A Single Girl’s Life Pt. 9

Mr. Bartender is amazing and I’m truly into him and I couldn’t wait to begin the New Year off with a bang! I knew Phillip was on his plane and he should be greeting his amazing family to enjoy his holiday and start his new job and life. So I needed to do the same. I kept looking at the box that was sitting on my kitchen table and I wanted to open it but it wasn’t Christmas and that’s a rule I never break!

I was getting ready to meet with some friends since I spent Thanksgiving with my parents so I really didn’t have any plans for the holidays. Christmas Eve was a big traveling day for me, I went to four people’s houses and ate a ton of food and drank like it was going out of style! Than my phone ranged it was Mr. Bartender. He wanting to hang out for a bit and I didn’t decline. It was time to refresh my inner and outer beauty because my man was on his way and I wasn’t looking too pretty!

Mr. Bartender came by my apartment around 11:00pm he brought champagne, Chinese food and a single white rose. What a charmer and him at 25 is something that I have never seen by a man that age. We kissed for about 5 great minutes. I was really enjoying him and his company and I liked him a lot. I was even considering meeting his daughter, which is weird because kids are not something I’m into. We laughed and talked the whole night and it was amazing! At around 7:30 am my phone ranged and I jumped up to realize that we both feel asleep on the couch. I reach for my phone and I answer it without looking I assume it was my parents calling to say “Merry Christmas”! It wasn’t, it was Phillip.

“Hey, Merry Christmas honey! So did you like the gift, I’m surprise you didn’t call me earlier.”
Oh yes the gift I totally forgot about it must have been all that champagne and the drinks prior because I wanted to know what was in this mystery box. “Oh I haven’t opened it yet I will do it now hold on”. I grab the box barely awake and began to unwrap it. I open it and I saw a huge fat diamond ring! I’m speechless my mouth is completely dry from lack of water. I just had no words, I just didn’t know what to say or do. I walked back to the phone and I said “Phillip, thanks it’s beautiful I will ship it back to you after New Years, Merry Christmas”. I hung up and I turned off my cell phone. You may call me a bitch but at that moment I was freaking out!

Mr. Bartender started to move around from the couch and he notice me up and he walked toward me. I put the ring in the box and I started to move it but he noticed! “What did you get”? “Oh nothing special just a pair of earrings from my parents, I have to return it because it was the wrong pair, do you want breakfast?” He grabs the box off the table and opens it. “Wow, gorgeous ring. Someone must really love you because I only bought you this”! He gives me a small box as well. I opened it and it was a ring too! What the hell was going on here!
“It’s a promise ring, not like that one. I want to be more than friends and I promise to make that happen starting in the New Year. But it seems like someone still has your heart Miranda, and I can’t wait to be chosen 2nd place”! He grabbed his coat and kissed me on the forehead. “Merry Christmas honey”!

The same words as Phillip, two freaking rings on Christmas Day and alone to think about it “Merry Freaking Christmas”!

Pt.8
A Single Girl’s Life

Today was the big day and I was nervous as hell. I received two calls from Mr. Bartender and I didn’t answer, I just didn’t know what to say. He has a child and I ‘m not about to be mommy, I mean I don’t even like kids so how would that work. Now my ex wants to have a talk and I’m on the edge of my seat. I was so nervous it was unbelievable!

After work I went home to change and prepare myself for a talk of pain. I put on my sexy lace blouse and my fitted jeans; I figured I should look confident since I didn’t feel it at all. I had to pull out my knee high boots and of course red lip-gloss never hurt anyone.
I wanted to get there before him so I made sure I was there thirty minutes early so I could watch him enter the restaurant. I ordered a glass of red wine and thought about the fun times we did have in our relationship. Before I knew it 45 minutes went by and my ex still wasn’t at the restaurant. I called him and didn’t get an answer. Okay this is very strange since he told me to meet him here. At that moment he walked in the door and I began to have butterflies in my stomach. Was it nerves or excitement, wasn’t too sure but I couldn’t stop shaking. It had been 7 months since I had seen Phillip and he looked really good. He had a glow to him and I was super excited to see him.
We order dinner and did the simple conversation like we were on a first date.

