I remember this one night in particular: I met this guy at a party who gave me a ride home. When we got to my place, however, it seemed we had so much more to talk about, so I invited him out for coffee at this 24-hour cafe. Though we’re no longer in touch, I still smile when I think back to how giddy I felt that night, having coffee with this person I’d just met and was interested in, and feeling as if I was making a real, profound connection.
