Crazily fantastic/horrible weekend.
Friday night my old roommate and her boyfriend came up to visit me which was awesome, I love hanging out with them. We went out to eat then to a party where I played flip cup and got a nice little buzz. Then we went to another party and I played beer pong (got trounced by this couple that was fantastic, I've never seen such a shut-out). By this point, I'm fairly flying with my buzz, feeling good. So I call basically everyone I knew who was free that night and have them come out to my apartment. Which was really just all the people we had been party-hopping with and one guy from my work and two other guys I know. Somehow I give everyone directions and we all end up at my place and drink a lot more beer and some vodka. This is around 1am, which will be important info later on.
So we're all hanging out, having fun. At maximum attendance I had 11 people in my place, including myself and roommates. So this is a VERY mild party, especially for me. Around 1:30 Corey leaves because he had been at work. Shortly thereafter my two other guy friends leave. As they're going out the door, the one, whom we shall call blue eyes, turns around and says, hey, what are you doing tomorrow night? I say, nothing after work. He says, okay, tomorrow I'm coming over with a bottle of liquor. I give him my number and he goes on his way. This perplexes the crap out of me, but I'm too drunk to really comprehend it. Blue eyes is gorgeous. Like, out of my league gorgeous. And smart.
Unfortunately I met him under weird circumstances. I had been at a festival and a guy that I wasn't very interested in invited me to go drink with him at a party afterwards. Being the good drunk that I am, I accepted his invitation. He takes me to Blue Eyes' house however, at the time I do not know Blue Eyes or any of these people. I go and drink absynth and get absoluetly hammered and allow other guy to kiss me and take off some of my clothes. I thought that he lived at this house, so when he asked me to go up to a room, I said yes, because I thought it was his room. I end up topless but I don't let him take anything off because I'm a mean teasing prude like that, even when hammered. Had I been sober I wouldn't have even made out with this guy, but hey, we all make mistakes while drunk. Anyway, the kid whose room it really is walks in and flips the fuck out. So I'm basically super embarassed and don't think I'll ever really go back to this house. But the next morning everyone is cool and nice and we all went out to breakfast. So I get "other guy's" number planning on using him to hang out with his friends because they're all awesome guys. Fast forward about a month to OZZfest. I see "other guy" there and end up hanging out with him and 2 of the guys I met at Blue Eyes' house. No Blue Eyes though. So I hang out with these other two all day and night and get kind of interested in one of them. He flirts with me the whole concert and puts his arm around me, holds my hand and all of that. So I'm interested but I already feel awkward because of the whole fiasco with other guy. So I don't really openly pursue all of this. I just tell the mutual friend I might be interested and he agrees to make sure I'm at all of the group outings and that I get to know everyone better. I end up going to a pool party with them and spending lots of time with Blue Eyes and not Ozzfest boy.
*Sorry, this is long, but its such a tangled web and I need advice.*
Anyway, I start getting to know Blue Eyes. I had always thought Blue Eyes was cute but he had previously been off limits due to the fact that he was dating a pregnant girl, although she was not pregnant with his baby. However she turned out to be all kinds of drama and dragged him into fights with the baby's daddy and it was very messed up and all of that, so they broke up about 2 weeks ago.
Now bring it back to friday night. (I'm thinking I should've done this post Tarantino style, but its too late for all of that now, I've typed so much)
So there are my two friends and three random guys from the first party that brought over beer. My friends and roommates all go to bed and I'm left with the three random guys who are too drunk to drive home but I cannot go to bed and let them roam about the place, I definitely don't trust them. So, I bake everyone cookies that are really good, and I manage to not burn the cookies or myself while being shitfaced, yay for me!
The next day I work 4-9 and Blue Eyes texts me a few times during the day, asking when I get off and all of that. When I get home from work I tell him and he is at my place in about 5 minutes. I'm still in my work uniform and he walks right in with not a bottle, but a HANDLE of Captain Morgan's. I'm normally a vodka girl, but I'm pretty certain that a handle of Rum is not cheap. So Blue Eyes, myself, and my two roommates drink about 3/4 of this bottle of Rum. We'd played a few drinking games and are watching Biodome, of all things, when we hear a giant crash outside. Some girl that we don't know who is completely hammered just crashed through the fence in our parking lot and is teetering on the edge of the cliff. We try to get her out of the blazer but she refuses to listen saying that she has to keep her foot on the brake, as if that's saving her. We call the towtruck and then go back inside, thinking that the towtruck guy is going to see how drunk this girl is and call the cops, and we're all drunk and underage. The towtruck guy comes and gets her off the cliff, she parks her car (with great effort) and the towtruck guy leaves. She then actually drove home, I couldn't even beleive it. So its about 4 in the morning. I offer to let Blue Eyes sleep in my bed because we have a cat and he's allergic to them. He goes and lays down in my bed and I go to brush my teeth. When I come back he says, you need to get some sleep, I'm just going to go sleep on the couch. He was right, since I had to be at work at 9am so I just let it go. I woke up early and took a shower, and he was actually still there. I took advantage of this and walked around in my sexy robe while making coffee and whatnot.
