The adventure chronicles

[AFWAW]

So, we had our date last night. I dressed nice and went to pick her up. No sooner had we left her apartment did she start asking questions about the woman I deleted off FB. I said, really? Is this the way you want to start our date? Can't we just go out and have a good time? She stopped. So we went out to a nice place to eat dinner. The conversation was ok, mostly about how she wants to see my daughter more often and how she'd like to start taking her every other week? I said, I would have to think about that one(that's a lot of back and forth for my daughter, especially during the school year).

She complained a lot about work. She told me about going out to a club this past Thursday and how some guy asked her to dance and she descibed him as a middle-aged guy with a perm and a flannel shirt? What kind of club is she going to? She said, that's what I've been reduced to. (is she trying to tell me that I'm the best she can do?) I didn't respond. She also asked about what we were going to do on Christmas day. I said, what do you mean? She said, how are we going to work it? I said, work what? She said with our daughter? I said, what do you want? She said, well can I come and pick her up? I said, on Christmas? I offered to let her come over in the afternoon to dinner. She accepted and said that this would be the first year that she didn't get to see daughter on Christmas morning.

On the ride home, we had some light convesation and she all the sudden said, that she should have been there for me when I got back from Iraq and that she hated herself for what she did. I didn't say anything. I dropped her off at her apartment and that was that.

So, all in all, it wasn't a awful date but it seems like the only thing we have in common is that we are both in Air Force and have a daughter together. I didn't have a bad time. I guess I'm still pretty wary with regard to giving my heart back to this woman. Not to sound like a girl but as Chuck Woolery from the Love Connection used to say, I didn't feel a spark.