Than the real talk started, “So have you meet anyone Miranda” I just brushed it off and said no.
He looks at me seriously and says “Well I want to tell you I am moving on, I can’t take not being with you or seeing you. I have decided to move back to Nevada with my family. I leave Christmas Eve”. Shocked by this I took a huge gulp of my wine. I mean even though we weren’t together I was comfortable with the fact that he was still 20 minutes from me and now that he would be on the west coast I felt really distant. I didn’t want him to go back to Nevada and I wasn’t sure if him staying was a good idea either. “Oh, wow”! “Did you find a job yet in Nevada”?
“Yes, I start after New Years, I’m excited. I just want to get away from the city it has never been my thing, you know. I only came here because of you. I thought we were going to start our life here”.
That was a jab in my heart, I could tell he was running away and him being in NYC were I was just didn’t feel right for him. He looked hurt and I just didn’t know what to say. “Phillip, I love you a lot that will never change. I wanted us to start a life together as well but I am trying to find myself right now. I didn’t want to end our relationship seven months ago but you took off and ignored me for months and now your back with more breaking news”. I really wanted to be alone and figure things out because I wasn’t sure if I wanted Phillip anymore.
After dinner he handed me a box and said. “I bought this seven months ago and I was planning on giving it to you this Christmas”. I refused but he put it in my big hobo bag and all of the junk that was in it, I would be digging for days.
We said our goodnights for a good ten minutes and he was off in a taxi as I walked to my apartment.
In disbelief of the night Phillip would be a special memory that will always stick with me. As I walked to my front door step there was a bouquet of roses and a huge teddy bear. To my surprise it was from Mr. Bartender. Now my smile was so huge and I was ready to begin this new chapter in my life.

Pt.7

My phone call was a lot of tears and sorry and this and that. “But why the hell was I even on the phone”? Was it because I really wanted him back or was it because I took a glass of wine and drank it so fast that my mind was playing tricks on me. I could blame the wine but the truth was I was lonely.

The reason that my ex and I were over was basically because I hooked up with an ex when we took some time off. I soon found out that he went to college with my ex and they were actually co-workers. I couldn’t believe how that could have happened. My ex John from high school was the love of my life and I thought we would be together forever. As soon as he went to college all of that was over. After I graduated college and landed a great job in NYC I met Phillip we dated for five years and we eventually moved in together. Phillip started a new job at a financial firm and he talked about his co-worker John being his college buddy but I never thought anything. It wasn’t until Phillip and I both decided to take a day off on a Monday so we could enjoy some free time together that everything would fall in to place. Phillip received a phone call from his boss saying he needed to pick up some reports for a client so we rushed to his office. I wasn’t planning on going but he wanted me to see his new firm and meet his co-worker. As soon as I saw John it was over and so was my relationship.

So that’s my story! Phillip couldn’t handle it because John boosted about how he hooked up with his ex (me) and how much I talked about my Phillip and how he couldn’t stand him even though he never meet him. John even went as far as saying I still love Miranda and I plan to get her back. Phillip told John he should fight since he had those strong feelings. Drama isn’t even the word!

Phillip explained that he knew we were broken up at the time but the fact was he was so close to John that he couldn’t even look at him anymore. Phillip wanted to meet up after work tomorrow and I agreed. What will this meeting be, I wondered. Could I even go back knowing that I had always thought about John even when I was with Phillip? Not sure what the outcome would be but I made sure I said a goodnight pray because I needed God to intervene!

Pt. 7 of A Single Girl's Life

Mr. Bartender's party was rocking and his friends were totally cool. I mean at first I felt a bit out of place since they were all in their mid twenties and here I was about to be 31 and partying like I was back in college. But I had a blast and he was so amazing that I had to give in to his gentleman tactics.

