My Mad, Mad, Mad Dating World

The dating world is a strange place.

I'm continuing to learn a lot about guys that runs the gamut from interesting, sad to amazing.

Today in my crazy world, I was trying to see if these two guys were possibles. One is a teacher who's tatted up, but has a heart of gold. The other guy is a dreamer and highly creative chap like me.

The teacher fits more of my ideal type and the dreamer connects with my creative energy, but at the end of the day, neither of them gave me that spark. The teacher has somewhat given up and just wants friends. Relationships have worn him down, so he's only focusing on friendships. The dreamer, well, there's no romantic connection.

I tried. I've kissed him, hung out on a few dates, but nothing gave me that 'feeling'. What's the feeling? Well, it's that spark of thoughts where you see yourself dating, going on road trips, taking FB pics and being sexual. Nope, I didn't get those vapors. I got more of a friendship vibe. It was truly clear this past Saturday night that being friends was the way to go.

But then, this happened. A guy I briefly talked to a month ago, popped up again. We re-connected on Friday night. We had a good convo, which continued the next day. On Saturday night, we talked on the phone for 5 hours straight. I haven't did anything like that since High School. We decided to hang out on Monday, but on Sunday, decided to meet that night.

So, on Sunday night, we hung out and had a really good first date... Great actually. It was that kind of a date that lingered on, in a good way. We drove around, talking about Carrie, Buffy, and horror movies. It was a great night.

We decided to meet up this week for another date. I'm very excited about him, which makes me a little nervous. So far, he fits my likes and style... and he's a great kisser. I guess, we will see how this will go, but I have to say... He's winning right now.
