I have to start dating again which is kind of unfortunate.
I'm not good at dating. I get really nervous, self conscious and stressed out about it. In fact, in the case of my first boyfriend, I was so nervous to go on our first date that I almost threw up and almost cancelled the date all together. Of course I was happy that I did go on the date, but the feeling before hand was God awful.
I don't like going to bars to meet people either. It's loud and we're probably both intoxicated. "WAIT, YOUR NAME IS BRIAN RIGHT?" "NO, RYAN." "BRIAN?" "NO B!" "OOOOOOOOH!" Continue dancing and smiling.
I think the only thing I have working in my favour (also sometimes against me) is my quick wit. But when you're in a bar, quick wit is nothing. I usually have to repeat myself three times over loud music just to get a fake laugh in exchange. Though I'll admit, I've pulled that move MANY a time. *NOTE* remember to brush up on fake laugh.
It's supposed to be a fun thing. I haven't been on a date in over 2 years so maybe I've matured now? I'll let you know when I go on my first date... Guys still pay right? (joooooking.) I actually like to go halfsies. Otherwise I feel like I owe them.
OK. Mind is empty now.
BYE.
You ought to date men that like funny women. How about a guy who's a fan of your act?
ReplyDeleteI'm sad for you. But also happy, dating is a lot of fun, especially when you meet train wrecks. I feel like I could write a book about all the bad first dates I have gone on.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, guys still pay.
