French connection

i dont browse on craigslist so much anymore but once in a blue moon i go on out of boredom, that's how i came to know Christophe, he's the first person i met from CL since Loic 2 years ago, and he's also from France. i guess what motivated me to email him was 1. i miss having a fun drinking buddy 2. i needed to connect with a new person to take off the tension between me and Jarvis. I just can't seem to breathe around Jarvis and i need to re-assure myself that my social skills are still intact.

and it proved that i sparkle in the socializing department. on saturday I met Christophe after a long day's work, it felt so easy to converse with him and his black friends, Ruddy and Mamedy, as im usually intimidated by black guys for some reasons. after waiting for alsmot an hour in the line-up and making french connections with this gorgeous looking boy Luden who lined up in front of us, we finally got in and after a few shots and one beer, the party became loads of fun.

the after party sex was not pre-planned, my coworker did tell me not to sleep with him prior to meeting Christophe but i also know how weak i am at keeping my pants on with someone attractive. Christophe has a face of a vampire, porcelain skin and fangs, though he smiles a lot and i love his personality, and i love listening to him when he speaks french with his friends.

i woke up this morning with the worst hangover at his place, after cabbing home i took a nap and went to Fairmont waterfront hotel to visit where he works in the afternoon, spending time with him was very enjoyable. he will be cooking dinner for me this week and we're already making plans to go to the states together, perhaps even to France during Christmas, but that's a tentative plan, if i did go that'd mean end of my job and possibly more.

i always say it's easier to meet up and have sex than going on a real date with a potential boyfriend. i think that's how i feel about Jarvis, when i really like someone i just can't act myself, my brain freezes and i sweat like hell. with Christophe on the other hand, we both know this is a short-term romance, everything's so much easier.
