I would like to share my online dating experience with you guys.
Here I am…Single for most of my life….I’ve been dating here and there, but as I’m getting older, dating is getting tougher or I’m getting pickier….I'm 37 years old and I'm educated and have a good job too....
Last year, I thought I got to do something for my life and find a partner….well…online dating is one option…..I signed up for one of the popular online dating sites in America….I’m sure most of you guys know the name….match.com….I think I passed those days that I didn’t want to post my pictures or I was hesitated to do so….I’m so confident to post my pictures and I’m not replying back to any of those folks without an identity there…..like spooks….how one can attract somebody without a photo….
Anyhow….I start it very casually….and I posted few photos of me…..I asked my good girlfriends to review my profile and give me feedback….after making all the consideration I posted my profile and paid the six month fee for that….and there was a promotion to get another six month free if my profile stays active within this six month and I sent certain amounts of emails….I though….wow…that’s good….I can do that….
Okay….here I am…so hopeful….with 100% energy….start the online dating…..searching….screening…..reading their profiles….judging them…..eliminating those with photos with shirts off….eliminating those with kids….not to mention that it took me a while to figure out I can filter them if they have kids or not….so you can see how much I wasted my time by looking at guys profiles…..I came across to this guys profile, let’s call him Steve….no…let’s call all the guys that I’m going to date Steve…and I add numbers, then we can keep track of them…..I’m pretty sure they won’t go double digits….
Yap, Steve, looked okay and he’s self-employed….and he has a Bachelor degree…..not bad….He asked me out for lunch….since he was living closer to my work, I asked him if it’s okay to meet him during business days for lunch at Corner’s bakery…..and he agreed…..
Now, I’m going to tell you what has happened the day before my date…..It’s been years that I color my hair dark mahogany…..and everybody loves it….actually, I do have good hair….one of my assets….but because of age, I have few grays….and they were showing up on the roots…..my mom was here visiting me….and of course I didn’t tell her I’m going for a date next day…..I asked her if she can color my hair….well….she did….but god…I don’t know what she did that my scalp was RED….like bleeding….I washed my hair so many times, and I couldn’t get rid of the red scalp…..oh boy….why now? And this is 11pm at night….I said whatever….I’m going for the date…..It was one sunny day…He was standing out side and I’m thinking “OMG….I wish he was inside the restaurant”….He was really tall….like 6’3” and I’m just 5’4”….so now you can figure out how much he could see from up….He stepped forward and I could see his puzzled face by staring at my head….hehehe….I thought that’s done deal….well….I didn’t hear back from Steve1….although, I didn’t feel the Chemistry and connection with him at all, but still I wanted him to contact me…..and this is end of my very first date of this serious……
Wait for more…..