Mr. Bartender was so into me and he really made me feel like a princess, I didn't understand why he was single he seemed so perfect. After our crazy weekend together I thought I would invite him back to my place to watch a movie just so we could just chill since we both were going to have a crazy work week. During the movie his cell phone ranged and a picture came up on his phone of a little girl. The person calling was Rachel. He answered it and excused himself from the living room. At this point I mute my T.V. because I was trying to be noisy. He was whispering very low and the only words I could make out were "I'm sorry sweetie I will see you soon".

Okay so he had a chick on the side and she was a bit upset with him because she hadn't seen him. No big deal because I wasn't his girlfriend and he wasn't my man. When he came back in the door I asked him was everything ok. He looked a bit sad and just shook his head yes. Confused by his reaction I let it go. Ten minutes later he said he had to go because it was getting late. I knew something was wrong because he was in a rush to leave and his phone kept vibrating. I said you need to get back to the chick who wants to see you because I'm not into drama and it looks like you have it. He didn't respond. "Listen I had a great time in Atlantic City with you but call me when you get this situation handled. He still didn't respond.

Ok at this point I shut the T.V. off and I head to the front door. "Let's just end the night, I'm tired and I think you should go". Mr. Bartender gets up and walks to the door not even looking at me in the face. Finally he turns to me. "Miranda, I had an awesome time this weekend, I'm so sorry about the phone call. It's not what you think, I'm not dating anyone and I'm not attached at all". I didn't respond because I just wasn't in the mood to hear the bull that was going to come out his mouth. He stares at me hard trying to read my blank face. "Miranda, I'm being honest."

At this point I'm biting my nails because he is still at my front door and he is looking at me for a reaction. "What's your deal, please break the news to me".

He struggles to get his thoughts and words together. "That was my seven year old daughter calling". SHOCKED BY THE WORDS DAUGHTER

I stood there and had nothing to say. Not sure how long I stood there but I know Mr. Bartender was in his car and he was driving away.

A daughter! Okay really wasn't expecting that.

At this point I was done! Four men since breaking up with my ex and this single life scene was overrated!

Out came my favorite vanilla bean ice cream and the disgust of every man I've met.

Was I being cursed by God or was the devil really out to get me.

With my emotions running wild I did the worst thing ever, I called my ex and that conversation would change everything!

A Single Girl's Life Pt. 6

After my lash out on Mr. Sensitive I didn’t need or want to deal with him again. I was just focusing on the other guys and Mr. Sensitive was out!

So my date never happen with Mr. Metro, I refused to call him on the day we were set to meet because he should have called. I gave it until late evening and my phone never ranged except for Mr. Sensitive and I was so not hanging out with him. Instead I went out to a great martini bar alone, yes alone and I had the best time. The bartender was cute, funny young and so attractive. Mr. Bartender made my night extra special, too bad he was only 24 I just can’t do the Demi thing. But of course he slipped me his number when I lefted. Who knows maybe I will call him!

The next day Mr. Sensitive texted me, I didn’t answer. This happened for the next two days; finally I gave in because he was getting on my nerves! He wanted to know why I hadn’t called him and I told him that we are friends and I don’t need to do that. I’m not into hooking up with you and that’s it. Mr. Sensitive claimed that he wants it to be more on the level of movies, dinner, kissing, maybe sex etc… Yeah ok! Maybe sex are you kidding me isn’t that the biggest part of casual dating. At this point I was just agreeing with him but I knew that I wasn’t seeing Mr. Sensitive again unless I was completely bored or I was super desperate. Before we hung up he said “So if you want to stop by tonight after the game it would be nice”. I was just like uh huh I will let you know. Again I would say this like 4 more times since he kept asking me this question. I couldn’t even get off the freaking phone without him begging!
At around 8:30 I texted him and said I was sick, I really was sick but even if I wasn’t I wasn't planning on going to see him. At around 10:00 that evening I called Mr. Bartender. We chatted for about thirty minutes and it was a nice conversation. He asked if I wanted to meet for a cocktail since he was getting out of work and I accepted.

