So post-Doug, I’ve had a few more forgettable dates. Nice guys but not much chemistry and not many shared interests. Recently, though, I found a catch (or so it seemed). Tall, handsome, mid-30s, life together, loves to travel, enjoys the finer things in life, also likes snowboarding. He asked me out for drinks and we met up on a work night for happy hour.
He was 20 minutes late (said he accidentally went to a different bar) but once he sat down and we were chatting the conversation was flowing well. We were laughing, playing off each other and on to our second drink. Next thing I know, he’s finished his beer (I still have half a glass of wine left) and he grabs the bartender to get the check (what? It’s been 30 minutes total since he’s arrived …) I’m still sipping on my wine and as SOON as I finish my last drop, he says: “Shall we?” … uh again, huh?
We leave and happen to be walking the same way, apparently we arrive at his car and he turns, gives me a hug and says “bye”quickly and off into the night he goes …
What just happened? Can’t say I’ve ever encountered someone who couldn’t get away from me fast enough.
Another day in the dating life.
