Ho hum.

I can't remember if I've ever mentioned before, but while I have massive confidence issues in all aspects of my life, mainly socially, I am a very social person. I like meeting people (as long as the circumstances are favourable) and I love being in the company of my friends.

That usually means that I am very socially aware and active. By active, I mean the organiser. For example, CH has suggested that when we do meet for coffee, one thing we should talk about is meeting more socially - for a beer or two.

I'll end up arranging something bigger. Rather than just the two of us, I'll invite KfW2, FC and GM who all know her as well. It never crosses their minds to get in touch with CH (not her, them), so why I take it upon myself to be the centre of our social group, I don't know.

We had another night out last weekend - plenty of people turned up, but few people actually confirmed their attendance. In fact, only S confirmed. To be fair a few people said they couldn't make it, but the majority of people (who did turn up) didn't actually specify one way or the other, leaving it up to me to chase them for a response.

I shouldn't have to specifically ask for an RSVP, but it seems like I should.

Regardless, I had a great time. I think everyone did, but that's unsurprising. When this group get together, we usually do have a good time. Plenty of drinks were taken and it was a late night. GM and Sports Girl were out. I've not spoken to them in ages. SG was apologetic, blaming an internal move in work for her sudden silence. Given that the silence coincided with her dating GM rather than the work thing, I'm sceptical.

She promised to be better at being in contact and we tentatively agreed to meet this week as we were both off work. I sent a message last night, suggesting we meet today. She agreed and I asked when she'd like to meet. Silence.

Facebook is telling me that she's out and about playing Pokemon Go, but she's yet to reply to my direct question. I'm not chasing her up. I was disappointed when she went quiet a few months ago and while I liked having her out at the weekend, there's definitely a coolness/distance from me towards her. I've made some effort (and I've done that a couple of times since she hooked up with GM)... now it's up to her to put her money where her mouth is.

Look and likey.

So, as a big-ish coincidence, guess who popped up in my Tinder feed today? No? Well, given recent posts on Tinder non-matches, it was the We...
