Met a very nice woman last night. Drove to Kankakee which is about an hour away to meet up with her over coffee and chat. It was a delight to sit and talk with her. I still notice that for the most part if I'm with someone who likes to talk I simply let them. To some, maybe to many that comes off as being closed or aloof. But I am trying to listen and enjoy everyone's presence, being in the moment. Maybe I haven't met that person who elicits that behavior from me. It could be an intuitive feeling that I'm holding back because I feel nothing long-term will come of things. But this is who I am. One thing that concerned me last night was her not having a clean break with her soon to be ex. It's a very friendly, cordial breakup which is good. But the lines are not clear to me when they're talking on the phone 3-4 times a week, having Thanksgiving dinner with each other. I need, want, and deserve someone with a clear and total breakup, someone who has truly and completely moved on.
I've been emailing with someone more local from POF. We really hit it off in the emails we've shared so I asked her out tonight to go to a Blues bar. I asked her in an email this morning so I don't know if she already has plans. Just will have to wait and see how she responds.
Bowling.........well I thought it was a mixed league with men and women. Silly me for not asking questions and just assuming. Ends up it's all men and the women there are all married. So much for an active social life there. And 28 weeks for a bowling season? You have got to be kidding me. No way. Think I'll look for that dancing class. That's what I really want, something that if I look idiotic to start will pay off socially as I get better. Learn and grow......
