I'm working over time and there is nothing to do so I'm going to vent about my dating life as that what i've spent the majority of my free time on last week.
Last week I had a date with an as yet un-nicknamed girl. I was a responsible boy and brought along some protection. As it was the second date and didn't want to look like I was expecting sex I folded the wallet over the condoms and left the wallet with my shoes, keys and cell phone. Things didn't get so hot and heavy that I needed them and I went on my merry way after the date came to an end. I decided to go to Sobeys for a midnight snack and to pick up some lunch. When I pulled out the wallet and opened it to get money the condoms fell to the floor. Gaining me a few strange looks.
So far that has been the hight-light of our 'relationship' and I haven't mentioned it to her about it yet.
She is one of these people who like to plan far in advance. During the date she asked if she should take a shift on the weekend as it would be the only time we could see each other. This is freaking me out a little bit as I would never ask if I should pass up a shift to be with someone after a couple of dates. If she made plans with me and then passed up the shift I wouldn't have an issue but it was more like she was asking permission. Now she is trying to get the August long weekend off so we can be together.
I enjoy talking to her but it's been gone from an enjoyable experience to an daily obligation in less than a week. We have a date on Tuesday after work. On one hand I feel that if I'm already venting there is very little hope and should cut my losses now. On the other hand I've never been good at breaking a date, preferring the more passive aggressive approach. Knowing that there will be some nice cuddling involved on the date is another factor in making me think that I should go. I can always refuse to make another date a (in a non passive aggressive manner just to get out of that) if things don't go well. Who knows things make change for the better.
