Analyzing the situation

So I'm the type of person that looks back on past events and try to figure out what I could've done to make the situation better. Lately there have been a lot of situations that have been going through my mind where the situation would've been way better if I didn't act the way I did. The worst situation is realizing you had a opportunity to do something and not realizing it until five minutes after the face.

For example, when a random BZ is giving you hints to she wants to have sex and you don't realize they wanted to do it until the next day. Ohhhhh if I had a nickel for everytime that happened.

So this past Thursday I met this new co-worker at our company party. She was a pretty lady who just graduated from state with a degree in business. I didn't get to talk to her much that day, but on Friday I wanted to get to know here better. Eventually some co-workers found out that she has a boyfriend. And usually when I hear they have a boyfriend, I lose all motivation. I'm not the type of person to be the "other man" to somebody. So I didn't think much about it anymore.

Then what happens, I end up running into her when I had to drop off a package to another department. When I ran into her, she was kind enough to help me find the cubicle I was trying to deliver the package. And at that point, we got into a nice little conversation. I got to know a little bit more about her, see what she was doing this weekend. It wasn't quiet that was for sure, the conversation was definitely active. When she asked me what I was all about this weekend, I told her about this art show that I was planning on attending. We were talking from the moment we ran into each other to the moment we left the parking lot. Now at that point I just told her to have a good weekend. The minute I got into my car, I realized what I could've done to make the situation better.

What could've improved

Instead of telling her have a good weekend. I could've asked her for her number and invited her to the art show. She really looked engaged into the conversation, and I think she was expecting for me to say more than have a good weekend. I also should of suggested kicking it sometime. Not only that, but when I said have a good weekend, it sounded like it was forced out. I could've sounded more smoother when saying by, like "I'll see you later" or something.

When I got into my car, I definitely was kicking myself. Now even though she has a boyfriend, you can't have too many friends. But maybe I'm just overeacting. There'll probably be more opportunities when I get to talk to her. It just sucks when you feel like you had a golden opportunity and you didn't do nothing about it.

Its time to stop the could of, would of, should of and started saying I did the dayam thing.
