You know, funny thing about the undead. They sort of never…. die. Hence the name, undead, of course. Of course if you text message them to say you miss talking to them, that is likely to encourage their undead tendencies, I’ll admit. But still, they don’t have to answer, you know?
What does this mean? It means that even a savvy One Date Wonder does not always operate with the greatest of intelligence. It means I was the one who sent that text message, and I sent it to the zombie guy. And it means he answered. Yesterday I went over to his place for lunch.
There was no hug hello at the door, there was really no touching at all. I was trying to decide he just wanted to be friends as I ate my pizza and pretended to care about whatever he put on tv. He told me all about how April is going to be romance free for him. No dating, no sex, no romantic thoughts at all until May. Effective immediately. I finished my pizza and put down my plate. Then he kissed me.
It was not a friendly kiss. It was hands in my hair, knee-melting, full on kissing. It definitely required romantic thoughts of some variety. He told me he was breaking his rule. We kissed some more. He didn’t seem to mind so much.
Before I left he decided he’d still take his April break. I don’t know what that means or what I should do. In fact, I’m completely at a loss.

Well, it’s official then. That makes two of us. We can be at a loss together. *sigh*

That sucks the big one. Seriously, who does that? And men say that women are confusing? I beg to differ.

Aha, apparently means we can date and try stuff out, but he’s not ready right now for a serious relationship. I can be his date but not his girlfriend.
Which means I’m an ass for saying I’d go out with him on Thursday, doesn’t it?

I don’t get the April thing. I think he’s bluffing.
But what the hell do I know? Maybe him swearing it off will make you want to jump him and hell, if that works with women, I’ll swear romance off in April, too.

If you like playing games you should definitely keep doing this with the zombie guy because he’s good at it.
On the one hand: Good kisser, enjoyable date, hasn’t eaten your brains yet.
On the other hand: He called it off because of your differences, seems emotionally childish, sends incredibly mixed signals. Hmmm…wait a minute. I believe those things are dating parlance for the zombie equivalent of brain-eating.
