Confidence is the key!

Some names have been changed :)

I went to a computer party and saw dozens of my old friends and ex girlfriends. Well only 4 ex girlfriends but they are so nice and friendly to each other. I ran into this guy I have known for almost 2 years and he told me Heather was looking for me. Heather was his wife. Well they are splitting up but still living together. She had something in mind :) To shorten this let me just say we spent most of the weekend together in my ex girlfriends apartment (she wasn't there). Stage one: testosterone level woken up after lying dormant for 4 months. The woman I have sort of been seeing for the last month is a nice girl and not like that. Anyway there was a lot of talking between me and the married one. Hours of conversation. Lot of talk about "going for what you want". Saw the other woman a few times. At a baseball game with her I sort of realized she wasn't what I was looking for as a girlfriend but we would be great friends. Had a talk with an interesting woman from the net that same day. Someone that was tired of guys going out with her just because she had a great body. Something I have never done. But started thinking why haven't I? Why would I assume someone with a great look wouldn't have a personality. Then a good friend suprised me by hooking up with the best looking guy from the computer crowd. She was a little depressed for the last few months because she was a little insecure and didn't like the way she looked and had no self confidence and then I gave her a modem and introduced her online to a bunch of friends and then she switches gears and heads right to the top :) One more thing that got me thinking. (hey I am working towards a point here:) That night I decided to go back to my favorite club on the waterfront. Hang out with my DJ friends and have a good time. It's nice to be up in the booth with the dj's you can see alot of people from up there. At one point Mel (dj) waved to a friend of his down on the floor. There were 2 women in front of this guy and they were looking and started waving back. Chuck (light guy) turned on a little spotlight on the dance floor and moved it over on these 2 women to get a better look :) Well one of them was tall, long black hair, great body, beautiful. She looked up and smiled. Something in my mind clicked and with all the mental gymnastics I had been going through in the week before I was headed down to the floor before I realized what I was doing. I did approach this woman and say hi and all that other silly conversation you can get away with in a loud crowded club. Then I went back up to the booth. My mind was racing. What could I do. This woman had guys approaching her left and right. I was looking for a way to stand out. I came up with this real brainy idea. I was going to be myself. Wasn't going to try and impress her just have a little fun. So I want back to the floor and asked her to dance. Thats one thing I do fairly well and we had to dance close because it was so crowded and after a few songs we got off the dance floor and stayed together talking. Ended up talking together till the club closed and I asked for her number and she gave it to me and wanted to go out somewhere the next night! The shock didn't hit me till the I got home. Actually it hit me when I walked her and her friend to her car and she hugged me and kissed me on the cheek. When I called her the next day we decided to meet for a light dinner. We really hit it off good. Went to the movies after dinner. Next day was the 4th. She called me at midnight to tell me she couldn't stop thinking about me. We talked for 2 hours. Found out she was from South America. She is absolutely beautiful. And at dinner a week later she told me she would really like to have me as a boyfriend. Be still my heart. :) Enough of this rambling.
