not to get all into detail about it, but the long-short is that i've fallen for a straight guy.
again.
the sad thing is, i didn't even really know it this time. most of the other times, i'm well aware that i'm falling for the unattainable. this time, it sneaked up on me. all the signs were there. upon asking others in hindsight, they had already figured it out. but it wasn't until i was out with leanne one night, and texting my non-guy, that she asked me if i liked him, and it hit. yeah, i do.
and that makes it a little weirder. not the fact that it hadn't dawned on me that i liked him, but, well, we do work together. i was IM-ing with brandy about it at work today, kinda filling her in on what i've talked to leanne about. and leanne has said it best when she said that i tend to get into these weird non-relationships with straight guys.
it's just another weird situation i've gotten myself into that i never know how to handle and always end up doing the wrong thing the right way. how do i make things not weird with a straight guy i'm friends with, work with, and who texts me things like "i heart you".
ugh. i need a drink.

- um ... not much to say. i'm a copy editor. i like the words "nifty" and "egads." i tend to alienate people with my vast knowledge of obscure and useless trivia. i inhale gore vidal and comic books. the chicago manual is my bible. i'm a vegetarian. i enjoy drinking and the meat purveyors (and sometimes drinking with jo walston). i like to ramble. tada?

one could argue that a guy who texts "i heart you" to another guy is not entirely straight. one could also argue that a straight guy who texts "i heart you" to a gay guy is teasing him. either way, follow the nearest exit sign.
i don't even text "i heart you" to you. and i do. the thing with "hearting" people though, is that it's an obnoxious term. at least people haven't started saying "make heart to." it can't replace hate. in my heart.
rambles. i know you already mentioned me in this post, but i'll say something small anyway. i'm not entirely sure on your sitation either as i have never seen it firsthand. sorry, friend. maybe if you got "loud and clear" we could figure this out.
p.s. why did you take away the option for me to type in my name and url at the end? i don't have any of these other conventional methods...
