Dating Game
To continue the process of recovery from a failed marriage, I decided it was time to get back into the dating game. It had been years since my marriage and close to a decade since I had last gone out on a date. I was a late bloomer with only fighting spirit to show for it. My friends happily obligated and set me up on a number of blind dates and yes, I must say, I make a great first date.
Some of my dates have said I was great to talk to and always funny. I was always asked out again. But I have never gotten past the second date. The running joke is that I’m a serial dater by default because things would start off fine but would never go anywhere. I realized that it wasn’t the snap dating –which I found to be such a chore –but the intimacy laced with chemistry that I wanted.