We talked about how much fun the night was etc etc. He said he was going to go home and go back to bed. He then said, so the plan is, you get off of work and we go see Clerks II then get something to eat, then go finish that handle. Which is pretty much what happened except that my roommates came along as did our other friend. We played rum pong at his house and finished the handle along with a lot of vodka. Towards the end of the night he asked me where I was sleeping and I said his bed. So he turns around and looks at me and says, "it's okay that we're just friends right now, right?" so I say yeah, because honestly, the more that I get to know him, the more being friends with him is great although dating him woul d be great too, as long as I at least get to be his friend. Of course, this confuses the crap out of me, because I've never had a guy that I didn't know very well who wasn't actually interested in me buy me a handle of liquor. And you know there were a lot of other little things that happened that had made me think he liked me, but I guess I was wrong, I don't know. So we go up and get in his bed and he announces that he's not wearing pants, so I don't either. Then Steve comes upstairs and knocks on the door to tell us that Sam is throwing up. So I go downstairs in my undies and help her throw up. When we determine that she's okay, I go back up. What happened next is that Blue Eyes and I laid in bed and talked for 3 HOURS about everything. EVERYTHING. When we were finally just too tired to stay awake anymore, we hugged and I kissed him on the cheek and we went to sleep. I'm thinking to myself, this is either my next best friend or boyfriend, but I have no idea which. One thing we talked a lot about was how he is a really nice guy and he has a tendency to date girls who treat him like shit. So I'm thinking he's kind of scared to date a new girl right away before getting to know her really well. So maybe thats what this weekend was for... because the next day before I left to take everyone home, I asked if he wanted to go to the diner later for hangover food, as is tradition (kind of haha). He said maybe later.
I went home and passed out and was woken up by a text from Blue Eyes asking me to go to lunch. I go to his house and since I'm already driving and its a bitch to park on his street, I drive. We go to the diner and he gets a smoking table even though he doesn't smoke. We have lunch and talk the entire time about our families and ambitions and stuff like that. It's ridiculous how well-suited he is to me. So when it's time to pay, I forgot to ask the waitress to split the check and before I can do anything about it, Blue Eyes pays. I'm sorry, I know that sometimes I get stuff for my friends but guys rarely ever do that for each other. And when a guy does that for a girl, I think that says something. I don't know. I then take him back to his house and was just going to drop him off and he asks me to come in. I go in and he teaches me how to play tetris, as I don't play video games at all. We play tetris and talk for 2 hours. Then we go sit out on the porch and talk more until its time for him to go to work. I haven't done this much talking with one person since I met my current best girl friend in 7th grade.
I leave and check my voicemail and apparrently my landlady called to say that the bitch below me left her 5 messages about how loud we were on friday night. Why the lady couldn't have called us herself, as we gave her our numbers when we moved in, or even just came up and told us to quiet down, I don't know. I think she's a shit stirrer. So we now have a warning to not do this again as well as an "official" letter about our misconduct. Which really doesn't say what we did wrong other than that it stated when quiet hours were. And we weren't even that loud, so I'm a bit pissed about this woman trying to get us kicked out.
Anyway, today Blue Eyes invited me and my roommates to come to his 21st birthday party at his parents' house which is kind of near where I'm from. And is also about 4 hours from here. I'm definitely going. So I'm also going to New York for a week to visit my brother and to meet my newest nephew. He asked me when I'm leaving and when I'm coming back, so I'm thinking we might get together again tonight. Hope so.
Anyway, sorry this was SUPER long but I really wanted to get it all out and not leave anything out. Crazy weekend. I hung out with Blue Eyes pretty much all weekend... but we're just friends. Thoughts? Opinions? My current opinion is that he's still getting over the pregnant girl and all the shit she caused for him and that he wants to get to know me better. Because when a mutual friend asked him what the deal was with him and I, Blue Eyes said that he wasn't interested right now. But he certainly is acting interested. Ack. Help me please. And to those of you who actually read this whole thing, thank-you soooooo much, I really appreciate it.
Love y'all!

Women are exceptionally good at dropping hints, so just make sure that somehow, someway he knows that you're interested. Once he's ready, if he wants to make a move, he will. All you can really do is just let it happen.
Good luck. In the end, all that really matters is that you're happy. Whether you're happy with him as a friend or a boyfriend isn't even important right now. Just be. Things have a tendency to work themselves out as time goes along.
