And, an update...

Listen, I have spent years- YEARS- making excuses for guys I have been in relationships with.  Excuses that I believed with all my heart. Until, you know, it became clear that they were indeed just excuses and that I was wasting both my time and potential by continuing the relationship.

Maybe that has jaded me.  Maybe that has made me shift so far in the other direction that I don't give anyone a proper chance.  That being said, this guy I like...I think maybe Jamie was right when she said she thought he was a douchebag.  Or, at least that's how I'm feeling.

Am I reading too much into things?  Sure, probably (as usual) but I feel again as if I am the one putting in all the effort (also as usual) and I can't do that again. I can't allow myself to do that again.
I KNOW he's busy (aren't they always?) but you know if you have any interest in someone, you make time.  Because you can always make time for things you want to make time for. It's a simple as that.
