Dwayne Wayne II

I talked to him for like an hour tonight. I had already spoken to my girl Attractive (TM) for two and a half hours this morning! And a few other friends for extended periods, too.

Dwayne Wayne and I have our ups and downs. But I guess I am committed to trying to be mature and right and wise and helpful and all that. I really do love him. I worry about him, though. I like him a lot. But he also knows how to make me dislike him. He doesn't mean it...but it's there. He don't abuse me or nothing, lol. But it's like....he's very unyielding from time to time.
But, I like him regardless.

We experienced absolutely none of that tonight. I am trying my best to understand him, and it's working.

I don't read his blog anymore. I gave it up after a falling out we had (that obviously affected me more than it did him). But I knew that if I was ever going to be able to have the friendship and intimacy that we once had, I couldn't read his blog. Tough to describe...but I know that the DW that he writes about isn't a complete picture of the DW I know.

I guess that's tough for me to take, because the Dwayne Wayne I know really is a beautiful person. Maybe I'm romanticizing him too much....he's still young, still has a lot of growing to do.

He's not the one. But I do respect him.
