Lunch

I often wonder if my swift decisiveness is a bad thing. My cubical neighbor at work said, “Boy, once you mentally decide on something, you decide!” Which doesn’t seem like a bad comment in and of itself, but if you look at the context around the comment, it makes me consider what the true impact could be.

A guy at work seems interested in me, we have spoken several times, joked around, smiled, waved hello. Before today though, I wasn’t positive that I returned his interest. (and I’m not saying every man that says hello to me is interested in me, there’s just a certain unmistakable effort that a man can put into walking by your desk before it becomes clear…) Now though, I have initiated an email conversation and asked him if he’d be interested in lunch. He said fine, which is fine, but mentioned something about rumors getting started and something about being prepared to respond… Uhh….it’s just lunch, was pretty much my comment to him. Dear Lord, please don’t let him be another freak!?!?!! I don’t think I can take many more before losing all faith in the gender.

So therefore, before today, I had not made a decision on this person, whether or not he was just a passing acquaintance with very nice blue eyes, or hmm…could it be something else with just a simple little “when is your birthday” email?
Well…someone’s just emailed me….so lets see…decisiveness good? Bad? Freak? No Freak? The anticipation is doing a wonderful job of distracting me from my work =)

Nope…wasn’t from him….
