go on dates

Got the number of a guy I looked at for half an hour at the club before he came over and talked to me… Went to a first date (dinner and cocktails) and a seconde date (dinner and movie and kissing) and now am with him since a few weeks… it seemed to be an urban myth, the “meeting in a club and getting together”... but now it really worked for me.

having bought movie tickets for a cinema show that i wanted to see. He didnt know where I was so i walked round to near the escalators, where I found him.

When he met me, the WAY he STARED at me told me he was so happy to see me.

due to the work nature of the meeting he had to make a bit of small talk.
He drifted off into his conversationa nd me into mine. then we went to a corner and talked a bit.

Finally it was a decent amount of time past and I could go.

We walked to the taxi stand and chatted till a cab came.
then a cocktail before the movie.
a LOT of cuddling in the very most back seat of the cinema, and then a final cocktail in a littered bar.

when we got out, I was SO hot I could hardly breathe.
Everytime he leaned in to kiss me I tingled and almost gasped. I’m sure he felt me stiffen and buck a little from all the deep kissing.

he held my hand

and took me home in a cab. and last night, I went to bed with a BIG FAT smile on my face.

- He may not be suitable, or perfect, or THE ONE. But i think of him. I like him. My hand fits in his, and our kisses work. Sadness seems so far away when he is around. Its not even the same frequency or the same things we are busy or concerned with.

but he was a great date. 10pm drinks 12am movie 3am drinks and 4am dropped home.

I want to go out with him again.

well not really.
but i have signed up on face book,
I have rekindled alot of friendships there
I have set up for a face to face scrabble game this coming friday

AND

i gave my number to J from the bar

i don’t think I remember when the last time was that a guy asked me for my number – sad huh?

but he’s asked. and messaged
and messaged.
and he said that it made his day to see me

i sign up with match.com

i volunteer at the art meuseum.

i said i want to meet people. well there are people there. I suppose I wont get very far with dating here. but its a step topward the right direction. get out there – SEE humans. meet humans. be more normal.

and since I am pretty broke, these are the things I can try to do

6)Play a Sport: tennis and golf

14)Get a Dog and Walk Everywhere: go to parks and the beach with your dog. Dogs are great people meeters!

15)Go to every Party you are invited to: even if you don’t want to go…go. You never know who you’ll meet.

18)Go to seminars: lots of people go to seminars alone; great place to start a conversation.

25)Talk to everyone, everywhere

I have beach volleyball on sat! :) @1pm

i dunno if i like them or not – but thats 40 people i’ve newly met in 2 weeks :)

Klaus at the cafe from germany
Erwin who has a torn ligament
Peter at the hair salon
and 18 other people at tennis class

that’s 21 people in one week. not bad if i do say so myself
i also sign up at a forum to do activities

will put this on the back burner first and try to focus on tennis and art for now – at least it will release my endorphins with excercise and the painting will sort out my creative juices

i dont think i will meet people but its ok I suppose
