It's been a while since I've posted. I have noticed a few things changing.
First, I'm having dreams about my exes. The dreams correlate with my exes' personalities. Dreams of the high-sex-drive one are sexual, the dreams of the comfort/financial ex are about buying a home. No dreams of my first ex, though. Shannon, do you remember if letting go of exes is part of this stage?
Second, I'm getting way more comfortable just flirting with women. Last Tuesday, in quick succession, I was out with my son at GNC and Jamba Juice. In both places, I had the female employees eating out of my hand.
At Jamba Juice, I chatted with the cashier about a custom drink, and had the shake-maker ask me about it. I told her if it sucks, she has to remake it. She was laughing and obviously enjoying our conversation.
At GNC, I wanted a specific amino acid and didn't know where to find it. I walked up to the cashier, and asked her to help me. She was new, and didn't know exactly where to find it. I teased her about being in the wrong store, and also gave her information about the bottle in case that helped her locate it. She asked me about the purpose (mood) and said she tried St John's Wort. I explained that L-Theanine works differently from SJW, and recommended she try it. During the checkout, I teased her about testing her math skills when figuring out the change. "Your change is eight cents, which the computer told me." I rebutted that we'd have to test her counting skills, and she was chuckling so much she had trouble counting.
Even better than flirting with these girls is that my son was there to see it. Not because I feel the need to impress him, but because I want him to learn it.
