Sex With the Ex
Welcome back!
Ethan came back into my life a couple of weeks ago.
He’s a beautiful investment banker that I had dated briefly over the summer and broke up with around August. We hadn’t spoken since things ended. Mostly due to the fact for the past few months I had sleeping with someone in his circle of friends. Which, coincidentally was the same reason that we broke up.
With the other guy now out of the picture, I think it was easier for him to consider being friends with me. A simple email exchange grew into him lending me his parking spot for a day while my office parking garage was under construction. I stopped in to say hi as I left the office, ready to head to the airport to go home for Christmas.
Slightly awkward conversation ensued as he offered a few times to take me to the airport, making fun of me for being such an independent, hard-headed bastard that I refused to accept help from anyone. I eventually gave in and bought him dinner and as we climbed into his car, he leaned over and kissed me.
Shit. I never learn.
Of course I yelled at him and told him that it was the dumbest idea ever and he agreed. He said he just like to kiss me and would never even think about dating me again. I was actually ok with that. We kissed some more.
We made out a bit more when he dropped me off at the terminal and I offered to pick him up after his own Christmas vacation when he landed back in LA in a couple of weeks.
So, he got in last night and offered to buy me dinner for picking him up. I’ve been so tired of the Westside scene recently, I’ve really just been craving the glitz and douchebaggery of Hollywood. When I mentioned this, he made reservations for a great upscale restaurant/bar in Hollywood. After dinner, we hit up a new club, greasing the bouncer on the way in to bypass the line. God, I love investment bankers.
We both drank a little too much at the club and ended up back at his place with a pile of clothes on the bedroom floor, waking the neighbors at 3am.
I really don’t ever learn.
This is where it gets tricky though. If he calls, texts or emails within the next 3 days, I’m pretty sure that I can’t keep a casual-sex thing going because it will definitely mean that he’s still too into me and we’ll end up in the same damn place again.
I’ll keep you updated.
I wonder if Pierre’s back from Paris yet…
