ok, sorry, bad joke... I don't know about you, but most of my friends have the reaction "date? What's a date?" I don't know if it's just the people I know or what... In any case, going on a "date" puts way too much pressure on the people involved. It's like you're obligated to make sure the other person has a good time. If only there was a way to get to know people without dating.
Been there done that. I don't know what the fuck is wrong with people, frankly. I do think that most folks live with so much fear, that it becomes this background noise in their lives, and can make them unpredictable.
I had a lady just up and flake on me recently-- she had been on about how I was interesting, sexy, etc. and then . . . poof! Incommunicado. I'm sure I'll never know what happened.
This is probably an example of God doing you a favor. If he's a flake on date #1 . . .
Thanks for the nice words-- check your email and hit me back. I'm sure we can find a way to get a draw'rin or two into your hands. Holla.
It could have been worse like a blind date where the other person just blows you off and doesn't even give you at least one try. That happened to me two times in a row. Those were the first two times in my life that I made the first move. I actually prefer the girl taking initiative as it shows she is comfortable with who she is. Then again I haven't gone out with anyone in almost 3 years so what do I know.
He just knew that he couldn't handle a woman such as yourself. keep trying there are a few of us strong men out there just waiting for an opportunity. Oh yeah Happy New Year too!
You don't need "confidence boosters" --- you need to take a couple of those exceptional pics you have and staple them to the offending rude boy's forehead.
have a good new year babe .. 
ha ha ha ha ha
