Freaky Hand Art

So I have a new secret boyfriend. Well secret to some and not to others. But for the purpose of this blog, he will remain secret for now.

I met him through my work and he's just a real sweetheart. My family really loves him. In fact I think it's the first time I've dated someone who enjoys hanging out with my family. Other guys have been good with my parents, but they've been shy or not interested and maybe this is a good thing.

It's a little hard to move on completely from the last boyfriend, and I feel awful b/c it's not like we broke up b/c he was an awful person. It was the distance. And in many respects I'm sure we still love each other. On the other hand, he told me to move on and with much difficulty, in fact, a years worth of difficulty I have finally done so. I mean I actually shaved my head b/c he broke up with me- talk about drastic (that wasn't the only reason, of course, I'm not that spontaneous, but it was the last straw). But he made the choice and in the end he was the mature one about it and I do hope we can remain friends. Good friends. He is an awesome person and he will make some girl very happy one day soon. I know it.

More about the new not-so-secret boyfriend at a later date.

Resolution

Alright so talked with the ex- I'm not sure we fully agree on what happened. But I think more importantly we know that we care about each other. So friends we will remain. Dave was right, I clearly had unresolved issues from when we broke up. Still holding on to something- I guess it was easier to repress then to actually deal with the emotions. But I've had some time- as Omer and I didn't talk for about 2 weeks- and while 2 weeks is not necessarily a hell of a lot of time it is enough to start thinking differently. To start dealing with it all and to really move on and be friends with him.

Exes Smorgasbord

So the ex is in town. My first boyfriend that is. We were together 6 years. Some people might find it strange that I still talk to him, others might find it even stranger that I hung out with him and his girlfriend last night. Then again others might just think your being an idiot. Especially since we broke up like 6 years ago. Crazy I've known the guy 12 years. Anyway it was nice to see him. And actually his girlfriend is really sweet and they make a very cute couple. Lord knows that I have the utmost respect for that girl, dating him ain't easy. Hahaha. Jokes aside he's rought around the edges but has a very good heart and it's nice to see him happy with someone who clearly loves him back.

So literally less then a week and I'm in Pakistan. Balderson is flying with me. Of course he's sitting first class and I'm sitting in what it called Q-class...hmmm.... might be sitting with the cargo from the sounds of it. No matter I sleep through flights anyway. I will be sure to bring lots of sleeping pills and alcohol to ensure that I'm out. The nice thing about him flying with me is 1) I have someone to spend time with at the stop over in Abu Dhabi 2) I will have someone I know with me when I go through the border/customs.

Babar Ali

If you do a google search you will also see that a Babar Ali is the staff scientist for Infrared Processing and Analysis Center (IPAC ) California Institute of Technology and his research activities include * Star Formation * Brown Dwarfs * Miscellaneous

I'm thinking it's not the same person. Just a guess.
