Another attempt by me to woo a girl from my SACC job. Another failure as well! That makes, what...three girls from SACC that I tried to make my girlfriend and three supreme failures. Score!
Kaitlyn showed up at SACC after a couple of our staff left and were transferred. We shared a nice summer of work together, but I doubt she was ever truly interested in me. I do not think I was her type, but that did not stop her from keeping my hopes up at work when we were around.
Kaitlyn was a Spanish girl and an instant cutie on my love radar. She came during the summer, so the hours were longer, the pay was better, the mood was lighter, and the settings were all around more relaxed.
Together we read stores to the kids who were stuck with us. We played games together (with the kids too, sheesh!), we had dances, we had costume parties, we had recreational outings, we even did some water events. It was fun, and with each day it felt as though we were connecting more and more. I mean, hell, we had to see each other almost every day for an entire summer.
I remember one of the kids brought in this Spiderman book, and although the kids liked me reading about all the characters in the series, Kaitlyn would always sit right near me and act super interested in the stories too. I thought for sure that she was reaching for something connect with me on. I mean, what girl is that interested in comic book characters so that every day she is on your arm asking questions at each page turn? I'm not lying when I say she was more interested in my story times, then the kids were. She even wanted me to read and explain the characters to her, when the kids were doing other things. I thought I had something here.
Nope!
Turns out she was not ready for a serious relationship, and that was that. She acted the same way around me for as long as we worked together, but as usual nothing ever surfaced into anything meaningful.
Even after SACC I would see Kaitlyn around, but by then we had almost no connection and if I bothered to try it would have just been another failed attempt.
