Some of ya'll might recognize this as a branch from another forum but here goes:
Let's call my cousin's friend "Beyonce". So, I basically approached my Aunt first who said Beyonce would be a great catch for me or my cousin but Beyonce actually approached my Aunt (they grew fairly close) and my Aunt got the hint that Beyonce actually felt she had more in common with me and that my cousin was just "using" Beyonce for, well, you know. So, my Aunt said I should ask her to hang out but not before asking my cousin so I did. He basically said, "She's not mine. Do what you want." So, naturally Beyonce said yes, even asking did I ask my cousin which I told her I did.
However, in an odd twist, I asked an ex-girlfriend, let's call her "Tyra", to accompany me to the movies. We've been to the movies twice after our break-up. We actually went all the way to an engagement before breaking it off. We are unhealthy as a couple but great as friends. But, she stays WAY too busy and just won't answer. So, there's a movie out this weekend which I asked her to and she didn't answer so I moved on (yep, I asked Beyonce) only to have her text last night and say she would have gone. I have a special place in my heart for her because I actually loved her. She was the best woman I'd ever been with despite how it ended. So, now I find myself wanting to go with her - even as friends - because I feel as if the other would be a "date" and I"m retired!!
Then, to make it even more complicated, I signed up for EHarmony and have talked to an awesome woman, let's call her "Mandy". Mandy and I have a lot in common and she sounds like a really, really exciting woman (you have no idea!) So, even though we may not make it the movies, there is a possibility for a future relationship. However, what happens if Beyonce also forms an attraction - more than just friends?? I told myself last night that I can't lie. If Tyra made a move, (you know what I mean!) I would go for it just because I'm comfortable and compatable with her (plus its been eight damn months). If Beyonce made a move, I would go third base but not a homerun simply based on the fact that, for now, I still view her as my cousin's girl even though they only dated and did the nasty only two or three times.
My mind, my heart, and my penis are telling me three different things. I tried to make it short but feel free to ask questions to clarify. Ugggggg, thoughts???
