Here's the deal.
I went to a Halloween party tonight. After several hours of chatting and drinking and playing beer pong I found myself talking to some dude. He asked me if that was my natural hair color (I was wearing a wig). I said no and showed him what my real hair looks like. He said it was attractive.
I told him I majored in Philosophy as an undergrad. He asked me what my favorite "unanswered question" was, which led to a conversation about free will. Which somehow led to a conversation about the physics of time travel. I started realizing that, under his costume ("half man, half bear, half pig"), he was probably hot.
We kept talking about time travel. I asked questions. He answered them, and always followed with "I'm sorry, I'm an engineer, I don't need to go into this much detail," which, because I am a lover of nerds, I always followed with thoughts of "MAKE. OUT. WITH. ME. NOW."
I mean, HELLO. Any guy who will talk time travel and philosophy with me in the middle of a party is probably my soulmate.
Two of my friends were being
And then I left.
WHY DID THIS GUY NOT ASK FOR MY NUMBER AND WHY AM I INCAPABLE OF MAKING ANY SORT OF MOVE TO MAKE HIM ASK FOR MY NUMBER?
The fact that I have NO GAME WHATSOEVER NOT EVEN A TEENY TINY BIT isn't exactly new to me, but I sort of thought this one was in the bag. This guy does not appear to be on Facebook (yes, I checked, shut up I am a total internet stalker and I love it). Do I let this go? Do I ask the party host to put me in contact with him? Does this guy have a girlfriend that he didn't mention?
Crap. Damnit. Motherf'er.
It's bed time. Damnit.

I hate that. When you have that really awesome connection and conversation and then you just sort of freeze up and let it go. Like...how do you follow through? What happened to boys asking for numbers? It's all too confusing.
Um, wtf?! You need more of me in your life. Seriously.
1 - I love that he was Man Bear Pig. 2 - I say message him with some random philosphical comment and take it from there.
I love this post with all my blogging heart. Some random thoughts: 1. Why do all Halloween parties include beer pong? 2. Why are boys stupid at parties? 3. You should definitely FB message him.
I say if you like him, do some digging around with the other people who were at the party, see what you can find out!
"I said no and showed him what my real hair looks like."
The hair on your head, right? not your pubes?
I'm the same way - I have NO GAME and I don't know why. I've had a couple "missed opportunities," if you will, and it's not a good feeling.
HUNT THAT BOY DOWN!
