The friend request to Doctor Hottie has officially been sent! In response to my message on the health site, she said, “Thank you for letting me know. Good luck with everything. Take care.” 

Was the “take care” a sort of a brush-off, even though she didn’t tell me not to contact her on Facebook, or was she just being polite and professional? I mean, I suppose that because it is a health site, after all, she can’t just say, “Sure, no problem. See you there!” 

Guess I’ll find out soon enough. At least I hope so anyway. All I’ll be able to tell is if she accepts or denies it. If the request still says it’s pending, I won’t know if she’s ignoring it or didn’t get it, but I wouldn’t be surprised if she didn’t get it. I was never joking when I said I really think something up there goes out of its way to keep me away from those I lust for, especially if they live near me. Not sure why, though, when all it has to do (assuming it’s all-powerful) is just make sure we never meet in person again. Really, what difference would it make if she was just 5 minutes away from here if I could never see her again other than online? 

Wonder how she felt when she read my “Dear John” message? Was she happy? Bummed out? Indifferent? Wish I could say she was thrilled because she would prefer to be my buddy than my doctor, but I know better, LOL. Chances are the request will remain pending and unseen forever. If not, denied. Those would be my first two guesses anyway, even if there’s always room for a tiny shred of hope for me to be pleasantly surprised.

Alison just told me that a friend request can still appear as pending even if it’s been denied. Wow. I didn’t know this. Eh, I don’t expect her to get and accept the request, but I can’t say I didn’t at least click the “add friend” button and try. 

How did Andy become so damn forgetful and so dumb? Really, he seems way more forgetful than I’ve ever been at my worst and I just get so tired of having to go over the same damn things with him over and over again. On Wednesday I told him I had an appointment and the next day he asked where I went. I told him should rethink using full names on Ask because the site is Googlable and could lead people to us that we’d rather remain hidden from. Less than 24 hours later he says he dreamed extensively of Shelley R, spelling out her last name. 

Sometimes I don’t know if he just doesn’t pay attention (he admits he’s no fan of reading and would prefer pictures), has something wrong with him that makes him seriously forgetful, or if he’s just doing it to annoy me. He has done that in the past. No matter how many times I tell him I’m not interested in the graphic details of his daily dumps, I have to hear them anyway. He’s a genuine opposite-doer who loves to rebel. It’s part of why I try to appear unfazed when he does something that I at least suspect is done to try to annoy me. If I let him know it bothers me, he’ll do it some more. Makes me wonder at times just how true of a friend he really is.
