Defintely let him chase you a little. :-)

And I'm sorry, but your first post had me laughing my butt off. Some of the men out there are just insane.

Woohoo! Glad to hear it...and yes I think you're right to let him contact you.

Your experience sounds like it was right out of my "worst fears about speed dating" book...that's why I've been reluctant to give it a chance. But at least you can laugh about it!!

So, now that you've got the worst out of the way, the rest will only get better??!!!

I've never tried speed dating...but am a little curious about it (doubt I'd have the guts to do it).

How did you feel when you were there, Vex? Would you describe it as awkward or relaxing and relatively enjoyable?

It is surprisingly easy.

I loved your story about the speed dating! It reminds me of my speed dating experience last month---most of the guys were either real weirdos who probably couldn't get a date any other way or they didn't speak English well. It was a fun way to meet people since I don't do the bar scene, and I actually got a couple of matches out of it. Good luck with the guy you met!
