Analysiiiiiiiiissssssssssss paaaaaaaaaaaaaralysissssssssssssssssss.
I'm finally in the financial position to buy furniture, but I can't decide what the fuck I want. Basically, I'm torn between a spacious (but yet relatively low seat count), lounging-friendly sectional sofa, or a higher seat count sofa and loveseat combination. If I planned on never, ever having people over to my apartment I'd be on the sectional in a heartbeat, but that's not the case so I keep waffling. Also, the sectional is more expensive. I still have a lot of things that I want and need for the apartment, so it's hard to justify spending an unnecessary premium on furniture.
I find myself in a wee bit of a pickle. I don't remember if I've revealed it on here before, but my ex-girlfriend lives in the same apartment building as I do. Everything ended on very good terms and we're still very close friends. So that's not a problem. But she has a roommate. A roommate that I've been spending an increasingly frequent amount of time with. A roommate that's very cute and that I'm discovering I have a lot in common with. A roommate that I can talk to at length without getting bored.
I wouldn't say I'm becoming infatuated, because I closed off that emotional room in my brain a long time ago, but my feelings aren't entirely platonic. They were at first, but such is the human condition that nothing innocent lasts forever. I'm not really sure what to do about it. I'm not getting very clear signals either way. Right now I'm just doing nothing because pursuing anything more would be a very risky gamble. I hate the game.
