So I live in a pretty big city, but I'm a lesbian and my therapist is also a lesbian. There's one big lgbt community center.
Last fall, I met a woman at a party of people who are on the board of the lgbt center, and then ran into her at a coffee shop with a friend. She told me, among other things, that she had just been on a kayaking trip to Colorado, and about a particular community group she works with. She was very enthusiastic towards me and mentioned her higher degrees (I thought in an effort to impress me.) She also mentioned being single. She was cute, but about 15 years older than me. But she was cool, and fun. When she left, my friend remarked on how she had been really laying it on thick. I just laughed about it and let it go.
The next day, I went to therapy and my therapist said "Oh, sorry I didn't call you back, I was on a kayaking trip in Colorado!" That was amusing in itself, but the other day my therapist was giving me advice and suggested that I get involved with this same particular community group, mentioning that her girlfriend -- who's on the board of the lgbt center -- is also involved with the group.
Pretty strange, huh? It's not that I expect to really bump into either one, but the whole thing has a twilight-zonish quality to it. I'm not sure if I should mention that I know who her girlfriend is or not -- definitely wouldn't mention that she flirted with me once, flirting is innocuous. But it's just so weird.
