Long time coming

I feel like its been ages since I've written on this thing!! Life has changed significantly for me! I quit my old job at the ad agency and now work at a digital ad network...I got promoted and am getting paid much more! I love my new job and the environment. So absolutely no complaints in the career department!! I work from 10-6 and its nice not having to stay past 7 PM.

I wish before I graduated the professors would have said something on the lines of "college forces people to come together...real world is nothing like that!" I've been trying to put myself out there and meet new people but its hard. I've been pro-active and joined a volleyball league....hilarious right? But I think this is the first step in the right path for me. Love life? Well that is non-existent. I had my first New York asshole experience though...

So I had a pre-game party at my apartment with one of my roommates...and I invited a girl that I went to college with to come. She invited one of her guy friends who then brought one of his friends. We will call him Bobby. Well Bobby and I hit it off...and we made out heavily at the bars. Whatever it happens...well he ended up coming home with me and we hooked up. He said and did all the right things. I fell for it. I thought with my tiny brain that maybe for once I met a nice guy through a friend! Well boy was I wrong. He and I texted back and for about a week. And he asked me to go to happy hour but I was working out at that point. And I reached out to him during the weekend to see if maybe if he wanted to meet up at the bars. Basically- long story short. If a guy was into you he will make every effort to see you and want to hang out with you. This guy not so much. In the beginning he did...but alas, at the end he didn't. So it was hard accepting the fact that "he's just not that in to me" and moving on. I would think what was wrong with ME? What did I DO? When in reality it wasn't me. In fact its his loss! I'm not dumb enough to keep being persistent and try to convince him to like me. That's not fair.

So what can I do to improve myself? Well, for once in my life I accept it that its ok to be single and I should just be me. Yes- there will be days where I wish I had someone to be with and cuddle. But I have to be ok in my own skin.

And Mark..from the previous entries we didn't end up working out. For me there was no va va voom and sparks! I had honestly no desire to meet him up and want to hang out with him. He did make the effort to ask me to hang out..but I never asked hm. So in this case I was the Bobby and he was me! Funny how life is eh?
