The realization...

OH MY GOD.

OH MY FUCKING GOD!

I think I know what happened.

By the way this is part 2 of the previous post so if you haven't read that, Go read it now.

Ok, let's rewind back to the tips of being more touchy.

Well, in order to be more touchy with Sally, I had to be just as touchy with others. Since Handsome was there - there was no problem being 'touchy' with him except that he was at times, preoccupied with Lily. I would then turn my attention to Praline.

I thought that was a safe choice becoz Praline had arrived with Ian.

I guess I may have been I was also flirting with Praline.

Wait, wait - In my defense, I must say that Praline is one HOT mama. How could anyone NOT be flirting with her?

Now, back in the VIP room...

Perhaps I had been overtly 'touchy' with Praline. We held hands... I had my arms around her loads of times and at one point we were breathing into each other faces almost kissing or so IT MAY Seemed to others watching....

But what really transpired was different!

Yes, we held hands. Yes, I held her plenty of times. But no, I wasn't about to kiss her. And no, we weren't breathing into each other's faces, we were singing.

Really, we wuz!

Altho in a rather intimate manner but you have to give me credit for restraining, surely!

Then there was this one lyric that went,"Do you love me?" or something like that - I can't quite recall.

Praline looked at me in all seriousness and asked again,"Do you love me? Do you?"

I wanted to tell her that she was a beautiful person and that I'm sorry if I led her on and yadda yadda...

My lips moved,"No".

Then smiled,"Not yet".

She seemed happy with the answer and No, I didn't take up her offer to follow her home.

I later found out that Ian stays near her but not with her. Poor Ian is wooing her but she hasn't responded enthusiastically.

In the meanwhile, I totally fucked up with this 'touchy' business!

I sms'ed Sally to 'test' the water and although she responded, she didn't give more than the courteous reply.

Ouch.
