An Attempt
First, to all those who complain I don’t LJ enough, tough. Most of the time I have nothing worth while to write so I don’t. The occasional event worthy enough to be recorded just didn’t.
About three weeks ago I posted a profile on gay.com. I’m beginning to try a little a harder at finding someone. Everyone has said gay.com isn’t the best place to meet people, but I look at it as a starting point. My first and last date was in 2000, so it’s way past time for me to actively seek another.
Cue the boy. He saw me on riding on the bus the other week, and then saw my profile on gay.com. He wrote me a nice email and soon after I replied. After a more little emailing, we met today for some coffee near campus (he is also a graduate student). We spent about an hour talking and learning more about each other. However by the end, I didn’t feel any chemistry between us. I was not physically attracted to him (partly because he was just *too* tall, 6’4”), but more importantly I didn’t feel we really connected on any mental wavelengths either. I kind a hope he felt the same and doesn’t email me asking to go out, I’m not looking forward to saying no.
However on the flip side, it was an attempt, something I should be doing more often. I don’t expect every attempt to work out, so I’m not terribly disappointed.
