To wrap my head around this....or maybe I can't
I don't try to do this. This semester, it seems that guys keep falling into my lap. Relaying the stories is interesting, yet I seem to get hung up on my current situation. I haven't had this kind of freedom or so many options before.
Last Wednesday I had an almost and it is still hanging in the air. Long story short, I ran in to N and a friend of his at a pub. I said hello and they came to sit with us. My American friends left one by one and I found myself with N and his friend, AF. N left to pick up his friend from the train station, leaving AF and I talking...flirting...that. I wonder if this is going anywhere, but the bar closes at 1 and we leave. They try to catch the last tram and I get them to head in the direction of chez moi. When parting N bizes me (he's English, this is not natural); AF starts with a handshake and then decides to biz (also English). No phone number exchange between AF and I. N has mine and I his. My game: let this be. Ironically, both are work colleagues, therefore there are possibilities for meeting and soon. However, I'm confused about which one is interested. I don't want to make any decisions.
Friday evening I get "kicked" out of the house and head to chez J for pre-gaming. I get there ridiculously early, due to the massive amounts of people at my place. I meet his roommate, JS. The night is filled with alcohol. Others show up, J's girlfriend MW gets hammered and passes out. People leave to catch trams.... I talk about crashing there out of laziness. Soon it is J, JS, MW and I. JS asks if I want to go to a discotheque, as planned earlier in the evening. We walk into town, as we have missed the last tram. We get to the place, he pays my cover charge and buys me a drink. Drinks lead to dancing, leading to making out, leading to crashing at my place...
Sunday night he calls to make sure this isn't serious and that we are being discrete. He wants to go out with me this week. Still, I felt like I was being used, even though I want nothing serious and discretion.
So to tally and make myself feel a little better (or worse, depending on your take) 1. GG (aka French lover) 2. JE (american in program- no strings attached) 3. CB (2 week fling, but potentially going to visit him in Geneva) 4. JS (american in different subset of program- no strings attached) 5. N 6. AF
But in reality, I can scratch N and AF because nothing has happened. CB can be out, because that will just be a weekend. Right now he is a former fling with possibility of rekindling. So my count is back up to three again. How do I feel about this?
Is this what happens when a girl gets out of a three year relationship and finds herself with options and not being able to say no? But why do I have to? Am I so conditioned by monogamy that I feel guilty. If nothing else, I'm being like a guy...none of the emotional attachment, merely fun. Except that the emotions are creeping in. And have been...
I've been wondering what I've done this semester. It seems I have found it: classes, going out, watching american tv online, and managing my guy endeavors. Maybe I have turned into AC.

Valentine's Day
For the first time in 3 years I spent Valentine's Day with no obligations or pressure. Instead, I had a weekend of parties ahead of me and 3 guys in my back pocket.
I went to a work thing-which I hadn't done in awhile. Very little members and mostly staff and so that turned out to be a bit like Thanksgiving in terms of AC. This time I knew better. I wasn't bitter or lonely, I was smart. I could flirt back, simply because it was fun, and I could humor him. But there was another option, a new teacher, N, also from England. I'd met him once or twice and we chatted for awhile. Later when the group went to the Vert he spent a lot of time talking to me away from everyone else. He recommended a book to me and we exchanged phone numbers. I didn't need it to go anywhere, but if it did I wasn't going to turn it down. Perhaps I'm getting bored, but I prefer thinking that he just intrigues me. I had thoughts of him being my escort home after the bar closed. Instead, AC (after throwing out another hint of something again...) vanished and N, being a good friend, apparently found him and took him home.
So now I have another prospect. I suppose it is never good to get involved with colleagues, but this seems harmless because I could behave as I do with JE.
Who by the way was at a party the night before and we were hinting to our involvement. Alcohol or the want of attention or something....I didn't feel like caring. No one probably remembers.
So today as I spend the afternoon relaxing I find myself contemplating having coffee with N. I will make no moves, mostly because I don't know if this is even good. And also because I think I'm turning into AC....
