The X Factor

Me at a game that X and I watched together.

Due to popular demand, I will write about my high school boyfriend that has recently come back into my life. The X lives in Alabama. He comes back to Oklahoma about every other weekend for the OSU football games...

It all started back in May when he came back for an alumni dinner and asked me to be his date. I didn't think much of it because we always left on good terms. I went to this dinner with him and we had a great time. He met some of my friends and I met some of his. Let's get to the point, at the end of the night, and after several drinks, yes we did make out. The next morning wasn't awkward or weird at all. We exchanged hugs and I said good bye.

Then, in June I went on vacation to Myrtle Beach. I make the long drive all alone. This trip I decided that instead of the usual route I would go through Alabama, so I could see The X. When I was there we went to dinner and just hung out, nothing exciting. And then of course on the way home from Myrtle Beach, I did the same thing. I just started dating the psycho Designer Schminer at that time so.......and we all know how that turned out....nothing happened while on vacation becasue I was showing respect to the psycho.

Several months went by and when school started I found out he comes to Stillwater every home game. We hung out a couple times while tailgating but again, nothing happened except great times with him and friends.

Then last weekend came. I promised him, since we had missed each other for a month or so, we would hang out. So Friday I went to Stillwater and met him and his buddies (girls and guys). We had so much fun just hanging out at a bar and sharing drinks and laughs together. After closing down the bar everyone went to get food and we snuck away for a little make out session. It was fun. I mean how many times can you do that and not be afraid of getting raped or think the guy is expecting more?! So after a bit his friends show back up and we all end up hanging out and chatting some more, until 4 or so in the morning. Good times.

He's been in town all week for work and will be next week as well. This last week he has spent the night at my house 3 times. We've gone to dinner, shared drinks, and watched movies. It's funny because my dad loves him and was excited to see him too! And again, nothing happened, just good conversations!

He is what most girls would like to have. He has a good job. He's caring and thoughtful. And he loves his momma! The thing that drives me crazy is his persistent tardiness. If he says he'll be there at 7, it'll be at least 7:45 before he shows up. For all of you who know me, this is the thing that drives me the most insane about people. If you can't show up on time, you obviously don't care enough to make it happen, therefore we won't work out. Extreme, I know. I understand the occasional late arrival but not every time. Aside from this flaw, he is wonderful. I am enjoying having my friend back in town, even if it is only for a bit.

I know this isn't the most exciting blog but believe it or not, my dating life isn't always exciting. This is a little bump on my dating road that I thought I'd throw in there.
