Incoherent Ramblings

I’ve been thinking about my blind date last night and how it ended with the "I’ll think about it" line – which in my mind still means "No, I don’t want to see you again". Never the less, I must try and stay positive without becoming delusional. Perhaps she does want to think about it – or talk it over with her friends and/or family. However, it’s hardly a good sign now is it?

However, thinking it over, even though I went into it with a completely open mind with no preconceptions or expectations, once the evening had ended and we went our separate ways it got me quite down. I still feel a bit deflated now.

It’s bizarre really because I’ve become quite accustomed to the outcome of my meetings – be it on-line or in the flesh – and I usually dust myself down and simply carry on the best I can. Perhaps it’s because it was simply a blind date that became over hyped by our mutual friend who essentially set up the meeting – or who conceivably over hyped me to my date.

Other than my dignity and self respect - but who needs those - I guess I’ve got nothing to lose by ringing her again, although that "I’ll think about it" is still making deafening ringing noises in my ears...