Mr. Bartender is 24, he is getting his masters and he works for an insurance firm. He was such a comedian that night and he had so much to say. He also invited me to his birthday party in Atlantic City which was happening next weekend. I was shocked by the offer but I told him I would think about it. After the drink he walked me to my car and he kissed me so well. I was so impress with his style and technique. The chemistry was live and Atlantic City was looking like an option. After saying goodbye my phone ranged and to my surprise it was a number that would make me shake.
My ex-boyfriend of five years was calling and I haven’t spoken with him in 8 months I was shocked by this so I let it go straight to voicemail. Once I listened to the voicemail I just started to cry. He wanted to talk and he was telling me how much he loved me and all this extra stuff that I wasn’t prepared for.

I was dating again and trying to get back on the scene and now my head was spinning with confusion.

A Single Girl's Life Pt. 3

So I had two dates planned for the weekend and I was super excited! Can it get any better I thought, yes!

As I was out with some friends eating at a restaurant in the city a group of business men kept staring at us. Not sure what they wanted but they seem like they were interested in our group for sure. As we left the restaurant one of the guys approached me, he was shorter than I was attracted to but he seem like a nice guy so I took his number. Now I could not believe I had three guys lined up back to back, what was wrong with this picture! Was this too good to be true. Later it would be!

My date with Mr. Sensitive was amazing, I had the best time and I was really digging him. He was really into pleasing me on our 2nd date and I felt a connection this time around. I guess I was getting comfortable with him because nothing else mattered at that moment. We actually had real conversations and I was thinking I could date him if he was open to it in the future.

After the date I went back to his place and we watched a movie as the movie played our eyes began looking at each other, at that moment I knew something was going down! Miranda Lewis never allows something to go down after two dates but the moment felt right, so I went with it. Mr.Sensitive's touch turned me on completely every sensual touch he did I was opened. After all of the sensual touching the real moment of truth happened and I was shocked!

Mr. Sensitive left me feeling like nothing happened! He was in the moment of passion and I was like "Uh is something going on here"?
Because if this was the way he worked his magic it was poof be gone all the way! I was confused! How can you be 44, have been in 3 long term relationships and this is what you call sex! Whoa I'm so disappointed! I mean do I direct you and tell you where to go or do I just say good job?

When it was over in about 15 minutes he says "Oh baby that was good. It was good right"?
............(thinking).............. "Oh yes it was amazing"! "Good I'm glad you like, want to go again"?

Oh boy!!!! That's when my stomach had to hurt because again wasn't going down! Oh my, I just didn't know how to react, after that it was so time to go. It was already late and I needed to go and call my girlfriend and tell her what happened. I left his place driving in silence because even though Mr. Sensitive was terrible in bed I was attracted to him as a person. So weird!

As I turned my phone back on I had two messages one from Mr. Traveler and the second from Mr. Metro (I will explain later) both men were calling about locations to meet on our dates.
At this point I had to change my thoughts on them because right now I needed to get excited about something since Mr. Sensitive didn't come through. LOL, at least he did but I didn't!

The next day I spoke to Mr. Traveler and also Mr. Metro and let's just say both men were totally different. Mr. Traveler 33, was young, full of energy and laughter I really was excited about our date because he was down for whatever and I liked that about a man. Mr Metro on the other hand was a bit different. He was very DIVAISH on the phone not sure if he was confused about himself but I figured I would know for sure on our date. His vibe was chill and he was different from the type of guys I was attracted to I figured if it didn't work out on our date I could just hang with him as a friend. As Metro continued to talk about himself he claimed he was a director for a few top television shows on TV. Not impressed at all I actually was turned off because me dating an industry dude doesn't lead to anything serious but free meals, drinks and a party or two! Soooo not into that! But Mr. Metro I guess felt my energy and liked the fact that I could careless. He was totally looking to settle down with a woman and I actually believed him. Mr. Metro was 40 and he had lived the life since being in the television industry for years and he seemed to be over it. But the way he was talking on the phone was like he was looking to marry tomorrow. "Wait a minute, I'm still trying to figure out if you like she or he"!!

