without lettuce

i had a miranda (from sex and the city) moment today. after having a long discussion with my friend dan last night about why we're always into people who arent into us, or why meeting people for anything meaningful is so much more difficult than it used to be, and also how i should give up on my current crush and also stop being overly nice to people i dont care about going out with, it was funny to overhear the conversation on the sidewalk that i overheard on my way to the studio this morning. as im stuck walking behind two girls (undergrads? - maybe grad students, i couldnt tell), i heard one telling the other about a 'date' she had been on last night. she wasnt sure if the guy was hitting on her or if he was just befriending her b/c someone in her life was sick, and she also noted how she thought he was hitting on someone else that evening (but she couldnt tell, b/c whenever a guy talks to a girl she thinks he's attracted and going for it), and she also said that the guy hadnt invited her up to his room at the end of the night but she didnt think that meant he wasnt into her. mind you, i heard all of this in about a ten yard stretch of sidewalk, so it wasnt like i was following them for blocks. but in those ten yards, i wanted to just tell the girl that the guy just isnt into her and she should move on. as should i.
