Breakups are strange things - you get to know someone so well. You send them messages every morning and wish them sweet dreams in the evening. You ask each other how your day has been... then BOOM. Suddenly it's over and you no longer speak. It's like a flick was switched.
It's been a week since Jared and I have spoken and honestly, it's a lot easier than I would have thought it would be. Looking back at it now, I'm glad things didn't get serious between us because he's really actually not my type. Not at all! I don't even know what the hell I was thinking.
As for Scott... well, I saw him on Tuesday evening for sushi and movies - once again, the guy blew me away.
We got a bottle of Shiraz and a bottle of Pinotage, rented Divergent and Filth, got take-out sushi and then ching chong cha'd for which movie to watch first. He won, so Divergent it was.
After the first film we took a break and actually played Tekken 6 on his playstation which was so much fun. I've never played playstation (it's probably not called that anymore is it? X-box???) with a guy besides my brother before and found myself having the best time.
We attempted to watch Filth but it was such a weirdo movie we switched it off a quarter of the way through.
As Scott is a black belt in all sorts of martial arts (so hot....), he then taught me some self-defence moves - it was a combination of hilarious, steamy and really helpful!
That's when he really blew me away by hauling out his guitar (did I mention HOT!?).
I didn't even know the guy could play.... OR sing!! He's literally better than Jack Johnson and Ben Harper combined. Drool.
He sang me a few songs and somehow amidst it all, we lost track of time and it was suddenly 2am.
With that in mind we decided it was time for bed. He lives in a different town to me so I couldn't drive that late, especially after two bottles of wine.
He's so cozy and snuggly - I actually can't get over it. You know how sometimes you cuddle with someone yet no matter what you do you just can't get comfortable together. Suddenly it feels like you've got one too many limbs or something and you just can't find that perfect spot to settle into? Well, we do not have that problem.
It's pretty lame to admit this but it feels like he's my missing puzzle piece (yes I just quoted freaking Katy Perry...).
Oh right - and because this is supposed to be a shameless, saucy, men-induced love story blog... I will with this - the sex is out of this world!!!!
Before you think differently of me - we have known each other for some time and I've slept over in the past but we have taken things very slowly up until this point.
In between kissing and ripping the clothes off of each others backs on Tuesday night I asked him that dreaded, awkward question - Do You Have A Condom?? (keep it clean ladies...)
He didn't.
He said he'd try to be very careful but here's the thing... I do not do the full monty without a condom. You never know... you know?
So what are you to do at 2am when you're all fired up with this guy you share a crazy amount of passion with????
Well, go on a drive to the garage and fetch a box of condoms! That's what. Hahahaha we felt SO incredibly naughty - and it wasn't just a little drive either.
I found it truly hilarious.
He spoke to Margaret, his ex girlfriend during this past week and told me that he had ended things with her.
"I am yours if you want me," he said.
I was so unbelievably happy and jittery, which is horrible to admit because his ex must be heartbroken and I truly never wanted to hurt anyone... but I feel like if I allow myself, I could fall head over heels for this guy.
He isn't perfect. No one is - but he's pretty damn close to perfect FOR me.
I am seeing him again tomorrow for a date - the excitement is actually just too much to comprehend.
