My son and I went to our first den meeting for Scouts last night. The leaders are mostly women that I know from church so it was fun to sit around and visit with them. We were talking about my Single Status and they've decided that they're going to find me a Great Guy.
It sounds a little strange but I'm totally fine with being set up by other people. These are women who seem happily married, who have brothers and brother-in-laws, etc...it's a whole new resource for meeting Nice Normal Guys.
I'm not really serious about this...it's more for fun...but I've tried it this way in the past and made some pretty good friends, even if I didn't find Mr. Right.

Isn't it Ironic?
I think I deleted all the posts on the Former Crush so I'll give ya a brief overview.
This is a guy who I met last October who is divorced with 2 boys, lives by me, and we seemed to be pretty good friends. He'd watch my kid when I needed it and I'd watch his when he needed it. We'd hang out and watch movies or whatever...things were going pretty good.
Then a few months ago it started to be obvious to me that he was just using me for a babysitter. This became evem more apparent when his girlfriend (of like 2 weeks) moved in with him...and started calling me to ask me to babysit...even after I had told him I had plans. I politely refused and my son stopped going over to his house...the kids are much younger than him anyway and he just didn't like being over there.
The girlfriend turned out to be psycho (breaking in after he kicked her out, harrassing him, the whole stalker works) and he started calling me again, just to chat. (we use to talk every night but that stopped when she moved in) I was at the point when I didn't want to talk on the phone and most of the time I wasn't answering when he called...something I hadn't been doing before.
I also decided I still had a crush on a guy from years past and wanted to enjoy that. (the crush, I mean) I knew it had no future but didn't care...it's always fun to daydream, right? But that crush is over too...so now I've got no one to crush on...which leaves a lot of my spare time open.
And now The Former Crush is calling again...and I just don't feel any urge to talk to him. I'd rather go fold laundry and watch old episodes of 'Buffy' or the stupid Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen video my son brought home from the library. (he's 8 so don't ask me why...I'm hoping he thinks they're cute)
Oh well. It's nice being over everyone...leaves the good ol' heart free for someone new.
Someday, maybe.
