Okay, things have taken a serious turn for the worse since I last posted. Remember how I suspected Lindsay might be seeing someone else? Well, it's not a suspicion any more. It's absolutely confirmed. The way she confirmed it to me was the freaking worst, most cruel way anyone could ever find out their girlfriend was seeing someone else. I caught her having sex with her ex-boyfriend, the local guy that I mentioned last time. The same one I thought she might be seeing. She had the audacity to have sex with him in the same bed as we made love not even two months ago. She left her blinds open, and even the window, so I had a perfect view of the betrayal and I could even hear it. God. She didn't even show any sense of shame in what she was doing. It was so disgusting. I scribbled her a note, telling her I knew what was going on and that nobody messes with my emotions like that, and that it was definitely over. That was two days ago, and I still haven't heard an apology. If I don't hear from her, I'm gonna have to follow this guy and figure things out that way. She drove me to this. There's one small positive note I can take away, I guess. Being forced to investigate all this stuff has made me a master people search sleuth who knows all the best people search engines around. I guess once this is all settled I can help people find someone who has hurt them just like Lindsay has hurt me. Since my teaching job has fallen through, I could just do the background search thing. Oh man. What am I gonna do about Linds? I don't even feel like myself anymore. I need to find my origin.

I think Lindsay might be dating someone new. I'm not sure, but I've seen some guy at her place a couple times now.  I'm trying not to jump to conclusions, but she hasn't bothered introducing him to me when I've been outside. I had to stay in for a while because the weather was bad, and that was kind of hard, but it's sunny today so I'm outside again. Lindsay isn't home, but my other neighbor is. I think he has a girl over. She kind of looks like Lindsay, but I already called her work and she's definitely there so I know it's not her. Meanswhile, when I looked up all of her exes, I discovered that one of them is local, and single (as far as I can tell). I'm trying to see if the guy hanging around her place might be him or not. So far I haven't had much luck getting a picture of him. People search engines are great, but they don't necessarily come up with pictures. I'm expanding my person search efforts to include some of the social networking sites. Most of those have pictures.
Did I tell you I lost my teaching job? I guess I took too many sick days or something. I mean, I was legitimately ill...broken hearts count! But they reassigned my classes, so I've been looking for work, something I can do at home hopefully. I've been looking up good stuff on how to do a proper internet job search, and that's been helping. Valentine's day has not been. All my diet efforts have been undone by all the pink and red candy I see everywhere. I just keep buying it. Sigh. So, here I am, no job, no girl, classes getting harder and harder. It's all Lindsay's fault too. I really think that new guy might be her ex. I'm going to keep looking for him. I'll let you know what I find out.

Okay, so, things went from bad to worse with Lindsay. We ended up having this huge fight where she called me a co-dependent and said that I was smothering her and that we needed to take "a break." I've been devastated and just totally depressed. My work out routine backfired and I've gained a ton of weight. So much that I've been looking into more serious solutions. Found this article on phentermine assist for weight loss. I'm seriously thinking about it. Gotta get help getting off this couch...

Meanwhile, classes and work have been really hard to deal with. I've been turning to people search more and more just to fill my time. I wanted to see which ones of them might still be single and still in the area because I have this feeling that our "break" has less to do with me being supposedly co-dependent and more to do with her hooking back up with an ex. I decided to look up all of Lindsay's ex-boyfriends. One of them was in the military, and I found this good site to help me find military people. I'm also learning more about how to do a really thorough background check on people. There's another new person in the complex Lindsay and I live in and I'm pretty sure he's probably some kind of fiend. I didn't like the way he was talking to Lindsay. Anyway, I'm going to go try and at least attempt my homework. I've been taking my laptop outside to work--better to keep an eye on the neighbors. Lindsay said I was spying on her, but really, it's the new guy I'm worried about. You just never know about people....

Okay, so I was all set to pop the question to Lindsay, and then a few days before Christmas she sits me down to have a "where we're at" talk. I don't know if she knew what I was planning or what, but she more or less put me in my place. She talked about how she really liked our relationship and where it was going but how she doesn't like to rush into anything. She talked about how hard it is to maintain a full time relationship while in school and working (which yeah, has been hard for me) and how she appreciates how much time I make for her but how she's worried I'm not making enough time for me. Sometimes when I talk to her I feel like I'm talking to a therapist. Which, sure, she is one, but she's not MY therapist! Anyway, the whole thing made me reconsider the proposal. I still have the ring and still think I want to marry her, but she's probably right that the timing is just off. We haven't actually been together that long and I do tend to be impulsive about things...look how fast I started school!

