Online Friendship Blog 5

His name is Jeramie. He's the 19 year old Puerto Rican that lives in the same state as I do that I've been texting.

I've never had a "rebound" person, but sometimes I kind of worry that Jeramie is that person. Literally yesterday I was moping and then Jeramie was all: relax, things will get better.

And then I felt better!

Okay, feeling better was a little more complicated than that. There was some back and forth, but I don't feel like getting into the nitty gritty details.

Anyway, we have a phone call date and a movie date this week. But I told him that I don't think I can handle being in a relationship right now and that I don't want him to expect to have a relationship with me. He seemed to understand.

I like him though. He's not like Marek in the sense that...Marek was a flirty texter. Not all the time but he was generally...forward.

Jeramie is kinda more reserved, a little nervous maybe?

Within like a week Marek was using endearments and calling me cute and adorable...he was all over the place.

With Jeramie, we're literally just texting. He's made it clear that he likes talking to me though.

But I like that Jeramie isn't coming off so strong. It's not so intense and overwhelming and scary, it's just nice.

I like him.

Then there's the Mexican 20 year old that I've been talking to. We may meet up at the end of the month (in public). Just to hang out and eat. Super casual.

Although I suspect that if I was older it wouldn't be such a casual encounter.

I also traded numbers with the party animal that goes to college. He's funny. I texted him once but then I got busy studying and I haven't texted him since. I don't know if I even want to text him again though. Too much texting!!

That's it though. Only three guys now.

There was this cool skater dude that I met but I guess he wasn't interested in texting me because I gave him my number but he never texted me. It's too bad. He was nice to talk to as well.

I'm kinda nervous and excited about Jeramie though. I'll just have to see what happens. And be more careful with my heart this time :3
