It Figures

That I would still be wide awake at nearly midnight the night before I have to go back to work. Le sigh. I didn’t even nap today! Or sleep in that late! Or drink caffeine, for pete’s sake!

The Red Wings game totally kicked ass; they won 3-0. They’ve had shut-outs in the first 2 games of the series. Two games down, two to go to win.

I was on some site today and was reading — what else? — relationship articles, and there was one that interested me. It was about the dating mistakes of the characters on Sex in the City. So I took the quiz, fully expecting, from the descriptions, to be Carrie or Miranda. Nope, I was a Samantha. I was like, whatev, but the description does fit:

When you meet the hotties you are into no-strings-attached sex. Often you have the thought, “I don’t need or want a relationship.” But sometimes you meet a guy, have great sex in his king-sized bed and open up not only sexually but emotionally. Everything is unfolding perfectly. Too perfectly. After the cozy coupling and three hour confessionals you start to like the guy and get scared to death. You find yourself running away while secretly hoping he’ll chase after you. Your deeper fear about being entangled and hurt in a relationship surfaces like a Loch Ness monster and starts running the show. You pull back and become unavailable, distant or quiet–or you act crazy and dump him. Even if he acts loving, you insist that he doesn’t really care about you. You may even tell him to see other girls. It happens almost against your own will and for no particular reason. In spite of how you chased him away, you still sit there waiting for his text, email, or phone call. And it never comes. You secretly or not-so-secretly want the guy to chase after you but he doesn’t. Try as you might you just can’t seem to overcome this dead-end pattern, which I call Chase Me. It happens time and time again.

Umm yeah. Guilty as charged. I am very skilled at pulling back and creating distance. God forbid a guy should think that I am interested in him. Le sigh. I really need to work on that.
