big secrets

saturday night i attended a charity auction.  didnt buy anything but had fun.  of course i sunk $30 into the 50/50 draw and came up with a big fat zero.  so much for hoping to pay mastercard or eat this month.

the sil came along with us, naturally.  we all sat together and had a relatively good time.  she is going to costa rica with her skool in march, which is pretty awesome.  for someone who does shit all other than go annually to disneyland with her mother, i think costa rica is pretty impressive.  and bold.  this girl never takes any chances, so i was sincerely blown away.  of course her skool is paying for her to go.  naturally...because why wouldnt they?  seriously.  (i know she wouldnt go otherwise...)

after the auction was over, we all parted ways.  we went up to see our friend ross at his pub and the sil was going to meet some friends at another pub.  she was texting someone all night long and was quite cryptic about who it was she was going to meet.  at one point she was trying to convince us to go along with her to the other pub, but we were set on seeing ross and went there instead.  i asked her if she was meeting coworkers and got a very cold answer of "yes"...i suspected there was more to that story.

ch even commented on her silence yesterday and was all smiles, thinking that she was meeting a boy there.  hey, if that's true, good on her.  what i dont get is the silence about it all, the cryptic behaviour.  no, i dont expect full disclosure and details, but i dont understand why she has to be so cryptic and secretive about potential dates. 

i got thinking about that and came to a very good conclusion....

the sil is a very insecure person.  yes, she is accomplished and presumably good at her job (even tho i have my doubts).  i mean, she wouldnt be there if she sucked, right?  of course i think she knows how to kiss ass and shine when the right people are watching, but that is a post for another day.  this girl doesnt like to take many chances, but most importantly doesnt want to be seen as a failure.  you never hear too much about her not succeeding at something or not knowing anything.  so i got to thinking that she probably is dating someone, or intending to date someone, but it's at the stage where it's not quite certain if there will be any future or continued contact....so expanding more on what i do know of her, she probably doesnt even want to admit she's dating anyone because of the fear of failure and having to explain to everyone that she failed (again) at a relationship. 

it's been long speculated that she is either homosexual or asexual.  in the 12 years i've known her, i know that she dated someone for less than 6 months.  i only know because she introduced him to us.  the rest of the time since then has been a void of male suitors.  i'm sure there have been some, but obviously the relationship didnt make it out of its infancy.

in this case i think she is really afraid to be seen as a failure in the family.  i'm sure she is already insecure as it is about being perpetually single and with the added external comments and pressure from her mother, i bet it is magnified to almost horrific proportions.  at this stage in the game, i'm sure she doesnt want to get ahead of herself to then have to answer to where this person went when everyone starts asking.  i surmise that she has had a string of broken relationships.  she's not an unattractive person, but i think that once the real personality shines through and the apron strings are revealed, guys lose interest. 

who can blame her for being cautious?  i cant, but at the same time, i fail to understand how this is more protected than the kennedy assassination.
