dating

All about dating. First dates, three years into a relationship, Tinder, and more.

Rose Red
It all started with a French movie. A beautiful young girl who had a double life as a prostitute hid it from her family and school friends. It was like a game. At the end when her game is exposed, there is a scene in which an older woman, wife to one of her clients tells her that she wishes she had been as brave as her in her youth, brave enough to make men pay to be with her.

Day old paper
"Taxi!" Megan called out, her jacket hanging off one shoulder as she waved her hand in the air. She managed to get her arm through and pulled back the sleeve to check her watch again. She knew what it was going to tell her. She was late, and not quite sure how. Had she taken too long in the shower? Watching the yellow car come to a stop beside the curb and the light flick off her mind picked back over the last few hours trying in vain to find something that offset her schedule. There was nothing. She must've dawdled and procrastinated, trying to stretch out the time before her date, which was a really strange conclusion to come to.

A Serendipitous Encounter
Mia sat alone in the booth, old classic easy ignored music was playing throughout the bar. Her phone buzzed for the 20th time, 20 missed calls. She turned it off as she sipped on her wine. She hadn’t expected today to go well but she also hadn’t expected it to go quite so terribly. She cringed as thought back to an hour previously, desperately thinking of the answer. It was a classic question, she’d been asked before. “Where do you see yourself in 5 years”. She could have said anything. Her former self would have jumped at the opportunity with her refined answer. But what did she say? Nothing. She inexplicably burst into tears. Mia had always been someone with a 5 year plan. Scratch that she had a 10 year plan no a life plan. She was going to get her degree in law by 22, marry the love of her life at 25, make partner in her 30s and fit in a kid or two along the way. Now here she was single and careerless at 29. Her eyes pricked with years as she thought about it. She shuddered as she heard the words “No way. Mia is that you?”. She so badly wanted to camouflage into the background instead she smiled at the slightly familiar man that stood before her. University or Highschool? Work? Was it one of Matt’s friends? She thought, still holding back her tears.

Romeo
My friend is always trying to set me up on blind dates but the guys are usually never my type. Until she had showed me a picture of this architect who travels the world building new model figures for big companies. I began to blush and was in awe because for once she showed me someone who seemed appealing. She gave him my number and after talking over the phone for some time and liking each other's photos we decided it was time to meet in person. Our last conversation on the phone ended with me telling him to pick me up at 7:00 pm Friday and to woo me.

Daydreaming of Eternity
I sit in my chair reading her text messages. Is it butterflies? Is it hunger? I am not sure. I met her on a dating app and she seems amazing. I am actually a little nervous to meet her. What if she doesn’t like me? What if meeting me ruins what we have built so far?

How Memories are Made
This was the life, she decided as she walked across the beach. The feel of the sand between her toes was warm and comfortable, maybe because it brought back memories of a time not too long ago when her family actually took vacations together. She smiled fondly at those memories, even as she looked out over the ocean, watching the waves sway and flow. Her mother and father used to bring her and her two sisters to the beach every summer.

"Dream Date"
You asked me what I wanted to drink, a simple question though I found it odd as I already had a glass of water and was quite satisfied with it. But when you asked me a second time I felt I had to choose something else. That it would not do to be as boring as my first choice, so instead I asked for a glass of wine, hoping it would invoke in me some sort of air of sophistication, one that may impress you. I specified the wine to be a glass of Merlot, although I’m unsure why, I couldn’t even recall what exactly it tasted like, but it had to be this or else I resolved I wouldn’t drink anything else. I suppose it was also a challenge of sorts— that if you somehow had this wine in your possession, I would take it as a sign that this first date was going in the right direction, that our meeting was somehow serendipitous after all.
