“Maybe, maybe in another life
I could be the girl who walks up to the guy
And tells him, tells him how she feels inside
But, not tonight, no not tonight” – Not Tonight by Elle Varner
Thanks to Elle Varner for basically writing my theme song for every time that I am out and I see a cute guy that I am unsure of how to approach, which is often. Thanks girl.
In my last entry, I talked about my lackluster social life. Well, this is kind of a Part II to that entry, but more about my inability to talk to a guy. I know. complete sadness.
While at the quaint little bar/restaurant, I saw this cute guy come in. It was crazy because I had actually seen him a couple of weeks prior at a race that I ran, and I thought he was cute then; however, only me and the people that read this post will know that. So…there’s that.
We were literally in the same close quarters space for like an hour and a half, but I couldn’t even muster up any words to say. Like what the heck?! Then I thought, it wouldn’t have mattered though. I wouldn’t even had known what to say.
Me attempting to randomly spark up a convo: “Hey young sir. You look really handsome.”
Ummm…yeah. Thats definitely not it, and I am LITERALLY ashamed of my lack of basic skills, but I REFUSE for that to be the end of the story.
One of my goals for this year is to be more social, which includes being able to speak to guys while out in these streets, responsibly of course. However, I know the first step of my goal is to actually step out the doors of my place and go places where other humans are.
Next time I post about being out in theses streets, I will have a much better outcome than I had this time.
