I called her

Her being BU, the girl I had a date with two weeks ago.

I texted her the next day saying good time, and she wrote back let's do it again soon.

Then, I never called.

Partly because I was sick, and sound awful. Partly because I have NO time to take off and go out. Partly because enough was not there with her that to move mountains to do it again seems not worth it.

But...

She was nice and funny and pretty and likes things I like. So...

I have been having this recurring dream.

In it, I am sleeping in bed. I roll over to change positions, and wake a bit when I do. In waking and rolling, I realize there is a woman in bed with me. She has her back to me, and I can't make out who she is, but she is naked. So am I. I scoot closer to her, and spoon her, and I can feel the warmth of our bodies. She sleepily pushes her back into me and I put an arm over her and fall back to sleep.

That is the dream. Nothing crazy, but it sure does make me wake wishing it were true. It also drives me crazy that it isn't a specific someone.

So...

With that dream in my head, and some recent conversations with other guys about their girl dating activity, and nobody else to call, I called BU.

Also, the night my show closed, a guy who knows both of us told me she was wondering why I didn't call. I said I was sick. The guy didn't press it, he is smart not to get too much in to it, but I don't think the I'm sick defense is a sure one.

So, I called. I left a message. She hasn't called back. I don't think she will.

Which is great, actually.

Like I said there was too much not there between us for us to keep going. And if you go on a second date, then things start to change. Then you are committing. I mean most everyone knows you sleep together on the third, or the very least the fourth. So, I would be half way to naked on another date.

Also, if she is mad at me, and punishing me by not calling back, then my god, I don't want that in my life right now.

I want someone who is fun. Funny. Hangs out and laughs. Good looking, so I enjoy staring at her, but not drop dead. Someone who wants to sleep with me, but is also got too much in her life for a relationship right now.

Is that so tough?

I'm not going to call BU again.

Unless she calls me back. Then, we'll see. I mean how tantalizing was that sentence, I'm half way to naked!
