I went on my date last night and I had no attraction to this man at all..which sucks he was nice and polite and didnt try a thing offered to pay for dinner but I told him I felt more comfortable going dutch so we did..

But there was just something missing, I just did not find myself attracted to him he didnt make me get butterflies there wasnt anything about him that made me say WOW so I feel bad I think that we could be great friends but anything more is not possible....

But on a good note I did something have never been able to do I took a chance I put myself out there I went out with a stranger I took down my guard for a just a moment and I was not afraid I felt confident I felt good so I think that I took a huge step forward and I think that it was just the step that I needed to take.....

On another note I still have not heard anything about my MRI I am giving the doctors another hour and then I am calling them to see what the heck is going on this is driving me nuts......

okay I need to run and get some work done thanks ladies for letting me speak..

All my love,

Erin

I was looking forward to your post. I was curious how the date went. It sounds like it didn't totally SUCK, so that's good! :-) Sorry that there wasn't a connection though. But you were brave and stuck your toe in the water.

I'll continue to pray that we hear good things from your doc. Let us know. Personally, I'd be on the phone calling them by now!!! I'm not that patient!

Good Luck!

Hey Erin! You at least gave it a try, which is important. The last one I went on was over a month ago...and no connection for me either, although I did know it was more of a sex-thing for him. It just wasn't working, and I realized that I just wasn't ready to date yet, even if I did want sex. Oh well, we keep trying, don't we?

Please let us know when you do hear from your doctor!

love and hugs

Hi Erin!!

Thanks for keeping us posted. My friend Carla always tells me this: "don't write a guy off just because you aren't instantly attracted to him." She met her fiance, and wasn't attracted to him at all. But because he is such a nice guy, she kept on seeing him. Now she thinks he is the sexiest man alive. I've met him, and he's sooooo nice. And you know what? Now I think he is good looking, too. Just a thought.

Dont confuse infatuation or lack of it with whether or not this person will be a good friend, or lover or future partner.


I Know we all like to think that in our lives will find someone that "sends us over the moon" but
