Last night I had a gig, and decided to give one of the Instant Openness test mixes a run. I sprayed MX144 3x, 2 to top of head (that’s becoming a great spot for me!) and one split between wrists. It was crappy weather last night (and today too), so I bundled up in my down coat (which is probably impregnated with a stew of pheros right now from wearing it so much with pheros on!) and threw on a hat over the MX144 on my head. Ventured out.
The first thing I noticed is what a good mood I was in. I felt comfy, fun, outgoing, sociable, but in a very relaxed and laid back manner. The best of the best is how I was feeling: upbeat but not over the top, friendly but by no means clingly.
The next thing I noticed was how much people were talking in my presence. It was as if I could not get a word in edgewise. One friend, female, who I normally have very candid convos with anyway, almost immediately launched into a convo discussing her thoughts/observations r.e. Valentine’s Day and her still-new relationship. She seemed perhaps even more candid/introspective than usual. It was a great conversation for us both.
I felt very warm & cuddly towards my friends I saw that evening. I was giving out hugs and getting many in return (being it was now after midnight and technically V-Day) and I noticed that people definitely had lower personal space requirements than usual. I like my personal space, but I’m approachable too. Last night it seemed totally natural for me & the opposite party to be practically standing shoulder to shoulder in any exchange.
A newish friend practically had his arm around me as he took me to a small gallery in the back room of the club I was gigging in to show me some artwork. He stayed in close proximity, but in another conversation, mentioned he had a GF and he knows I am taken. But this wasn’t a sexual type of body contact. It was just a gushy, nice contact, like dogs or cats sleeping on each other. Just languid and normal for mammals, but not normal for humans.
Finally, I shared a cab with a friend at the end of the night. She literally did not stop talking. This was the most marked experience of my evening. There was a quality to her conversation that I had not encountered before AND she literally would not stop talking. I tried several times, literally interrupting (as one would do when one enthusiastically makes a point) and to no avail…she kept right on going. She seemed cheerful AND introspective. The mood was light but also intimate.
I also got a random rose from a guy I know. He did not have it the first time I saw him, he must have gone out to buy it and come back with it.
Congrats on the rose! Looks like you have an admirer.
