I went to the Mexican Brunch Fundraiser and there must have been over two hundred and fifty people there. It was a great turn out and raised a lot of money. I met a couple I know and we enjoyed our conversation above the throng. There were a lot of people there that I talked to and then got asked to go to a rubber duck race in Newport Beach, after the brunch , by another couple. I'm so glad that people actually want me around and don't seem to consider me a fifth wheel.
It is so nice to be able to do what you want with no one to answer to. Should I decide not to go home I don't, or if I want to, I can. I decided to meet this couple in Newport and stayed until after the duck races. I returned home about three pm.
Prior to leaving the parking lot at the Mexican Brunch, I had a phone call from a young man that had planned on meeting me today for coffee. I decided, even before I got his phone call that no way was I going to meet him, First of all he is only thirty four although emailing back and forth he is pretty sharp mentally and professes to be a writer of musical lyrics and poems. That's about the only thing we would have in common and able to talk about. I had told him I could be his muse. He was fun to spar with and hear the younger side of things. He was originally from the Chicago area but thirty four, come on.
Why in the world a man that young (question the man part) would want to be with an older lady is beyond me. I have decided that I do not need to be a Grandma Cougar, and any encouragement on my part, even by chatting has to stop. So I will block him on my computer and not answer his text or phone calls should he call. He does live about sixty miles away, so that is good. He certainly should be able to find a girl near his age. He is a good looking guy, big and seems to have a good personality and he should be able to find someone without any problem. Just not me.
I keep wondering why I hear from so many younger men. I have a feeling that the women that are younger come across as to needy and it scares these guys off. Either that or they have way to much baggage in their life. I'll never know for sure.
I did hear, again, from the man where I ended up buying the wine that evening. He texted me and was upset and mad at me. He waited a couple days to contact me. Very funny! Like it was my fault. In a way it might have been, as I didn't really read the text I received from him, as I was driving, but even if I had, I would have thought he was kidding. Poor injured party that he was he lit into me for embarrassing him.....the nerve of some people is just amazing. Then he added that he really wanted to have a relationship....good Lord, men are delusional.
Off to relax and watch t.v.
