The Letdown

Before I start sharing my innermost feelings I want to clarify that I'm not some doom and gloom, emotional type because I know I have talked about my romantic life (more like romantic failings) quite often, I just have to come up with some more blog posts and this is the first topic that came to mind. There's this girl that I met this past April at my Senior year prom who I had a short "fling" with. I really didn't even plan on going to prom because I hadn't asked anybody and I had already been the year before, and I thought if you've been there once then there's no point in doing the same thing again. Of course, I decided to go at the last possible minute and ended up having a blast like I always do at those type things, dancing the night away (badly I might add). When dancing with one of my friends and her other friends I met this girl Alex. I thought she was so much like me because she started "dance battling" me. I would do a dance move, and she would repeat it or make it better. This went on all night and I really liked this girl (as lame as all of that sounds). She was pretty, she had a sense of humor (which is a very important character trait to me). So naturally her and me started seeing each  other, and I found out we were both very similar yet very different from each other. We got in so many arguments, not necessarily out of anger, but just disagreement on every single thing. We were off and on for several months and recently I just ended it for good. She probably didn't believe this, but I told her that it wasn't that I didn't want a relationship with her, it was just that I couldn't necessarily see one working out in the long term. I meant every word of it.