Only two more days until my dates and I was excited about both guys. Unfortunately as the day approached I would realized that I should have had a Plan B because Plan A wasn't even a choice any longer!

Pt.4 of A Single Girl's Life

Friday night I had potential plans to meet Mr. Sensitive, he wanted to go to dinner after work since he had a crazy work week. Those dinner plans weren't definite but it was something he talked about. So after him and I text message all Friday and not one mention about a date I knew it wasn't going to be one. It was cool I had two other dates lined up so I was still feeling good!!
Friday evening Mr. Traveler texts me if I was still interested in doing a day date just so we both could get to know one another without the alcohol. The theatre was in our plans and I was impressed with his thoughts a true charmer. So I texted him a time that would be great for me and waited for him to respond.
......................................Silence!.......................... I waited a bit longer............Silence.............
I didn't hear a thing from Mr. Traveler, not sure what went wrong but I guess I will be hearing the big excuse soon.

As the next day approached Mr. Sensitive decides to call me and though very excited to hear his voice my excitement would eventually crumple. Mr. Sensitive decides to tell me that he isn't interested in being in a serious relationship since he is very busy with work and all that extra nonsense that comes along with these words. But he did make it clear that he was interesting in sleeping with me or should I say "I just want to have Fun" was the exact words but we all know what that really means. I was like OK, not sure why I was saying OK because I wasn't down with that. SO I had to rethink my answer and state that I was not into that at all. Sleeping with a man just for fun is not what I had in mind and plus sleeping with a man who can't even please me in the bedroom is definitely not what Miranda had in mind. So the conversation ended and I was too through with Mr. Sensitive or was it me that was becoming Mrs. Sensitive!!

With all of the drama I just couldn't wait to see Mr. Metro because too much was going on in a very short period of time and I just wanted to kick back and laugh and have a dirty martini because that would make everything feel better.

Not long before that thought came and went Mr. Metro called to say he was sick!!! What the hell is going on!! Not only am I not going out tonight three dates actually bailed out! Wow!

So here I am thinking to myself Single Life sucks as usual and of course all the men suck too. With all of that going on good thing my girls were on hand because they became my dates! Mr. Metro gets a "Get Out Of Jail Free Card" because he really was sick but the others can kiss my beautiful, bootilicious tush! Anyway Mr. Metro said next Friday we would get together at that moment if it happened cool and if it didn't I was so over it! I must say my girls were the perfect dates for that evening.

So while busy at work Mr. Sensitive decides to text me, I didn't respond. Why? For the simple fact that I really didn't want to be bothered with him knowing that that's all he really wanted from me was hook ups. After about 5 texts messages from him I responded. "We are friends and I don't think you should continue to text me sexual things because friends don't do that" I hit send. Of course the desperate jackass came out of him at this point. "Well let's not be friends, I think I just want to kiss you here and here and especially there" Ugh! Was this really being said! I mean come on, how horny are you right now! "Please stop texting me when you're horny its such a turn off and I'm so not interested" Well I guess he felt that because he said Oh my! I was just joking with you why are you being so serious. Are you bitter?
That hit a nerve completely and I started to boil!
I can't keep texting this idiot at this point because he doesn't get it and him at 44 years old I will not explain. I'm so not interested don't you get it?? You were wack in bed, I'm just interested in talking with you on the phone sure we can hang but all I want from you at this point is a friendship all that sexual crap save it for your left hand! My god I couldn't hold it in!!

