dim-sum
I went out on a limb and went to another meet-up, the first with this group and my first in more than a year. We went to this great dim-sum restaurant in the international district. First dim-sum ever and I must say quite an experience and I liked it!
Any sparks with any women there? Nope. Don't get me wrong, there were some nice ladies there, just nobody I can see myself hanging around with. I am at the point where I think I expect too much. Only problem with that is I have met fantastic women I would hang out with on the internet so I know they are out there but I just haven't met them.
I was more painfully aware of my interaction and the interaction of the other women. What works and what doesn't. I sat next to one woman I didn't like at all. Very much all about her and making sure she was heard on every subject and it was very annoying. Perhaps it is because I am a Leo and she was stealing my thunder, lol. Nah, that wasn't it. I just didn't like her. To the left of me were two ladies that I liked well enough and enjoyed the conversation and company. Both very soft spoken so much so I could barely hear one of them unless I strained and filtered out all the background noise which is very hard for me to do. Very shy and soft spoken generally isn't my style. I think I scare people who are like that with my loud and (sometimes) obnoxious style. There was also a woman across from me that seemed like she may have been very nice tho hardly said to words. Very shy but I could kind of tell that if you broke through the shell she may just have something to say.
It was good for me and I will go again. I just need to get out of the house and be social more. Dust off the ol' skills, ya know.
