LOL- Hmmm...I would say that it was more like he never quite picked me up although he teetered right on the brink. However, I would say that he might have had some pretty good reasons which I do not wish to discuss because I am cutting myself some slack due to being in rebound/recovery from 19 year SSM. Plus, you have to remember that he is semi-famous in a very sexy field. What if you and Mrs.Cac split and you found yourself dating a semi-super-model? What if she kept casually saying things to you like "When I did the layout for Vanity Fair with Elle in Tahiti..." What if she told you that you were great in bed? I am actually rather proud of myself that I was able to maintain any level of differentiation in relation to him given my SSM induced neediness for sexual validation combined with the 7th grade groupie ego-gratification I tried very hard not to derive from dating him.
One way to look at is that in a best case high-functioning scenario that kind of guy and I would be a wonderful couple but in a worst case lower-functioning scenario that kind of guy and I are pretty close to being Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinski. Since I KNOW that I erred on the side of acting like Monica Monkey, I give him credit for good judgment for not letting me turn him into my crack dealer. ( Okay, this analogy isn't the greatest because there was no adultery or Hilary and I should make it clear that "crack" = dopamine-induced-just-sex. It probably makes more sense if I tell you that to get to his house I had to drive through some really rough parts of Detroit and when I got there we'd quite possible be having sex within about 10 minutes. It was all kind of surreal.)
