An interesting twist
I have been so busy! I wish I could tell you what I’ve been up to, but I’m trying to keep this website as anonymous as possible. So I apologize for the lack of details.
Meanwhile, (and although I haven’t had the time to really take matters into my own hands just yet) things have taken a pretty funky turn.
About 2 or 3 weeks ago, I got back in touch with an old friend of mine by e-mail. He’s completely unrelated to Mr. Synchronicity, by the way. I have to admit I had tried to keep the Synchronicity guy out of my head in the past couple of months, because I really had too much going on already. Then as my old friend and I started writing to each other, I’ll admit that the thought of him actually being a nice potential boyfriend crossed my mind. Especially since he’s a lot more reachable and thus an easier target than Mr. Synchronicity and he’s not too bad looking either. I got a little carried away for a few days (lol), and immediately realized I had to cool off. I wanted to invite him out for lunch or coffee, but didn’t want to do this with the wrong state of mind. I’ve been single for months now, and I’m slowly starting to miss having a boyfriend. So I decided to give myself a few days to chill and figure out which direction I really wanted to go. He is an old friend after all, and he could simply remain a friend if I want to.
Then a quirky little synchronicity happened, which was surprisingly linked to … my old friend!
The day I had decided to cool off for a few days, I had quickly read over the mails we had exchanged so far, and suddenly wondered where exactly he was living at the moment as he hadn’t mentioned it yet. Then I remembered him telling me 2 years ago that he had moved to a certain town not too far from here, and I randomly wondered what zip code that was. But I had to go and I couldn’t be bothered to look it up. so I closed my laptop and left. The next day, I received an e-mail from someone … it was a guy I had e-mailed a while back about a dining table for sale. The dining table was to be picked up by the buyer at his place, so I had asked him where exactly he was located. A few days passed, and as I got no response, I assumed that the table got sold and didn’t think more of it. So then, exactly one day after wondering about my old friend’s address, I got a message from this seller saying: “Hi, I’m so sorry for the delay. I’m in name of the town + zip code” – I gasped – There it was, right in front of me: the town and zip code I had been too lazy to look up the day before! The place where my old friend lives! Hah! I giggled. This was neat.
I jumped to conclusions and assumed: “Hey, this synchronicity thing must be pointing at whoever could be a good match for me. So it’s not necessarily all about one exclusive soulmate or something.” So I contacted my old friend and asked him if he wanted to meet up and grab something to eat together. (I also found it incredibly ironic how that one e-mail mentioning his town + zip code was actually about a DINING table). So anyway, we decided that a place next to his work would be the most practical, as my schedule is much more flexible than his. So he gave me his office address. It didn’t hit me right away, but I realized a few hours later that it is in fact only 2 streets away from where Mr. Synchronicity works. And on top of it, Mr. Synchronicity’s work is actually right on my way there. I was a little baffled, and decided to look at a map and see if there was any other way to get there without passing in front of Mr. Synchonicity’s work. Well, there isn’t. It’s right there, and there’s no way to avoid it. My stomach cramped up a little as I realized that it all inevitably spins right back at him!!
My friend and I haven’t decided about the exact day yet, as I’m still pretty busy myself, and he’s got some stuff going on at the moment too. So it will probably be some time in the next few weeks. It would be the icing on the cake if I actually bumped into Mr. Synchronicity on my way there, but let’s not jump to conclusions yet. Whatever the case though, I’m sure this new series of events isn’t just a coincidence, and I’m pretty confident that there’s more to come.
Hi there, Firstly thank you to you and Gail for your comments to me and sorry not been back in touch sooner so say this. I too have had a really busy time of late.
, the six degree of separation rule? I personally would like to hear you did bump into Mr Sync cos I would really like to find that maybe he has had the same stuff happen to him about you and we could have a ray of hope understanding all this Sync stuff and maybe a wedding invite….you just never know whats in store eh!! The best of luck for what might unfold even if Mr Sync doesn’t appear maybe this will be a new episode in your life to enjoy!! I, only this evening have had an opportunity through a mutual work friend to perhaps make some contact with my Mr Sync and although I am a little nervous at the thought I am strong enough to handle it now for sure and I am desperate to get to the bottom of all this even if the outcome is an anti-climax and somewhat boring even! I have said no to the invite for next Friday at the moment but will wait now to see if any ’signs’ appear to change my mind on this.
Also I am new to this so apologies if I don’t reply in the correct place!
Wow! to your new twist, I know exactly what you mean when where ever you turn all points back to Mr Sync somehow!! I must admit almost all of mine (with the exception of a few) do too! ……I believe if you are meant to bump into Mr Sync you will.. and there will be nothing you can do to prevent it….it will be because it is time.. on the other hand maybe this old friend since he is close by location will in turn lead you to someday at some point meeting Mr Sync again in a coincidence way….
Can’t wait to hear if more sync happen to you.
Best wishes to all…. A
