It is still awkward and weird.  I’m just trying to come to terms with the situation because I’ll have to witness it the most out of all of us here.  

not trying to go through her closest friends….ok, she said it. doesn’t mean i believe it…because i just don’t like it.

Just had a quick convo with Courtney.  I asked her a few questions, and here’s what I got:

ME: So everyone keeps asking me “She broke up with Matthew because she always wanted to spend time with him, and he never wanted to see her.  Why is she with someone who’s an hour away?”

Courtney: Honestly, it’s just so dramatically different.  With Matthew, I had to almost force him to hang out with me, even if he was just five minutes away.  It was like pulling teeth just to get him to eat dinner with me or something.  He just never wanted to do anything with me.  But look how many times I’ve already seen Zack, and he IS an hour away.  Each time he’s come over, it’s been his idea.  I’m not even asking for that.  He WANTS to come see me, and spend time with me.  He WANTS to spend time with my family.  He hung out with us all weekend.  I could never get Matthew to spend time with my family, for almost the whole 7 months.  And I feel so comfortable with his family.  They’re so similar to mine, and I just feel right with them.  I always felt awkward and like I was gonna do or say something wrong with Matthew’s family.  I don’t know why, but that’s how I felt.  So with Zack, it just feels right.  I can see he wants to spend time with me, like I want to with him.  It’s not so one-sided.

ME: The other thing is that really just no one gets it.  Like I don’t even understand it.  But I see that you’re happy.

Courtney: Yeah, I mean I didn’t expect it at all.  I definitely didn’t mean for it to happen, especially with Matthew’s and Maura’s best friends.  I’m not trying to go through the people she’s closest with.  But I don’t know.  And we’re so different in so many ways, but somehow it just feels right.  I feel so natural with him.  Like we’ve been together for way longer than just a few days.  I can’t explain that either… it just feels right.

So, my commentary on this, is just “WOW.  that’s a whole new perspective, coming from her mouth.”  I don’t know how it’ll come out in y’all reading my re-telling, but I figured I’d share it with y’all.

what is this world coming too? it’s like their’s secrets and lies! it’s all being kept secret, and they still haven’t even told matthew. and that just made me even more angry, because his friendship means the most to me…..grrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Why is she okay with him skipping school? first he was there on a wednesday, and now a sunday night? I mean, i don’t really know her super well, but does anyone else think this is like way out of character for her?

Yeah, i find it super weird as well.  She’s normally so focused on school, that she never does anything with us, as Maura made clear to me last night.  But now, he can come distract her anytime?  What’s that about?  I really think this will die down some when she starts having tests and what not and actually needs to hole up in her tower.  Until then, I’m staying at Victoria’s.

He’s here… AGAIN! I don’t understand this and I don’t like it.

As I informed Maura earlier today, I had a brief conversation with Colin on this situation.  I will now provide this blog that same information.  Feel free to draw your own conclusions on the sanity of those involved.

With no further unnecessary introductions, here is

A Logical Argument from a Male’s Perspective (In Text Message Form):

Liz: It’s just so shocking and weird and stupid.  Idk how to take it.   OH SHIT, They kissed.

Colin: Unless something huge is going on that I don’t know about, it just seems like a normal situation…

Liz: They’ve been “talking” for two weeks, barely.  This is just so fast.  I still can’t wrap my head around it.  I mean, it’s weird because she wouldn’t kiss Matthew until they “defined” their relationship.

Colin: Some people move a lot faster than us haha

Liz: Really now?  

Colin: Yes actually

…

(blah blah blah sidetracked conversation about not Zack and Courtney)

Liz: So yeah.  I’m kind of curious to see if they can make this work.  He can’t come visit her every week.  It’s not practical.  

Colin: Just let it be… you can’t control it anyway.

Liz: I know … but I wanna!

Colin: Seriously… it’s just two people starting a relationship.  It’ll be fine.  Just don’t worry about it.

…

yada yada yada he doesn’t actually think they’re going to last long either, and wants us to stop worrying about it.  basically because it’ll crash and burn on its own.

While I’m sitting waiting for this CMST prof. to show up at her office hours, I’ll get things going.  There is only one word that can correctly describe this situation for everyone: confused.  I mean… what is going on?!?!  Zack Adams and Courtney Gauthreaux?!??!?!  No one could have EVER predicted this one.  Maura feels she should have seen it from Zack’s end before, but oh well.  We’re often oblivious to things in our environment.  But Courtney liking him?  No.  No.  No… Courtney who?  This doesn’t make sense at all.  So the only thing I can come up with is that all it takes is “I like you, Courtney” to get her to say “yes.”  Which personally I find kind of sad.  I mean, I understand that she’s lonely or whatever, since her breakup with Matthew 3 months ago, but of ALL the people on this ENTIRE planet, his best friend!?!?!  REally?  Whatever, you have no “control” over these things.  She “likes talking to him.”  But stop and take a look at yourself.  Look at him.  Do you honestly think y’all will mesh well once all this “OOOOOOOH you like me…” shit dies down?  If you do, you’re a fool.  But here’s a prime opportunity to prove me wrong.  The authority we really need on this is Dawn.  She can tell us what we all already know to be true.  That this is just not gonna work.  Everytime I start thinking about this my head just goes “poiaweurjlksdjfadshjgsdjflkajsdfslkjadflkdsj” and then I think about food.  SPeaking of, I need breafas.  I guess that’s the end of this rant, guys.  Feel free to contribute.
