Serendipity

There's this guy I got to know, months back. He happens to be a friend of a friend and I've seen his pictures on facebook before. And I've seen and also correctly deduce that he was dating this guy from the pictures. And I've also pretty much correctly deduce the problems they were having. (I deserve that Bsc in psychology)

Moving on a month or 2 from that, he dropped me a mail on some online profile. And so we've chatter virtually, He's a nice person but sometimes he's just too literal and rigid. But he's really sweet, he'll drop smses to encourage you along the week. Something I used to do, or rather do much less frequently these days.

And so I replied 1 of those on Thursday and the sms conversation went along the lines of we're always suppose to meet but never did. And he concluded the time wasn't ripe. (yes, ripe.)

And how he had this friend who he's been in contact with but never met till 4 years later. And today, I saw him in the train! Walked in, saw 2 seats, 1 on the left side, 1 on the right. No idea why but I took the right instead of the left, if I had took the left I would have sat next to him. But if I had sat next to him, me being me, might not have noticed him.

He was engross on the phone, so he didn’t notice me. Looked at him for a bit, nope, didn’t work. And since I’m really bad at recognizing people, I won’t have gone up to him as well, nor would I have continue staring. So it got a bit uncomfortable after a while. Thankfully the train got crowded and we were blocked.

In any case, I texted him thereafter. And it was nice talking to him. Seeing him physically for the first time. Well, he’s cute but not conventionally so. And his physique is not too bad at all. So he called me back. And I thought I’ve seen and heard everything before. He called to explained why he was so engross in his conversation, which ½ the carriage could prolly hear. And I got the clearance from him to talk about it.

I’ve heard of con boys. But this has to be the best job to date. The phone conversation was about a guy he knows. That guy's bf in desperation called him. At 23, this guy managed to con a condo (legal papers done to transfer it to his name) by being with a guy for 2 years, while concurrently having/conning other people as well. He’s good, for his age, he’s got lots of potential and a long way to go. Hopefully though, Karma doesn’t catch up with him 1st.