One thing I'm sure about is people search. I've been finding it more and more useful lately--it's been a great distraction from work, school and (now) love troubles. I found this great people search blog --- glad to know I'm not the only one addicted to people searching!  

Meanwhile between the holidays, rushing around for school (both kinds) and my semi-depression over my talk with Lindsay, I've been eating like a pig and gaining weight. Fortunately I found this great article about keeping new year's resolutions that will help me get my health back on track.  Speaking of, I'm off to start day one of my new work out routine. Later!

So everything is going so well in my life, I have to pinch myself! Usually I am really down at this time of the year, with holidays and all. But Lindsay has changed that all around for me. I am planning to ask her to marry me on New Years Eve (she doesn't know about this blog, or else I couldn't spill the beans here, of course). I have been saving up for a ring and have a beautiful one all picked out, and should have the down payment by the end of this month. I am so excited! Linds and I just got back from Utah, we visited her mom for Thanksgiving. Her family is so warm and I felt like I had been a member all my life. A perfect fit. That's what sealed the deal for me and got me thinking about popping the question. I have a couple more cool people search sites to share with you all, I know this is the time of year people really want to find people so thought it would be a good time to share my top people search sources:
find people
find a person
And for all you single people, take a look at GiantLists.com - Online Dating this list will have you rolling around with laughter (you know I love this site). Until next time...

Hey! Phew, I can't believe it's been a whole month since my last post. I have been crazy busy and actually don't have that much time to chat here anyways. I'm actually in between classes. School is going great, and teaching couldn't be better. The best part is, Lindsay. She is so amazing. I think she might be the one. No no, I don't want to say it because I might jinx it, even though I'm not really superstitous or anything like that. Before I head back I just wanted to post some cool sites I thought you guys might enjoy.....

What's up, all? I'm good - better than good actually. I'm great. The reason for this is that I finally had the guts to suck it up, and go talk to Lindsay. Turns out she's not only a nice girl, but also a (wait for it)... SHRINK! HA, right?! I was talking with her about how I'm that guy that all my friends come and get advice from, and she was saying how she thinks I should go get a degree in psychology, and for some reason... when she said it - it seemed like a good idea! So, I enrolled in the local state college and the semester starts next week. I am only teaching twice a week now, and going to school full time the other three days (and one night - ugh). I hope I can keep up with it. I guess we'll see. Worst case scenario, my job said I could come back to teaching full time whenever I want. In a totally unrelated story, I was showing Linds about people search (without mentioning that I people searched her - although I think she suspects), and she's totally into it! She is going to start to do background checks on all her clients as to make sure they don't have a history they're not telling her about involving raging murderous psychosis. She then, in turn, introduced me to this site about consumer advocacy. It's a great site with a lot of good, unbiased information... so... that's cool (not as cool as people search, but whatev). Ok. I've gotta go buy some trapper keepers.

Hey guys, I am back. I can't believe that I am posting again so soon. I really thought that I would have bailed on this whole blogging venture. I am writing again today because, as the title suggests, I found a friend. My new friend is my new neighbor. Her name is Lindsay and she is HOT. I totally have this raging crush on her, but I'm not sure if she's even aware of my existence. I mean, of couse she knows I am alive, but I'm pretty sure she doesn't find me attractive. Why should she? I'm such a dweeb. I'm also such a creeper. I totally lookd her up on MySpace and Facebook. I know that's fine, but it gets worse. When those sites didn't yield enough info for me, I went further and did a people search on her. Seriously, I know its weird, but it's so easy to find people online. I search for people all the time, especially the girls I am really into. I gotta find out what they like, so I can put the moves on them. When searching for people is so easy to do these days, why not? I'm on my freaking couch all day! I should get up off the couch though. I don't think Lindsay likes a couch potato. I'll keep you updated on my torrid love life. Ha Ha.

I actually wanted to call my whole blog "Kevin's Couch", but apparently someone already has a blog with that name. Lamness. I wanted to call it that for a couple reasons. One is that I am a very good listener, and all of my friends come to me for advice. They all tell me I should become a therapist or something, but I dunno; it sounds like I'd have to do a lot of school. I'm not much of a school guy. Actually, I work at a school. I'm an elementary school art teacher. I'm just not a "go to school" guy. The other reason I wanted to call my blog "Kevin's Couch" is because most of the time, I'm writing from my couch on my laptop. Let's see, I love kids; I kinda have to. I'm single and on the prowl for the hot divorced moms at my school.....I was kidding. That's gross. Anyways, I'll be back later when I have something to say. I just wanted to this thing going. Later.