Pt.2 of A Single Girl's Life

Mr. Sensitive was sitting next to me on his couch and trying to make his move and when he did, it was like an excited dog licking all over its owners face! Yuck, can you really slow down I had to say. I mean what woman wants to have an aggressive tongue in her mouth spinning like a washing machine! Is it just me or do we prefer the soft and gentle approach. After trying to make him follow my league of his 44 years of experience it was cool. But I still felt uneasy. Mr. Sensitive noticed and asked again "What is the problem"? I told him I was a bit nervous and it had been awhile since I actually kissed a different man and I was trying to get back in the groove but the setting was throwing me off. He then moved to his other couch and became mute. "Do you want me to leave"? I heard the voices in my head that were saying "Yes, just leave his house"! He didn't look at me he just said "No". Still confused by his words since his actions were clear that he was pissed, he finally uttered a line. "So what are you looking for"? "Am I like your puppet to help you get over your ex, I don't understand"?Were we really having this conversation I thought, on a freaking first date!So with that said I had to break it down to him. Here is what I said."I'm looking to meet new people, I am very attracted to you, I feel a bit nervous since this is my first time back on the dating scene, being in your apartment right now is a bit weird since I don't even know you and I don't expect anything to go down because I feel shy and nervous". After saying all of that I said the worst sentence that just came out so naturally like I have said numerous times "It's not you it's me"! Oh boy did that turn into a direct look of "No she didn't"!
This whole dialogue went on for about an hour and the night finally came to a close of planning a second date at a restaurant and seeing if there would be any chemistry at that point. I was cool with that. Mr. Sensitive was a good guy he was looking for a relationship and he had the status that no woman would pass up. To bad my mental state couldn't see it because as I drove back home a guy that I met at Starbucks had sent me a cute message on my phone. "Miranda hope you had a great night, I was wonder when I get back from vacation if you wanted to meet up. Give me a call".
This guy I will call Mr. Traveler was 34, extremely good looking, funny and full of energy. I liked his approach and confidence he was the type of guy you knew you could have fun with.As I smiled about his message and the excitement of a potential date I smelled a sexy scent all over me. Mr. Sensitive's cologne was blazing on my neck and shirt.Confused again by the fact that I actually loved the scent and began to have good thoughts on Mr. Sensitive and our next date but also Mr. Traveler.

This twist would be interesting and I was ready for the ride!

GlitterBuzzStyle: A Single Girl's Life!

Back on the dating scene after ending a six year relationship of ups and downs and all the bull**** that it brings, I Miranda Lewis has decided to get my so called groove back and mingle. Boy is it a nightmare "Single Life" who ever enjoys it you're crazy because the men that I have met have allowed me to tell some stories!

Mr.Sensitive 44, I will call him
Mr.Sensitive actually picked me up, and he had the charm to make a woman actually engage in conversation. His approach was smooth, nice body for his age, tall dark and handsome, Italian not super attractive but he did grab my attention and his laugh really turned me on.. Now 44 is a bit over the top for me since I'm 30 but I figured go for it. We made plans to go out one weekend and that was
that. We started talking on the phone daily and I laughed, felt comfortable and actually couldn't wait for the first date. After the second week things were getting steamy over the phone, text messages were hot and daily tease pics were exchange. It was fun but I was hoping that my willing of being playful wasn't going to bite me in the ass!

Our first date never really happened I got out of work late and I couldn't find the restaurant we were suppose to meet at so I opt to meet at his place with intentions
of still going on our first date. Never happened! Instead he whipped up an amazing dinner and we had cocktails and got more in depth with past relationships blah, blah. I soon realized that I was becoming uncomfortable since I was in his place and the drinks were pouring. Was something about to go down? Could I actually do something with this guy? I just kept thinking of my ex and his touch and the mood totally went sour! Mr. Sensitive was born! Mr. Sensitive and I actually began to argue because he wasn't sure what my problem was. I was extremely nervous and now I'm in this guy's house and I can't get myself together. I liked Mr. Sensitive but he became angry and said I was given mixed messages because I'm at his place and over the phone I'm alive but in person I was dead. True! But his weird vibe was scary and the only thing I kept thinking was I need to leave, this was a mistake and I needed to wait a little longer before I put myself back on the dating scene. I was given him mixed messages because even though I liked him I just couldn't get bring out the REAL Miranda.
