Finally! Chemistry!

Well, I've had a big-time dating dry spell lately in terms of feeling any romantic sparks at all on a first date. I've never been a big "slow burner" though it has happened. I'm more of a fan of that instant electricity where you're sitting next to the guy, hoping like hell that he'll hold your hand, you kind of turn your head to see he's looking back, too. I've missed actually feeling "up" & excited about a guy after meeting, thinking about him the next day.

Well, I FINALLY had a first meet like that last night! It had been a long time & I was starting to wonder if there was something wrong with me, if perhaps I just wasn't into dating anyone right now. Well, I guess I just didn't have chemistry with those other guys, which is funny because a few years ago I seemed to have chemistry with any man who was reasonable attractive. LOL!

There was a sweet good night kiss (GREAT lips on this guy) & he said he definitely wanted to see me again. There was an email from him this morning, asking if we could have a glass of wine somewhere after I get off work Friday night (I work nights/weekends, but usually get off at 11). Yay!

Granted, he could still ghost at any time, but at least my Faith in the existence of attraction is back, even if things don't work out with this guy.

BIG RELIEF!

Gosh, I'm so happy for you! I'm in the same boat as you although have yet to have met someone who makes me feel that way. I was beginning to think that possibly my "no expectation" attitude or always "expecting the worse" was enabling me to feel those feelings again. It's nice to see that is not the case; and look forward to that day again. I'm so sick and tired of the slooooow burner process; but most men I've met recently have all ghosted.

After next week, my son will be back so I'll be taking a break from OLD. Darn shame, couldn't even meet anyone to hang with while I was free for the summer! Oh well, I'm still hopeful though...especially after reading your email.

Keep us posted on developments!!
