New Guy T

It only takes about a month for me to post something new it seems. Still can't figure out why that is. I don't remember the last thing I posted, so I'll just hit the ground running from what's been going on lately.

So, I started seeing a really nice guy. We'll call him T. I met him online via one of those gay dating websites. He actually messaged me first, which was surprising because he was very cute in his pics. We started chatting and after a few messages he asked me where I get my haircut. Kinda random, but I said where. He said he was there on New Years Eve getting his cut as well and he recognized me. SO RANDOM! I remember sitting and waiting forever and a very cute, well-dressed boy walking in and sitting right beside me for like 10 minutes. I also remember catching glances of him in the mirror and turning red when i thought that the barber was fucking up my hair. He did cut it much shorter than I asked him to, but he managed to make it look good and now I'm kinda happy with it. But I was mostly embarrassed because of the cute guy sitting in the chair next to me. It was so funny that I ended up hearing from him nearly a week later online.

We've only met up twice so far. No funny business or anything. Just coffee and conversation for the first date and then we went shopping in Soho this weekend. He works in fashion, so I'm slightly intimidated by how well he dresses. He's quite good-looking as well (not sure if I've mentioned that), so I feel slightly out of my league. Just slightly. But he's really nice and seems interested. We'll see where it goes. Unfortunately he's heading out of the country next week. And of course this week I have a deadline at work that's on Sunday. He leave's on Monday. :( I don't know if I'll get to see him again before then. I think he'll be gone for a week max, but still. It'll be two full weeks of not seeing him. I could prob get him to come meet me for dinner or coffee down here and I'd just take a break from work, but I'd like to really hang out. Mostly I want to get him somewhere that isn't a crowded Starbucks and finally kiss him. Hehe. Or at least hold his hand. Something! Don't want to accidentally drift into the friend zone or anything. I think he may be somewhat conservative (as conservative as gays can get at least) and doesn't take things too quickly. Or maybe I'm not flirting hard enough. ;)

So that's hopefully going to lead somewhere. It's not very often that I'm genuinely excited about a guy. And when I am, it doesn't seem to go very far past the first date. Go figure.

Not too much else going on right now. Work is going to suck this week. But I've mentioned that already. It makes trying to have a social life very difficult sometimes. I've been doing movie nights with Doctor lately, the guy from New Years Eve. I just go up to his apartment and bring a bottle of wine and a movie and that's that. He just wants to be friends, so I'm cool with that for now. He's kinda dorky and silly. Sweet (and really handsome) guy. He wanted me to come over this week, but I don't know when I'll be able to. T is more of a priority for obvious reasons.

Well, I'm off to bed. I would say that I'll try to post more often, but I don't want to make any promises that I can't keep. Haha.
