I got the car and it's great. Getting to Cleveland was a real planes, trains and automobiles experience though. I had to connect in Chicago and American Airlines canceled tons of flights and I got stranded for a night. Ah well, I took myself to the movies which was fun. I got the car the next day and I love it!
As for karate man...I REALLY like him--too much I think. Why is it too much? Because he is not meeting my expectations in terms of pursuing me. I truly need to know that a guy digs me and to know that he needs to show me by calling, emailing, whatever. I'm not getting that right now from karate man. Though there are extenuating circumstances like some health issues and his kids spring break and travel, I think if you are into someone you find a way to let them know even if you are busy. In these days of cell phones it's easy enough to send a text or message just saying "miss you" or that kind of thing.
I don't know, maybe I just don't understand men. I've read the Mars Venus stuff--guys need their cave time and all that, but in order for me to feel valued and desired I truly need the guy to make an effort--it doesn't have to be grand gestures, just little things to know I am on his mind.
Things are SO nice and sweet and affectionate when we are together and when he leaves all I can think about is when will I see him next, but apparently he does not have the same experience. He leaves and sends a nice email about our time together and then goes underground for a while.
I don't like it. It makes me insecure. My girl friends and my girlfriend's boyfriends reassure me that I'm "getintoable" but I really wonder if I am. It is all pretty frustrating but it is also a very valuable learning experience. If only I could learn to be more patient!
Love to all us needy, passionate, insecure and brave souls!
