Talks are going well with paramedic. The lucky dog is in San Francisco this week. He gets bonus points for keeping in touch while away. We are going to meet and go to 6 flags next week. Looking forward to that.

Saw RG a few times last week. He wants to continue the friendship. Went to Mystic with him and had a good time. Ended up in a compromising position with him Thursday night. Nothing happened because he put a stop to it. So we talked. His religious beliefs prevent him from a physical relationship with me. Thats ok with me. But this info should have come out a long time ago. So we talked a few times. He still wants exclusive but casual. I tried to explain how that puts me in a weird middle position.

Honestly I think casual and non exclusive is the best way to go.

Friday was hell. I was worn out and teary eyed and emotionally beat to a pulp. Then I went to work to find out they just had a crash. The aircraft was still on its nose with the crash crew out there. We were busy and had to deal with our normal traffic and the crash at the same time. So by the end of the day I was worn out. My job is slowly killing me.

I told RG that I needed a few days without thinking of the mess with him. So he left me alone Sat and Sun. I got DD12 back from camp Sat and spent the evening with her. Then we had a party for her on Sunday. Played WII and saw Dark Knight. It was a good break for me and nice to spend time with just family.

Talked more with Brian last night. He is starting to see why this wears on me so much. I did get some answers from him but I have more questions. So I sent him an email with my concerns and said just think about it for a while and we will talk next time we get together.

Laurie,

I'm glad you're having fun with the medic. RG should JUST be friends, since he cannot offer you ANYTHING with his religious beliefs... then why put yourself into a position where you're "compromised" again?

No such thing as exclusive and casual to me. That's "Sh*t or get off the pot" nonsense to me!!!

100% agreed here - you will keep hitting the same road block with RG and you won't have your heart open for a great guy like medic. I would vote "friendship on hold til feelings are gone" for RG

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

Yeah, you'd think that at 46 years old I would have learned that lesson. But no, I keep trying. My problem is I am a sucker and have a hard time just saying no. Plus RG does this thing to me that I called 'sucking me in' with his charm, good looks and personality. It gets me everytime.

Maybe he has a personality disorder?

Hummm. I never suspected that. I know he is not self centered at all. But what signs do I look for?
