Mobile Musing

Currently sitting outside in the sun, on the front patio of a mexican restaurant drinking a nice cold beer. (don't you hate me?) I'm about to meet LF along with a few friends for drinks prior to the upcoming Timbers game.

Got word that SR is leaving town on a cruise for 2 weeks on Saturday morning. It will be a nice reprieve while I reflect on my situation with her.

Yesterday I had lunch with LF as well as met her for pick-up soccer that evening. Later that night I met SR for drinks while we watched some public reading performances.

At the performances we were to meet with SR's friend D, along with D's friend Barry. Personally I do not like Barry as he is a bit older than I (40-45 or so) and has a tendency to like to hang out with younger (20-25 or so) women. It just seems weird. That along with the fact that he doesn't respect their personal spaces. He tends to be touchy-feely with them. Always going in for that lingering hug that lasts just a bit too long, giving them that leering look of "the dirty old man".

Now this is just the impression that I get, and like I said, it is just a personal view of mine. Well, I let D know my thoughts on him, as she was at the bar and then just let me know that he was on his way. She immediately appeared upset that I said my view, so I followed up with a comment that I would be OK with him coming.

Instead, D ended up calling Barry and leaving with hIm to attend a different event. Pretty unfortunate response I thought, as that reaction is more like high school than adulthood. But to each their own.

SR then acted disappointed in D's actions and stated to me (this is after D left) how D and I would never get along. To a point, I think she is correct. I have a short patience with people who are not mature, and D continuously acts as such. D is also very protective of SR, as D does thing ssuch as "friending" the other myspace acquaintences of mine. For nafarious reasons I suppose, or to "keep tabs" on me.

Rightly so, I guess as friends do watch out for friends. SR and I have been open with each other though and no mention of exclusivity has gone on. But D wouldn't understand how we have worked things out.

So tonight I'm meeting LF for the game. Tomorrow I will be meeting SR before she leaves, and Sum just got back into town from Morrocco.

I will keep you posted.
