A walk in the...DOG PARK?!

So, last month I met someone at a DOG PARK, without a DOG! Across the street from where I live, there's this dog park and I was meeting up with a guy friend of mine so I decided to sit on a bench by the park and wait for him. I was kind of dressed up a bit fancy too, especially for a dog park so i was getting a bit of attention. So as I'm sitting there, I see this adorable little pup being put down by me and fell in love instantly. I looked up at his owner and noticed he wasn't too shabby himself. He was tall, blue eyes, nice arms...not bad. So, the pup comes over to me and I started to pet him and smiled up at the stranger. We started chatting about his dog, it was a shit-zu (I love those)and he told me the pup's name as well as his. His pup was just a little baby, 4 months old and absolutely adorable. So, in the middle of the convo, I'm already sizing this guy up as a "potential". LOL In the middle of the conversation, my friend arrives and I'm thinking "Uh-oh", he going to see this guy come pick me up and he's going to think it's my boyfriend or something! Just my luck! So, I introduce them and at this time I had the guy's pup on my lap as if he were mine. So, I put the pup down and he starts to get ready to leave and I look up to him telling him it was nice to meet him. He walks towards his "fancy" drop top mercedes benz car (which whatever, I'm not into all that-but it's nice) and puts his pup on the passenger side and drives away.

Now, I look over to my friend and said "Gosh, it would have been nice to get his number or something? Maybe he thought you were my man?!" LOL Then he said I should have just asked him and I said "NO WAY!". I'm old-fashioned, I let the guy take the lead if they're interested...unless I couldn't help myself! LOL BUT NO! I wouldn't! Well, the moment passed and a week goes by and my guy friend contacts me telling me that he bumped into the guy at the Dog Park at a gas station. I was like "WHAT?! What'd he say?!" Then he said "I got his number for you". I had two feelings at that point...excited and embarrassed! The guy remembered my friend and my friend told him that I was interested and wasn't sure to ask for his number. I wanted to DIE when he told me that! Whatever, we're all adults...I got over it. LOL I had his number which is a start to possibly something special??? NOT! Boy, was that a HIT & MISS!!!

We decided to meet at the Dog Park for our "first date" or whatever it was. It was cool, I was playing with his lil pup and we were talking about what he does, etc. He was going into the police academy in the summer, so he was taking it easy for now, telling me he also owned some properties, etc. Good for him, I thought. So, from there we went to grab a bite to eat, he dropped me off home and we kissed on the cheek. It was more of an innocent, friendly date...getting to know each other. So, we went on a couple more dates and every night it ended with just a kiss on the cheek. Hmmmm???? I'm thinking...OK...I mean I'm not THAT attracted to him, but I was trying to get to know him for HIM and not base anything on "looks".This totally makes me crack up out loud thinking back because, like I said...only things like THIS would happen to a gal like me. By the way, he took his pup everywhere with him, which I didn't mind because I thought he was the cutest thing! There was actually one time, he didn't bring him and we went to eat at this restaurant and I thought maybe now there wouldn't be any distractions and maybe something more would happen, but nope! He drops me off home and kiss on the cheek! LOL I'm thinking..is this boy shy or something??? I mean, he keeps asking me out and spending time with me. Is he waiting for ME to make the move??? Well, I just brushed it off and thought "Hey, it's nice to take this slow...REALLY SLOW, for a change". Not that I"m a fricken WHORE or anything! LOL

Anyway, one day we went to work out together and we've become more comfortable with each other at this point, so I went back to his place. He said he wanted to work out some more and he had some weights and machines at his place so I was game. He had a nice place, which also had a sauna which was great. He told me I can use it as a part of my exercise routine. So, I was thinking "Whoa! I gotta get naked in a towel in this guy's apartment now." LOL I was a bit shy about it but then again, this boy hasn't made a move on me from the very start, so I stripped down to my undies and wrapped a towel around me. He told me, he'd be in his bedroom while I was getting undressed and to call him when I was done using the Sauna. Okay...this is NOT normal! Wouldn't any guy want to see a gal, with sweat dripping down her body and a towel just barely covering her voluptious body like mine??!!! WHAT THE HELL?! Another "WHY ME?!" moment of course. So, I was done with the Sauna and called out to him and he came to the living room. So, there I was sitting down, sweating and glowing from the heat with my legs crossed, exposing some of my "meat" and the boy is sitting on the other end of the sofa without saying a word! We just started to watch tv and finally I said I was going to change and go home. Okay, we've hung out several times already and really? NOTHING?! Doesn't make sense? Is he gay? Why is he hanging out with me so much? I leave it alone and he drops me off home and ANOTHER kiss on the cheek. OH BOY! I was getting more action from his PUP by now, that has licked me up and dry-humped my leg a couple of times!!!

Well, I wasn't sweating it, just took it for what it was. I thought maybe he was just really reserved and shy, so I was just being the good girl and not reacting to it. So, one night I went out to a club with friends and we were texting each other. It was already late and he sounded all flirty through the text and I was thinking, "WOW! Can it be that he's actually FLIRTING with me???" I entertain it for a bit and we decidded to meet up with each other afterwards. My friend drops me off to his car and there he was waiting patiently for me. He complimented me on my outfit and we went back to his place. His cute lil pup greets us at the door and we both end up on the couch together. For the first time ever, he is sitting really close to me, but still NOT doing anything, just rubbing elbows basically. LOL So, we're watching tv, getting more cozy and comfortable and he actually puts his arm around me. I felt like I was in fricken JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL!!! I'm a grown woman dammit! JUMP ON TOP OF ME OR SOMETHING!!! LOL Okay, not really, but it was nice. We both ended up just knocking out on his couch. I woke up the next morning, feeling a tongue on my neck...of course it was the pup's! I joked and said "Hey, is that you?" He started to laugh as well and I thought that would have broke the ice somehow and hinted that maybe I was open for SOMETHING! So, we continued to watch TV throughout the day, we ordered in food and yeah, that was pretty much it! I started to get ready to go home and you can imagine what I was feeling. So, he drops me off home and yup...another kiss on the cheek. OH MY! So, we say goodnight and basically...that's the last time I heard of him or seen him. I had texted him hello to see how him and his pup were doing and no response...he just disappeared?! What the heck was THAT all about??? Maybe he realized I was more in love with his dog than him! Which now that I think about it...I WAS!!! LOL You're probably thinking "WOW"...your thoughts???
