First Post of the Day.

A few interesting things: I'm having drinks with the lesbian I was dumped for sometime in the next two weeks. For those strangers who have stumbled upon this blog, I am female and straight. So now you may be asking how was I dumped for a lesbian? You got me. I have no idea how or why it happened but it did. The strangest part of this whole thing is that due to this horrible, ugly and dramatic break-up I lost three of my closest friends at UNCA. I hated the lesbian. Hated her. Then I moved to Charleston and realized that although I was deeply hurt by the situation it really had nothing to do with me. It was about her and my ex-boyfriend. They had feelings for each other and that was that. I reconciled with her and no one else. I find it strange that of all of the people who were involved, it's her that I'm friends with. Not close friends by any means, but friendly.

Another interesting thing: I have an older brother. His friends from high school are essentially my extended family. I feel like I grew up with 6 older brothers because of the amount of time they were around. Now that Kit's on leave, I am seeing a lot of his two heterosexual life mates (who happen to be roommates). One of them, I'll call him J, has had a crush on me since high school. Well, last night while working in the box office, I get a call from J. He asks me to settle a bet he had with my brother and then proceeds to ask if I was still seeing "that guy". I told him no, and then he goes into this Freudian diatribe about how he thinks that Matt looks exactly like this kid, Matt Burnette, whom I grew up with. I then made the mistake of the night and told him I think Matt (the ex) looks a lot like him (J). Shit. He then, yet again, points out the obvious fact that we are both single. Is it so wrong that I find it incredibly awkward to even fathom seriously dating one of my brother's best friends? I could never sleep with J because he'd talk about it to all of my brother's other close friends. I could never kiss him or show affection towards him in the presence of Kit (or any of my adopted brothers for that matter). Am I wrong in thinking this?
