The Big Aiyah

::I feel so lucky

We went out to eat and no sparks ignited. Whew, that would have been soooo bad. Thank God, I didn’t develop feelings towards my friend’s ex. I didn’t want to be Chandler secretly in love with Joey’s girlfriend or Joey obviously in love with Rachel. I’m glad that I wouldn’t be tormented if I saw any of the ubiquitous Friends DVDs.

The girl and I are still friends and still have a good time whenever we see each other. We don’t see each other regularly, which is good for me; otherwise I don’t know if I would feel differently. It’s just that there was a week in which I didn’t, couldn’t trust myself. It wasn’t all sexual, she is a very attractive woman, but I was more “curious” because of her personality and traits. It was because **drum roll** she could always make me laugh. Not just a regular “haha”, then go to the next joke, but frequently get me (and each other) a full belly laugh that would fuel hours worth of laughs. We also share a lot of interest that can quickly delve us into conversations that span politics, current affairs, adult swim lineup, etc.

I’m just feeling relieved that I didn’t have to start berating myself for getting really interested in a friend’s recent ex. That would have been my bad. It’s not like there aren’t a lot of beautiful, intelligent, witty, down-to-earth women available, it’s just that it’s hard to date people you have a good connection to. Those usually turn out to be your friends and I love all of them. That’s why I feel so lucky that I didn’t have to cross any boundaries this past week.
