Well, I'm in kind of an odd situation with a staff member at my apartment complex. I went to go see the leasing consultant/front desk guy at my apartment complex office Wednesday morning when I got off work, to get my 3rd floor unit on the list for this coming Monday for the weekly pest control rounds - my complex has pest control come out weekly every Monday.
I went in to see him, and the assistant landlord was there, and they're all very nice people. I asked to get on the pest control list to have my apartment treated (just precautionary treatment) and the front desk guy, the assistant landlord and I all chatted small-talk for a bit - I told them my shoplifter stories from this past work rotation, and how theft was ramping up as we head into the holidays, etc.
That's when the leasing consultant asked me, kinda beating around the bush, I felt... "Hey Joe, I've got a question to ask you." "Sure," I said. He asked me, "You wouldn't happen to have played Super Smash Brothers Brawl, have you?" No, I said, and he said not to worry about it.
He's actually tall - taller than me (I want to say 6ft 3 or 4 - I'm 6ft even), and adorable. I don't know if he's straight, but if he is, then I do respect that.
He's asked me that before, and I don't quite know what to make of it.
Besides, I've got too much on my plate as it is, trying to work on myself and get back in to see various doctors on various medical issues I'm having (feet, vision, dental, etc.), and looking forward to getting back to school in January.
As much as I would love having a man, I don't feel that now is the time. And with what I'm trying to do with my life, and trying to make something out of myself professionally, I do feel that there is a very real possibility that I may never get to have a relationship with anyone - that me coming home to four walls and a bed just to go to sleep, get up, and do it all over again is how it's going to be for rest of my life.
I don't know. I really don't.
