Another maybe date this Friday with a new guy... I can't think of a nickname right now.... Wednesday has become a usual for my brother, SIL and me to go karaoke. This new guy I've known but not talked to much before... so I said hello. then he came over and sat with us... He didn't ask for my number. But asked me, when is the next time you're coming out... and I said... I don't know, maybe Friday... he said we should hang out. And I said, yeah, but not here. So he said, well lets meet here Friday and go from there... But he still didn't ask for my phone number, nor I his... So I'll go and see what happens.... This guy is atleast a guy in his 30s and seems nice... not my usual hottie... but still he has nice eyes and he doesn't drink too much. He usually plays a golf game and keeps to himself.
On the match front....Just got through trolling. I'm embarrassed that I checked out someone I know so i emailed him.... I figured he would see that I viewed him anyway..... I winked at several other cuties... didn't get any emails back, yet.

Good luck! & i know, isnt that bad, when you click on match & are like "SHoot! i know him!" lol
My match name is loony4u
So, here's the recap of Friday... He seems really NICE but also SHY. I'm sooo not used to the shy guy. My SIL was trying to help me out... she said he likes you, couldn't you tell he was just shy. And I said, no, to me if he's shy that is usually an excuse that he DOESN'T like me...
I was late arriving on Friday because of the kids. I told SIL to tell him I was on my way. When I got there, he was playing in the pool tournament... so much for leaving. Fridays are packed with people I know... like all my girl friends... so I had plenty of people to mingle and hang with.... ShyGuy sat next to my brother and they talked up a storm. But he didn't really say much to me and I felt that awkward feeling... like hmmm what do I say... (i just hate guys like that... who don't know how to make conversation). I shared a couple of my funny stories with him, but our conversation didn't flow naturally into the next subject.. So, i ended up spending more time with other people and he went back to playing a video game. Sigh... He didn't get my number, but gave me a hug and said, see ya.
I asked my others friends and I'll ask you too... Is it MY fault? I mean, is it my fault that he didn't know how to talk to me, so I ended up mingling with other people instead of him......? On the one hand, i feel like I won't meet a NICE guy if nice guys don't talk to me. Oh well, I won't put all nice guys in the same category but ShyGuy did seem nice.... too bad he wasn't more aggressive.
I'll post Saturday's update in a different post...

LB- I wouldn't feel bad or question that whole thing with ShyGuy either! If you're not a shy girl, and you don't want to have to dig a conversation out of someone, then you shouldn't have to! And it's clear that you are not a match. You need someone who can hold up his end of the bargain while you are energetic and talkative and active. A man who is a good match for you- will be the same.
ShyGuy is a nice guy who just needs to meet his own ShyGirl who can appreciate his quiet side. And if he can talk up a storm with his friend but not with you... then he can meet that quiet girl who he can feel comfortable enough with- that he can talk with her, too. It's not you... it's just that you're probably not a match. That, or the situation was too uncomfortable for him to open up. Maybe if you run into him some more in the future, that he will show a less-shy side??? Who knows?
But I wouldn't ache over it for now. And I seriously doubt you are still aching over it anyway. I bet you haven't given it too much thought since you hit "post" awhile back, and I don't think you'll be losing any sleep over it! ;-)
My Hiker would probably be named "QuietMan" had I not already named him Hiker before I met him. He is one of those "shy guys" and doesn't talk much. But once he gets more comfortable... he does talk. But he still doesn't ever JABBER the way I do. So while we can be totally different in that aspect... I also have my VERY shy and quiet side... and for that, we match very well. :-)

" I also have my VERY shy and quiet side..."
LOL- I find that VERY hard to believe :)
Hey thanks for giving me your search name.. I just checked it out. Great pictures!! It inspired me to add more photos of myself... but since i don't have very good new ones... I added some from the past 3 years... I like profiles that have a variety of photos so I added more. ...
Even though I graduated with a photography degree, it can still be hard to get a good picture of myself.. I'm usually embarrassed when taking it and feel vain.... I'll be thinking about getting a good self-portrait...
