so at the very least it's put me in a good mood for the week :)

Good ideas! I had egg for lunch though so I'd better not have another one! I also only have Greek Muller yoghurts in at the moment, so I'll leave them for another day. Maybe I'll cook up some pasta or something, I quite like plain pasta and that's filling!
 
Re: Sian's restart diary - third time lucky! :-D

Ooo I love plain pasta, OH thinks I'm odd lol xx

It's not odd at all! Mind you, I used to munch on raw spaghetti...now that's odd! I've decided to sacrifice some of my cheese from tea and now I'm going to have pasta with a bit of grated cheese :) xx
