Haha, guess what? Apparently another factor contributing greatly to the "I-don't-have-a-bf" situation is my gay-man-of-my-dreams. He and I hang out so often and are always so glued to each other that EVERYONE I know apparently either thinks we're together, or that we're going to GET together. I went out to meet some friends for dinner the other night, and while catching up, they're all like, "so, did you two ever hook up?" LMFAO. Oh yeah, and I almost moved into his apartment for a few weeks since he was going to temporarily have a 2-bedroom on campus, but my parents were extremely uneasy with the idea, which wouldn't have stopped me except that he ended up going straight into a 1-bedroom rather than staying in a 2-bedroom temporarily haha...damn.
Off I go to do my replies!!! UP, UP, AND AWAY!!!

Um.... how can you be together if he's gay? I mean, do people not realize he's gay? lol I'm reminded of the gay kid and the big black girl on Glee... Um, again, why would your parents be uneasy if he's gay? I mean, they're like, the BEST roommates. They're clean, have no interest in you, and they'll take care of you like they're your mom. The only problem is that they want to party all the time... >.> Well, I guess it turned out the way it was supposed to go, eh?
Haha, I know how that feels. I have a bajillion deviations I still have to go through...

On the other hand...well, I guess that the first time I have sex, I will NOT be running to my mom saying, "GUESS WHAT! GUESS WHAT!" Like Len Levi (did I remember his name correctly?) did in JD series, lmfao. So, I guess that's a reasonable concern coming from a parent's perspective. LMFAO!!!! Omg, omg, omg (uh oh), so me and my friend also find one of our professors EXTREMELY cute. Now, just think back to JD. Cute professor. BUT, after my friend did some dirt digging to satisfy his curiosity, we discovered that he is gay, and does indeed have a bf. So, my chances went down (which I don't mind, since I just think he's cute, but have no romantic interest in him. He's just a bit of scenery...), but my friend's went up, lolz, so we've been joking around about that.
Oh! AND - just to keep you up to date - there's this guy that I'm showing interest in. He and I met up the second class, and started talking, and now whenever we see each other, we stop for a short conversation, and then it was really cute, 'cause during our last class, (which was just our second time meeting) he at first sat with one seat between us, the way we'd sat the class before ('cause two friends I'd made sat on either side of me), but right after he sat down, he got back up and scooted into the seat next to me xD
Now, the only thing is that idk if that's a sign that he likes me as a dating option or not. Remember that I'm flirtatiously dysfunctional, so I'm TRYING to look for queues. I feel like he MIGHT be hinting at hanging out sometime, 'cause for instance he's been talking about movies he wants to see (he asked if I wanted to see zombieland, but just in a conversational way), and he'll like stand up and be like, "Well, idk about you, but I'm hungry" after class, and when I was talking about going into town for some food he mentioned that he hadn't checked out town and wanted to go there sometime.
I think that maybe I'm trying TOO hard, though, lol. I mean, do those sound like hints that he might want me to show interest? I keep getting worried about sounding desperate and finding out that I turned casual conversation into possible dating hints, but I still think I might see if he'd like to go to see a movie or something with me. I hope I don't chicken out again, LMAO. I mean, I won't really have anywhere to run if I do it before class, so maybe that's my best option. Honestly, I could care less if it turned out that he didn’t like me like that. I don’t mind being single, lol, but I don’t want to sit by if he DOES like me and let him just pass. LOL and then one of the times we ran into each other on campus, I was – of course – with my gay friend, so I was a little concerned that he might jump to conclusions, but after he said hi to me, he was very polite and introduced himself to my friend before talking to me again, and I just said that we’d gone to high school together, so I think that cleared up the issue.
Oh god, I’m worrying too much, haha, sorry that you had to read all of that. But y’know, I’m nervous! I feel more confident about him than I usually do, and it’s making me think that I’m misjudging things. But, what’s the worst that can happen? He can say no…and there might be SOME awkwardness, but I figure that’s better than sitting around bashing my head into the desk for not having the guts to ask!
Obsessively yours,
M XD

Well, parents are tricky. Even if they SAY they trust you, there's always that voice in the back of their head. I would know.
LOL I THINK it's Levy, not Levi. But yeah, I don't know who would, but actually, I would want my daughter to tell me if she had sex for the first time, so I guess I get that. I don't think I'd want the gory details like Len gave, but I think I'd want to know. Dude, it's JD all over again! You have a gay, hot professor! lol I guess now you just need a Marcus (we wish, eh?).
Oh wait, maybe you HAVE found a Marcus! XD That's great! Keep me updated, Private! BTW, what class is that?
I think you should go for it. It DOES sound like cues to me - I mean, even if he didn't ask you directly, he might have been hoping that you would say "Oh, you want some company?/Do you wanna grab something with me?" (BTW, Zombieland was freaking HILARIOUS!)
YES. He;s trying to figure out if you have him in the "friend zone" or if you really wanna hang. And even if in the end he doesn't want to date, these little hang-outs aren't really dates, so you guys can't get riled up over them.
If you mention something FIRST ("Oh, I really wanna see 'Saw IV'" - for example) then you're leaving the ball in his park. If he replies with "Yeah, I wanna see that too," you then say "wanna go on ______?" If he agrees, great. He gets extra points if he looks up the times for you. This is all VERY non-consequential. I know it's all easier said than done, but it's a lot easier this way. Later, if he feels vibes from you, maybe he'll ask you out. Or maybe he wants to see how your non-date goes first.
OMG, don't apologize. I know exactly how you feel. When I was single, I freaked too. I actually had this really hot guy interested in me (I felt the same) a few years ago, when Bryan and I were on a break (we weren't married then) but just when things were getting interesting, we both decided that we were both hung up on our exes, so nothing happened, but the whole time, I was spazzing over what to do. And unlike you, I had no girlfriends, because I've been out of school for a long time, and honestly, I don't get along with girls often. (I know, that's odd for a bi woman to say) The problem is that most girls here in Miami are skanks and totally fake, and all they care about is money and The Hills. So I don't often talk to girls. Girls like YOU I can totally get along with. :]
I don't think you're misjudging because you're OVERconfident. Something about being out of high school is very liberating, and you're just starting to get some confidence. So enjoy it! Meh, don't think about him saying no - just treat it like a night out with a friend. Just remember, if he goes for the kill (a kiss, lol) then it was a date to him.
Ah, I get to live vicariously through you. LET ME KNOW WHAT HAPPENS!!!
Curiously yours,
R
