One of my exboyfriends contacted me by email and wanted to reconnect. Okay, I'll bite. We didn't have an ugly break-up, in fact I couldn't remember why we broke up at all. And, I had often wondered where he was and how he was doing. So I wrote back.
I invited him over to join me at the track early one Saturday morning and then cancelled in the wee hours of the morning before he was supposed to stop by. Not for any particular reason, just didn't feel like hanging out. Of course, he took it gingerly but expressed what I believed as sincere disappointment so we rescheduled.
Again, the track. I figured we would walk, talk, have a light breakfast and he could be on his way by noon so that I could get on with my day. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw him. It was like being with an old friend, not an old lover. He made a few romantic gestures, but I told him, that I'm just not in that place with him yet.
After our walk, while I fixed some fruit and toast he set-up my iPhone that had been sitting in the box on my coffee table, researched brackets so that he could mount my flat screen, thus securing him a next visit and was just a delight to be around.
Well he was back again Saturday, we went to Lowes to get a new shower head for my bathroom shower, had coffee and pastries at Starbucks, then when we go to my house he installed the shower head and downloaded some old school CDs on to my iPhone. All-in-all I kninda like having him around.
I'm not sure what the future holds for us, but he sure is working his way back in to the more than handyman zone.
I'll keep you posted. Smooches!
