So Matt approaches me after Singers and says that Sharon was mad at him for "warn­ing me about her." I told him that I didn't men­tion his name when I told her that peo­ple were "warn­ing" me. He seemed to be fine with that.

At lunch, I saw Sharon and told her that I needed to talk to her. I told her that I no longer wanted to be the mid­dle man between her and Matt and what­ever was between them was some­thing I didn't want to be a part of any­more, even though I know that I will be any­way (but that's beside the point). Then she sat with her friends and we agreed to talk later.

Cut to: Later. 3rd Hour. Sharon's Eng­lish class is doing research in the media cen­ter. I hap­pen to be in the lab and I see her. So she comes and sits down with me. I finally decide to tell her that I/WE need to fig­ure out exactly what we are, in terms of what our rela­tion­ship is. She said that she didn't really know, but what she did know was that she didn't want to be "exclu­sive." I told her that I didn't either (which was more of a half-truth). Actu­ally, more true because we don't really know each other and it's obvi­ous that we're both too busy for a seri­ous rela­tion­ship at this point. Soon after this dis­cus­sion she found some way to avoid the rest of it. Then she starts talk­ing about how she hasn't got­ten my phone num­ber yet. She con­tin­ues to say that she doesn't kiss any­one until she has their num­ber. [insert laugh­ter here]

Cut to: On the way home. I raise the ques­tion again. She tells me that I can call it what­ever I want, she just doesn't want to be exclu­sive. I was con­tent with that.

Cut to: Tonight. Cham­ber Con­cert. [name omit­ted] is sit­ting up in the booth with me and we're talk­ing about Sharon. They tell me some things that are pretty strange, but not a big deal. What mat­ters is the end result, right? We shall see …
