"It's Raining Men"

Have you ever noticed that there are periods in your life where for a brief time, you could be dropped into the middle of a female locker room and still walk away having met a member of the male sex?!? Personally, I would like to figure out the cause for my apparent sex appeal during these points so that I could continue to use it, even if on a smaller scale, during the not so much a man magnet parts of my life. Nonetheless, I have obviously been named the dish du jour on the buffet of love, ok well maybe just lust, for the time being and the males are lining up!

It all started last week when Mr. High School Crush entered back into the picture, in the meantime I have also noticed more guys holding doors open, smiling, and saying hi, then I seemed to meet a few more guys than normal while out on Saturday night, and today when I came home from work there was an instant message from Mr. Beach Stud himself. For those of you who haven't heard the story of Mr. Beach Stud, we met my sophomore year of high school (his junior year) through a friend of a friend. He lived in Wilmington, NC at the time and had a girlfriend (yes, I am finally beginning to see the pattern), so nothing ever developed romantically. Almost every night though we would take turns calling one another where we flirt quite ridiculously and talk about almost everything under the sun. We would occasionally meet in Raleigh when our schedules permitted, but things were always platonic with the exception of the rather intense flirting. Mr. Beach Stud took some time off and worked in order to pay for college after high school, and I would hear from him every now and then. I was out in Raleigh with some friends about five years ago, and we ran into each other. We met up the following weekend and had our first date, where we also had our first kiss. The kiss was everything I thought it would be and more, and I literally felt as if I was floating on a cloud as I drove home. As my luck would have it, Mr. Beach Stud appeared to fall off the face of the planet right after our date, and I wouldn't hear from him for almost two years, at which point he would then crush me by telling me he was engaged! At first, I ignored his e-mails because quite frankly I just couldn't handle another guy not picking me even just to date, let alone marriage, and then eventually the e-mails stopped. I am sure that you can imagine my surprise to find his message today after all of that! My guess is that either the wedding never happened and Mr. Beach Stud is now once again single, or the wedding did happen and after a few years of marriage he is bored and looking for a fling. I guess that I shouldn't be surprised considering my knack for playing the Dirty Mistress role lately!

Just so you know, I did walk away from the computer and spend about 20 minutes trying to keep myself entertained before curiosity got the better of me and I looked him up on Facebook. I know, I know, but a girl has to enjoy the floods while they last because the drought is sure to follow in another week or so as it always seems to do!!!
