The internal struggle

I’ve been waiting for today for a long time. I haven’t seen her in so long…something like ten months. There was a spark then, and just arranging for lunch today I can feel that it’s still there. We’d been trying to plan this get together for almost two months since we first reconnected, and an almost sitcom-like string of events made us cancel lunch after lunch. I finally caught up with her again on Tuesday and IMed her, suggesting we get together on Thursday for lunch. She said sure, she’d get back to me to discuss details the next day.

The next day came. She had mentioned how busy she was the previous day, so I didn’t want to interrupt to confirm our plans. So I waited. Staring at her name in my buddy list. IM me dammit! My telekinesis wasn’t working. I hid her name from sight so it wouldn’t taunt me as I tried to focus on my work, but every hour I checked just to make sure she was actually online. And one time I looked…she was gone. Dammit! She wasn’t going to contact me today so why did she say she would?

And the next day, Thursday, the day we had planned for lunch. Still no word from her. That bitch. Seriously, why do I even care? She’s clearly classless and disrespectful and would be horrible in a relationship. I bet she’s terrible in bed too. So why do I care? Why would I care about you, stupid bitchy girl who sucks in bed (and not in the good way)? In fact, I decided that I hate you. I’m going to put every last piece of attraction energy I have and convert it into anger. You suck. It’s noontime and you haven’t IMed me to confirm lunch? Seriously? You’re clearly not the type of girl I want.

Just then, an IM window pops up. It’s her.

“We still on for lunch?” she asks.

“Oh,” I type, “was that today?”
