I went on a date tonight. I went in with not the best attitude because I am exhausted and just not in the dating mood. But it was fun. He was cool, but there was no romantic connection I believe on either of our parts. I know he was physically attracted to me, but chemistry it was not. Good convo, laughs, etc, but something missing.
Ginger, you point out when I'm shooting myself in the foot with my date selection. He was fun, cool, and physically attractive--umm, why not give it time to see if it develops?! Fun bodes well for a couple of more dates!

Why are you willing to wait to see what grows if you meet IRL but not if you meet OLD??

Awww. If it's that much of a chore I can see why you want a break!

Wow--that's a lot to deal with. Sending prayers. Like the songs say, "Even heroes have a right to say, it's not easy, being me." I wonder if the "fake" is that on first dates you feel you can't open up about the reality of your fight?
