Riding with Amanda
|
Riding with Amanda I've never blogged about Amanda before, which is odd, because she's ubiquitous in my world. A lot of the social events I go to are arranged by swingers, even though most of them are distinctly non-kinky activities; bar meets, birthday parties, roller skating, etc. It seems like every time I go to an event like this, Amanda is there. She's in my yoga class too, of which Erin is the instructor. That group goes out to eat after yoga every Saturday afternoon. I see Amanda a lot. And that's a good thing. Amanda is beautiful. She also has enormous boobs, which is a great thing when she wears tight yoga clothes. She's single, and she doesn't have . I think that's one reason I see her so often. When most of my friends are unable to make a party, care is the reason. But obviously, Amanda and I have a lot in common. It may seem strange that I've never written a post about how I'm trying to get her in my bed. Except that... I never have. Right from the very first conversation with Amanda, I could tell there were some odd things about her. She's smart. I mean she's incredibly smart. I think she's a chemist, working in food science, but I feel like I'm too dumb to actually explain what it is she does. When she talks, it's hard to follow what she says. I'm a smart individual myself, but I feel dumb around her. Also, she talks a lot. She'll tell you about how she's growing radishes in her back yard to make an amazing dish. She'll talk about her wonderful nephew and all of the fun games they play together when she sees him. She'll explain the fuel injection problem her<b> motorcycle </font></b>is having right now in molecular detail. She'll do all this in a conversation without once asking you about YOUR interests or opinions. Maggie dislikes Amanda. A lot of people don't care for her. Erin may have grown to like her over time, or at least has some sympathy for her. Amanda is just not very good socially. I've never felt strongly for her one way or the other. I'm pleasant around her, and I try to engage her in conversation as much as I can. I know that one of my techniques for downplaying my own social awkwardness is to make people laugh. I've known Amanda for two years. I have never been able to make her laugh. I don't think she's ever particularly liked me, either, but I never put a lot of thought into it. So it was odd last week at a PG rated swinger event when she put her hand in mine and walked with me. She asked if she could go for a ride on the back of my<b> motorcycle </font></b>outside the city sometime. I told her that would be fine. I go for rides often, and I wouldn't mind the company. So that's how I spent my afternoon today; riding around with Amanda. There isn't anything more to this story. It was just a strange shift in the relationship between us. We've always been cordial, but cool around each other. This was the first time the two of us had done something together. I was not sure what this meant, if anything. Amanda is an active person, and she likes getting out and doing things. I don't think I should read too much into it when she wants to do something with me. Or, it's possible that she's attracted to me. If so, it's hard to tell. For my part, I don't think I would want to become intimate with someone I have so little chemistry with. I could suggest that the two of us simply use each other, like giant playthings. I think she might agree to that. We are, after all, slutty swingers. But if things became awkward, well, I do see her everywhere. It would be like having sex with a co-worker. If you break up with her, you still have to see her. Given the social group we hang out with, and with the emphasis on communication, that sort of scenario would be understandable to most people within our group. But my communication with Amanda is not great. It's OK. It's not great. So the two of us stay in balance, and what happened today doesn't change anything. I thanked her for suggesting the activity, and I told her I had a nice time. She described the mock duck and tofu salad she was going to make for herself tonight, and told me to enjoy my evening. All in all, the experience was not as wildly uncomfortable as I imagined it could have gone. I may go riding with her again. She really likes riding bitch, and I like having a pretty girl on the back of my bike. This may be the perfect activity for us to do together, as talking is almost impossible when we're moving. |
