Godo that you bumped this, I missed your posts, sorry
I would send an email letting know and would not offer to meet him on his BD. If he wants that, he can bring it up. And I think you should go if he invites you. Wingwoman? Sure, if you have one.
Great news about your business, I want to have celo lessons, can we have virtual ones, where should I check? K
I'd send an e-mail saying when you're about and just see what happens. If he does invite you to a birthday do, definitely go, and even better with a wingwoman. If not, there'll be the end of the festival too. It seems to me like you guys have a good friendship going- I love that!
I can't believe lyricafest has come round again so quickly- I can remember when you went last year. Doesn't time fly (and how English am I ending a thought with that!)
Thank you for writing back!!! It's probably overwhelming and silly for me not to post for weeks on end and then mega-post all my thoughts at once. Thanks so much for your thoughts and advice. It means a lot.
K, I will keep you posted about my business!! It would be fun to give you virtual cello lessons. maybe once my new site is up I'll email it to you ... it will be good, I'm going to hire a professional designer and everything.
I went ahead earlier today and just emailed him when I'd be in town. I mentioned that I might be in town on saturday (because it's true) but didn't say anything about it being his birthday. I didn't ask when he wanted to see me or if, I just stated what my plans were.
The festival is awesome....wish I could perform for all of you.
Weird news flash: I am feeling really attracted to the second violinist in my group--the same guy at lyricafest last year who slow danced with me in the kitchen--and I am sitting next to him in rehearsals for 4-6 hours a day. It is so retarded, when I'm around him I feel really nervous and self-conscious and mostly just ignore him because my heart is a-flutter. I feel like I am 9 years old!!!
Don't worry, I have ridiculous self-control, and I don't do flings.
He wrote me back: That's awesome! I'm glad you are having a good time there. I have some time Sat morning and then I am driving to NJ somewhere that afternoon around 1. After the 7th, I'll be out of town till the 11th... I'm not sure how long you'll be in nyc...
Did I tell you I ran into XXXXX XXXXX a couple weeks ago?
???? I hate deciding. I guess I should offer to meet him Saturday morning, since I'll already be in town and I'm not sure I'll stick around until after the 11th. Or offer to come into the city while I'm at the festival...?? This way I'll certainly be backed up against another event
Maybe something like, "How about saturday? Do you want to meet in Brooklyn?" That way if he wants to see me again that is possible...??? Don't know??? Hate deciding???? Just want to feel loved and desired???
Hmmmmmm.....in my not very wise or helpful opinion.......offer to meet him Saturday morning. What is the harm? You can always make like you have to be somewhere at a certain time but then if things are going well you can always have a "mystery phone call" cancelling said plan.
Go with your gut on this one T. You are so amazing and strong and you will see a way through this.
