So I've Met Someone...Part I

You have all been wondering why I haven't blogged lately. I know I have been letting some of you down. Well Its been a combination of no crazy dates, since my hiatus from the online dating pool and my busy busy real world life.  So let me fill you in. 5 weeks ago I met Mario. He was friends with my mutual friends. Conveniently, after a night of fun and booze I find myself locked out of my friends place, where I am suppose to be crashing, while my wallet, keys and all other belongings are locked inside. My friend is off on her current boy's boat. So I'm walking back from the bars with Mario and his friend who's a girl, we will call her Yoyo. Yoyo is explaining to me how she is secretly in love with Mario etc. etc. and I am feeling like a locked out 3rd wheel and am telling the pair that I am about to call cab to meet up with my girl friend and her boathouse boy.  Once we are back to Mario's apartment, wwouldn't you know, as soon as Yoyo goes to the bathroom Mario starts to make out with me.  This is all really confusing, especially after the hours of yummy drinks that have been consumed. I want to escape the situation. Yoyo is complaining how she is allergic to Mario's cat and needs to leave and is indicating that she wants him to come with her. I'm declaring that im calling a cab and Mario says hes coming with me! Yoyo stomps out of the apartment and slams the door behind her and Mario quickly lounges for me. I tell him I am confused. I thought they were a couple and feel a little trapped. He tells me its too late to go to the boat and we should just stay at his place.  Now I guess I didn't mention, Mario is a hot, Italian, Hot, successful guy. SO I stayed.  He explained that he hadn't slept with Yoyo in at least a few weeks and that she is just his best friend. At the time that was okay with me. Where else was I going really? So I spent the night half deflecting his moves to seduce me and half having fun with him. Turns out we had a bit in common. Sometime in the morning he asked me to be his girlfriend, but I think this was a feeble attempt to try and get me to sleep with him. We even called his dad from bed because, as it turns out his dad had made his fortune in a business very similar to one of my own ventures. Of course, in the morning my girlfriend and her boatboy were out of contact. Both of their cells off.

I had no choice but to spend the day with Mario and our other friends Surfing. I have to say this made the whole morning-after awkwardness go away. He was stuck with me. So we surfed all day. Made out in the water. Walked along the beach as he gave me sea shells and went to lunch after. Which he treated me to. It was a great day and I was really feeling him.

Mario called me later that week to say hi and then got off the phone quickly...
