A Guy Said He Was Going to Marry Me Last Night
He wasn’t kidding
I went to a fundraiser last night with a few friends. We came back and went to a bar not far from our apartment building. I was excited because a guy I know is back in town.
I call him “The Australian.”
Because he’s from Australia.
He’s my buddy.
I met and bonded with him in November when I wasn’t going through the easiest time. He overheard me talking one day, and couldn’t help but chime in.
He’s a smart ass like me.
We hung out for a while and I agreed to meet him again tomorrow. I was ready to go home. My dorm bestie was sitting beside me, and was also ready to head out soon.
A guy walked in and sat next to me.
My dorm bestie knew him, I didn’t.
Another one of our guy friends was leaving. He was giving me a hard time. He said my dorm bestie was street smart but I wasn’t. He said I needed to beware of men.
He said I didn’t have the same compass that she did.
He said that I was too trusting.
I listened to what he said. He’s always watching out for me. I appreciate it. He thinks I’m a deer in the divorce dating headlights. He’s not…
