Last Night

So the night I decide to stop complaining about my relationships something kind of funny happens. The guy I'm seeing, I wouldn't exactly call him my boyfriend, but for the purpose of using concise terminology, we could call him that, showed up at my apartment, unannounced at 10:00 at night. Now, he's dropped by unannounced a few times before, and I really don't have a problem with it. But never that late. And after he left, I got to thinking, this is a little strange. We had been texting earlier, but then he just dropped into silence, so I went on with my evening. What I'm thinking happened is he came over to check up on me. I wouldn't say this except for the fact that he managed in the short time he was here to walk into every room of my apartment. It was as if he was looking to see if someone was here, or had been here. Like he was looking for evidence or something. Now, I'm not the cheating type, so he in all actuality has nothing to worry about. But the checking up on me thing is a bit disconcerting. The asking questions like, "Why aren't there sheets on your bed?" (because I'm doing laundry--DUH!), the snooping around, etc...is something I'm not used to.

In a way I like it. It means he actually cares about what I'm doing and whether or not I'm being faithful or loyal, however you want to put it. On the other hand, its a little stalker-ish and scary. But hey, I've always liked my men a little scary I guess. The thing about it is, my ex would never have dreamed of doing this type of thing because he didn't care what I did when he wasn't around (most of the time anyway), but this guy seems to care. I have to adjust to people who actually seem somewhat invested in a relationship rather than uncaring and cruel. So, I'm going to take the somewhat weird, but completely welcome because I'm always happy to see him, visit as a positive sign.
