So I met someone recently who caught my eye almost instantly. Only the more I get to know him, the more I realize he resembles someone from my past that I had an enormous crush on and still makes me melt when I think of him then. And just like back then, I seem to be the only person at the moment who appreciates his looks and talent. I suppose you can gather he is more or less my "type" of guy.
What's my type you ask? Well, there was a period when I really liked brooding, independent, slightly narcissistic, slightly eccentric musicians. I guess, a part of me still does, which is fine. There is nothing wrong with keeping your childhood fantasies and interests. This new guy even looks like another one of my past crushes. Tall and lanky with longish hair. He has a bit of a rocker vibe, not too punk, kinda preppy, kinda pretty. He's very anal and knows he is popular but at the same time is a little insecure as well. Oh yeah, and he cooks, which is different. And I don't mean he knows how to make noodles and fried rice, but he actually holds a knife well.
And then my sister goes and bursts my bubble insisting his choice of outfits indicate he is probably gay. Regardless, I think he is divine. It's nice to have someone in my life again, even if at the moment he does not know I exist. Sigh. School girl crushes, I guess you're never too old for them.
