dating
All about dating. First dates, three years into a relationship, Tinder, and more.
A wayward Soul
Here I am, playing with tarot cards and listening to the saddest indie rock music made... I can't help but wonder where I go wrong with love. One can only watch Sex In the City so many times. Maybe the standard love language has changed. The lost feeling I have inside when I think of how my relationships end, is a cause for concern. Of course the average trust issue syndrome is to be accounted for. Lets not forget that online dating is the new wave. I once read an article that all the brick and mortar retail shops will eventually turn into physical dating sites. I for one would not go against that, seeing how I am not fond of the social media hook ups. Then I tell myself, this is why you are single. You have to go with the times, ride the wave, be one with the edge of life. Then I remember I am in my thirties and social security is getting scarce. No matter how many times I shuffle my cards and change the spread, one thing is for certain, they don't stutter.

It started on that elevator. That was the day I opened up to Alina and told her the truth about what I thought of her. I was pleasantly surprised when she accepted my request to go on a date two months later, and now, I could not be happier than I am now. It had been four months since that first date and last night, I asked her if we could be exclusive. She had agreed and now, a new romance has been gained. Sure, I had been mean to her, to the point of making a complete jerk of myself, but she was willing to forgive me for that.

Billy: What are you thinking? Christina: That I wish I was as good at love as I am at working. I wish I didn't leave people behind so often.

John and I talked for a bit and figured out when and where to have our first date. We settled on a little Italian Restaurant that's about 15 minutes from my house. I used to go there with my parents when I was a kid. Everything on the menu is authentic and the recipes have been passed down for generations. I can't wait for tomorrow night! As I think about this date, I begin to overthink about what I'm going to wear and if it's going to impress him. I need to look HOT! I want to constantly be on his mind. Wow that sounds desperate. I have to reel it in so I don't lose myself. I will wear my favorite red dress with the slightly lowered neckline, my pearl earrings and necklace set that my grandmother gave me two Christmases ago, and some cute black heals with sparkly straps. I'll make sure to wear my sexiest perfume and definitely go easy on the makeup. I want him to really see me and my natural beauty.

It had been two months since his apology and things had legitimately improved, much to my surprise. William was no longer rude to me and the only time we had argued was over the specifics of a client project we were working on. His new, friendly demeanor did not go unnoticed by our coworkers, either. What a surprise it was that we could work together and not fight. I smiled slightly at this, feeling better than ever about my personal and work life. Stepping into that same elevator, I came face to face with William again. I smiled slightly up at him before stepping forward.

First dates are nerve-racking. Regardless of whether you've met the person you're seeing on a dating app, at a bar on a night out, or at work, regardless of whether you're close friends or strangers, a first date will likely consist of lots of anxiety and overthinking.

There is a lot to be said for pretending. It can help you escape a multitude of pain. You know exactly what I am talking about. You go to bed one night and, just before you fall asleep, you remember a moment when you were severely embarrassed. You shake your head, abruptly gently, and, in the blink of an eye, you pretend it never happened.

“This is so much fun!” I yelled over the music at my best friend who had invited me to this party. “Oliver, why did I not do this sooner?!”

You never been one for going out to bars, actually you never been to a bar before. All of this is new to you, but your excited to see where it goes. Eric had given you the name of the bar to meet him at and while driving you realize it has been a bar you have driven past many of times. You just never had a reason to go in until now.

I was not the type of person to stand on ceremony. Though I knew this, as I looked at the clock right when midnight hit, I wished that my birthday this year could be special. Unfortunately, I did not have anyone to have those special moments with, so all I could expect was it to be just another day. I frowned slightly as my thoughts darkened from there before turning my gaze back up to my white ceiling. Happy birthday to me. Another year older and a lot more stress. I fell asleep just like that, staring up at the ceiling wishing my life was a little bit better than it was.

I walked through the fence to join him in the backyard. The sun was beginning to set and the closer I got to him, the better the fire he was tending to felt. As I approached he grabbed a tshirt from the Mustang and put it on. After he put it on he looked down at me and said, “hey you.” He opened his arms to embrace me in a hug.
