One step forward....two steps back?

so, i jinxed myself by saying that I was trying to balance four guys at once. suddenly, i'm down to two. maybe...
here's the sitch--
airforcer-- never heard from again. i didn't contact him either though, so maybe that's my bad. maybe i'll give him a shout...

the debater--
Met the debater on Wednesday. He requested an earlier date, which means I met him straight from school. I purposely wore a cutesy new tank top and jeans to school and had a most fantastic curly hair day. We met at a local brew pub and had a few drinks while watching the Phillies. We had plenty of things to talk about, including comparing/contrasting our teaching experiences, as he teachers at THE private school in vegas. total sidenote, but total proof that something is effed up in education--- the debater relayed this story of how earlier in the school year, his students were debating which american city is the best to visit and they narrowed it down to Boston, LA and NY before asking him his opinion. He said he couldn't weigh in, since he had never been to NYC...months later, his bday rolls around and his students give him a card. inside the card, a STACK of CASH that his students donated to him so he could finally go to NY. so he is. in a few weeks, just taking off three days from school, cause that's also totally cool since he gives up so many weekends to debate. i asked if his school was hiring.
ANYWAY...things were going great, and it was getting later, and we were both growing hungry, so we decided to go next door to a fancy new brick oven pizza place (supposedly NY style....but it wasn't quite up to par). We had some more drinks, ate some mozzarella, ate some pizza, talked a ton more and I decided I could really be happy getting to know him. I wasn't head over heels by any means, but I could see myself spending time with him. the bill came, and I paid (since he got the earlier rounds of drinks) and he didn't put up much protest...
we walked out and he kinda walked me towards my car, but his was closer so we stopped, hugged and I told him to be in touch, especially before his trip to NYC so I could tell him all the sights to see/miss.
...
so the next day I gave him a friendly, "Thanks for meeting up with me, it was great to talk to you blahblahblah" text. and he didn't reply.
and 4 days later I have not heard a word.
WhattheEFF?
everything SEEMED to go wonderfully fine. sure not crazy in love perfect. but fine enough to AT LEAST REPLY to A TEXT MESSAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fuck you debater. fuck you.

Then there's RadioGuy/dude/whatever i chose to call him...we're still texting almost daily and there's still been not even a word about the potential of getting together. granted, he's currently on vacation in San Diego and has been since last tuesday, so it's understandable, but i am truly hoping that when he gets back from his trip this tuesday he'll ask me out. or i might just grow a pair and ask him out myself. it's not exactly easy/ideal to get to know someone on text message and we've run out of things to talk about. so hopefully that will not be the case when and if we meet.

THEN there's Brooklyndude who i did not hear from all week until Friday. I was kinda bummed, then he called friday night and i missed his call, but his voicemail said something like, "oh it's 8:30, you're probably out for this night already...". Meanwhile...I missed his call cause I was in the bathroom washing my face and getting ready for bed. how cute, he thinks I have a life! I couldn't call him back just then and prove him wrong, so I just played phone tag with him on Saturday til he called me back earlier this evening. the poor guy's grandma passed away so he had to go to Florida all week, which is why I hadn't heard from him and is totally forgivable. We talked for a solid 45 minutes, often cutting each other off since we had so much to say. and we made tentative plans for Thursday or Friday which would be fabulous! not only was he great on the phone, he sent me another cute follow up text just minutes after we hung up apologizing for keeping me up too late. (not to worry i replied, i'm still up, writing in my blog about my massive crush on you even though we've never met. kidding.)
so that's that.
I haven't been browsing much on okcupid since i could barely handle the 4 i thought i was going to be juggling, but i'll have to get back into it.
i DO need to reply to this one new interest, who started the email with: "delete this if you aren't looking for a new friend" and ended with: "how do you feel about your nose? haha. no, it's cute. I like it. it gives you personality." in between were a handful of supposed deep questions about passions in life and blahblah bullshit, and although his pictures were cute, every one was him and a hot girl, and his rude attitude and the fact that he's now given me a complex about my nose mean he will surely be deleted.

so discoveries of the week-- no one is as he seems and there's an asshole behind every corner.
just need to hold hope that the two i've yet to meet will be at least close to what they seem...

hopefully next weekend will be much less lame, as these lame lonely weekends (hat trick- 3 in a row!) are getting to me.
time for bed.
g'night !!!!!!!
