Much ado about nothing?
Got a call out of the blue from an old girl friend whom I haven’t seen in quite some time. It was really nice catching up with her and it turns out she’s moving to Oklahoma which isn’t all that far from where I’m currently living. The idea of getting together at some point was floated. Under most circumstances you might think that would be unalloyed good news, and it mostly is, but this is a girl friend that might qualify as a ‘girl friend’ so there’s a degree of AKWAAAARD there kinda sorta.We went to college together – which isn’t the cliché ‘experimenting with my sexuality in college’ as I was in my 40’s and she was in her 30’s when we went to college. Well hell, maybe it was and I was just a late starter. I was in the middle of my divorce and we were hanging out a lot and one night we wound up kissing in my kitchen and things went from there. We actually went on a ‘date’ which was a lot of fun but didn’t do the same kind of flutter a date with a guy produces. I moved to another part of the state and we drifted apart except for Facebook – that kind of thing.
Anyway here we are and I’m all like, ‘what does this mean? Does it mean anything? Do I want it to mean anything?’ My husband is a huge help – and no help at all. “Anything you want to do as long as you tell me all the details after,” said with a leer and a wink. While I appreciate beyond believe his allowing me this space and showing me this degree of trust, it ain’t helping my decision any. Likely much ado about nothing but oh my!
