No More Emotional Investment in Crushes = Sanity!

I guess I should update you about the "There is this Guy" post...

Tyler is just a friend... well I hope we are at least friends. He has been weird and hasn't responded to emails lately, but whatev. He is a guy and when they are only interested in being friends or acquaintances, I don't think they invest in more communication than socially necessary. I figure he doesn't like me by his obvious lack of communicating. I really don't have a problem with  him not liking me though.

Thankfully this getting older thing, I'm not worried about it. It's an odd feeling to change from wanting to be liked by a specific guy a few years ago, to being okay with it, when that specific guy doesn't like me. Don't get me wrong, I still want to be liked by the right guy, at the right time, it's just that I'm not emotionally invested in "crushes" or potential "crushes" like I used to be. It's all kinds of refreshing.

p.s. Today (September 30) I realized why Tyler might not be responding... maybe he has read ze blog! If that is the case Tyler, don't worry, I won't think you like me now if you actually respond. Just so ya know. lol.

  1. Did you ever give Tyler your blog address in the past?? People were always "warning" me that maybe all these date boys would actually read my blog. But I didn't see how they would every possibly find it. But either way, so what, right? :) Have you ever read the book, "He's Just Not That Into You?" It's better than the movie-- Anyway, it helped me get over dumb crushes. I know the feeling of the "refreshing" post-crush phase. good luck!

  2. Bree, I love that you comment! Seriously! ;) and no to giving him the blog info, but it's posted on facebook. I'm okay telling guys about it, it just didn't actually come up whenever we were together. Probably because we were always with other people. I usually warn them when I write about them, but it just didn't happen with him. I do think it's a good idea to tell them. So far, all of them know about it, except Hot Man and maybe Tyler? And no about the book, I just kind of accepted the fact that if I have to do all the initiating, he isn't into me, this last year. Only after years of stupidity and chasing the guy. It is really nice and to be honest I don't really know if I did have a crush on him. The potential crushing was there, but it just never really happened... There is my sign I guess. I'm not that into him either. lol.
