Stupid

Goodness gracious! When will I learn how to handle awkward situations?! I think someone up there enjoys watching me flail. Part of my problem is I don't realize what I am getting into before it is too late. So now, lucky me, I am stuck in a horribly awkward situation where someone could potentially get hurt... Sheesh!

Dating has never been my strong point. So what happens when I let slip my lack of experience to someone who is interested in me when I don't return the feelings? Now what to do when that someone is 13 years my senior?? Now I get to look forward to a date this weekend... which no doubt will be fun, seeing as he's a nice guy, but I don't know if i can possibly get myself over the stumbling block of an extreme age difference.

Here's the plan (since I obviously can't just think things through in my head, I have to work them out on the internet)- go on the date and enjoy finally getting out. I can deal with the age difference because I wasn't bothered with him until I found out. If anyone else has a problem with it, well we're only friends. I do not see this going ANYWHERE and I'm just fine being friends. Just friends... it's good to hang out with a friend... it was good to meet a FRIEND...
(Did that sound the least bit convincing??)
