Have returned home from a date in the nick of time to squeeze in a posting for the 10th- it's 11.45pm. Phew. This is important if you are doing NaBloPoMo and have to blog everyday, for a month.
Just had a date with a muso type guy; he still looks and dresses as if he is 26. Long hair, little dress sense: leather jacket, black jeans, t-shirt of indeterminate colour. Financially not in a position I'd hope to be in at 49 but still. . . a certain attraction there because he had an aura of coolness.
Afterall, he is a published author, he is still in a band, spent the 90s in "Indie bands that lost money, rather than made it", is scornful and sarcastic of the dating process, and writes emails that are entertaining and addictive.
Must be the aura of coolness and the fun emails that kept me hanging in there. Unfortunately, in real life the attraction was just not physical. At all.
It's such a shame because I had the most fun I've had on a date in a long time; for three hours. But there is absolutely no attraction there for me: zilch.
Sigh.
Two guys you've liked and had a good time with, even though there's no attraction, is a pretty good start. I think you're on the right track.
