So I am doing the online dating thing. It is probably a little soon for me, but I do think it is better for me to start dating at a point when I am going to still have the lessons of my last relationship front and center in my mind. I went on 2 dates this weekend. One was pretty dreadful. All he wanted to talk about was politics and work. He never asked me one personal question. And then he started chewing on the plastic bottle cap at dinner. I am not a nitpicky person for the most part. My last boyfriend had lots of quirks and flaws, but this just struck me as so not the right person for me. Date 2 was better. I got smarter and met him for coffee. Nice enough guy, but no chemistry.
I really hate the online thing. I am so sceptical of everyone on there. Probably good to be. I won;t give out my phone number or e-mail address, just too much you don't know about someone. I did text message last nice with a nice seeming guy that lives a 4 hour plane ride away. A widower with 6 kids.
Uggggghhhh. I really don't like the dating process. I wish I did. And I especially don't like the idea of meeting someone online. But at this point, it feels like one of the only options to meet someone new.
