Groups of 3

So I'm pretty sure after not hearing from her this past week (and her being home from school) that I no longer sorta-kinda-have-a-thing with a Freshmen but-not-really-cuz-shes-away. And once thats established, I am officially single even though technically I was never not. And once again we are dealing with the rule of 3.

Whats the rule of 3, you ask?

Quite simply, when you are seeking out love, sex, affection, a fuck buddy, etc. they are nowhere to be found. Once you find somebody, the rest of the female world picks up on the scent like a wolf. Pretty soon, you have three girls. Last month, you were searching craigslist personals in multiple cities nearby while your roommate (read best friend crashing for summer) mocks you. But hes mocking you because right now he's in the middle of his 3, and he's working all of 'em on different days of the week. Next week all 3 are gone and you find yourself in the middle of three.
Well I was only aware of two that time but I think I just let an opportunity go that would have been three. Wait... there was... OoO yep. 3 God damn. Worse yet about the rule of 3 is in the middle of a relationship, the scent of boredom is also picked up on, and you can end up with 3 new or 2 new and the old, depending on level of boredom. The rule of 3 is as constant as pi.

But I digress....

So here is the issue I am faced. Figure out who the three are, and try to mitigate losses to stop this damned cycle. I've done it once before... well for two years anyways. Then it started up again.

So... now i find myself dissecting every conversation I have with a girl, trying to figure out if its only a matter of time before I have created another mess. That's the problem with dating; I have no idea how to casually date someone. Whats the point of casually dating someone? Go out with the guys and then buy a sex doll. Its basically the same thing, only you can fart.
So in my head im also evaluating their potential. And also if they could raise my kids. You never know what crazy things might happen.

Could the girl texting me from William & Mary who actually goes to ODU (still not sure why shes there on a Wednesday night) be one of them?

Potential: 9 / 10
Raise Kids: Yes, nanny
Plus: Cooks, cleans, intelligent, political, gorgeous + 10
Minus: Jokingly referred to as my daughter since i was 16 and she was 14. -1

Or the girl I've been chatting on AIM with all night who i recently reconnected with after not seeing for 3 years? She has a boyfriend, that would complicate things, so I hope shes not one.
Then again, shes pretty awesome. Like.. a mol of awesomeness resides within her, but i digress.
Potential: 8 / 10
Raise Kids: I'd have perfect children, im pretty sure.
Plus: Intelligent, goofy, great taste, cute as a button +10
Minus: Currently dating someone, also has a thing for rednecks I think -2

Maybe the girl that I think its over with really isn't over, shes just really really busy like she claims. That would put her back in the running.
Potential: 7/10
Raise Kids: Ehh, I'm pretty sure.
Plus: Witty, geeky, beutiful, spunky, gorgeous, cute, almost perfect + 13
Minus: Spoiled, would need higher salary, doesn't call -5

So theres 3, but I can already see at least 15 other potentials if the world spins a certain way.

I need a sorting hat for girls. Put on this hat, and hold this fiddle.

I hope you don't mind me reading, btw. I find your blogs very interesting! But if you don't mind me asking, how on earth did you find mine?

I used to se emyself as farmer rather than a minder of 3. You need to meet a number of girls who are possibles. At first you just be nice. This is sowing the seed in the field. As you run into these girls, you start to build up a friendship and a rapour with them this represents the crops growing in the field. What you aim to do is be flirty enough, but not coming on very strong - be interesting. Make them want to find out more about you.
Then when the pickings are right, you can harvest each field one by one. A foolproof plan. It just took me a long time to work it out!
