Soooooo...
Around 10 years ago, I met a mega hot Blonde Aussie at a play we were both at.
We hit it off right away.
I played with her a bit, and specifically DID NOT ask/get her number. I actually left ahead of her, and chatted up outside with some other people I knew.
She ran out looking for me, and asked me for my number (I did not have to initiate...after-all...I am me...hahaha)..
A couple days later, I called her to hang out...
BUT...
Right away...she wanted to switch to "email only"..which was really odd.
When I asked straight into why...she said it was because she "only just wants to be friends". She furthered by telling me that talking on the phone, only leads guys on.
oh...
great...
Not really sure why I kept talking to her...probably because she was really smoking.
We hung out a few times, but no matter HOW WELL things felt like they "could" have progressed...it was always "no, I am only looking for friendship".
I pretty much dropped it after that.
She was back and forth between Australia and the USA...but EVERY time she came back into town...she wanted to meet and hang.
Alright..whatever.
After a few months...of "casually hanging out"...with her NEVER wanting me to call her or chat on the phone (think I tossed her # anyway by that point)..it just became silly.
Again...she reiterated that she is "only looking for friendship".
After that, I did not bother with her...
6 years pass...never really cared much after...but then 4 weeks ago...she sends me a Facebook Friend request. We start chatting over messenger...
She tells me she moved in town permanently.
She was living in Hawaii...had a long term BF...he was a drug addict...abusive...moved back to LA.
Wants to reconnect.
I was flirting with her quite a bit, and she was flirting back...but again...this is EXACTLY how we were before.
We decide we should get together and meet/chat/catch-up.
Right after the convo ended...I thought to myself..."what am I doing with time?"
This is a girl who:
a) won't chat on the phone
b) has told me numerous times, she is only interested in friendship
c) has guys all over her.
We are both 41 now...and sure...it's cool to hang out with a hot Aussie...but for what?
I find that there always seems to be 2 points of view when it comes to similar situations:
1) keep the friendship...use her as a pivot to one of her friends (though I have NEVER met any of them)... keep HER in the friendzone.
or
2) stop wasting my time.
After reflecting on how the "relationship" has been...I really cannot see ANYTHING going beyond what already has been...and I really do not care as much as I did 10 years ago.
I am correct in completely walking away on this one?
