Well, I just got back from my first date with Short Chris. My overall impression was that I'll go out with him again, as it wasn't horrible, but that I don't think a dating relationship will come of it. He was really nice and down to earth, but I think a bit too..."down on the farm" for me. And at 32, he gave the impression of being closer to 40. He has a good personality, but I'm leaning a bit toward boring. And I honestly didn't feel any sort of romantic spark, no physical chemistry at all. He's my height, 5'8", and stocky, whereas I'm usually attracted to tall and thin guys. I'm just not into teddy bears. Again, great guy, but just not for me.
Well, Date One down, we'll see how Date Two with Tall Chris goes tomorrow night...
Edit:
Brooklyn, it's hilarious that you said I needed to look for a medium Chris, b/c after going on Date 2 (with Tall Chris), I came home thinking, "Good lord, I feel like Goldilocks...that Chris is too short and heavy, but that Chris is too skinny and angular!" LOL
Anyway, edited to add about my date with Tall Chris...
Great guy, great personality, really funny, we talked for about 5 and a half hours, but again, not sure if I'm physically attracted. I love tall and thin guys, but Tall Chris seemed a bit too thin. He's 6 ft tall, and couldn't weigh in at more than 150 lbs! Which makes him almost painfully thin, very angular in features. He'd be very good looking if he had about 30 more pounds on him!
I know that sounds horrible, to be so focused on looks, but I cannot be with someone that I'm not physically attracted to. Been there, didn't work. Even the best personality doesn't amount to a hill of beans if you don't want to end up in bed with him after a few months. Friends with great personalities, I have plenty of, and don't need any more...what I need is a friend who's clothes I want to tear off! lol
And so far, neither Chris is doing it for me. I can always tell on date one if I'm going to be physically attracted to someone, and I don't feel that with either one of them.
But, I was contacted today by someone I winked at about 4 months ago (I thought it was 6, but went back to look in my winks and it was only 4), and I think he's really cute, so we'll see if his personality matches up. If not, then back to the drawing board again...
