Dating Scene

So, I'm not really "dating". But I went out again last night with my friend to a "meet-up". I wasn't as nervous this time. It was here in town and I figured I could just leave if needed. It was at a gay bar downtown. Let me tell you about drunks! I mean, I had a couple of beers, and I'm okay with drinking, but there were some women who I just could not steer clear of enough!

So in walks the woman from last weekend who referred to me a "bisexual". I have a confession. Of all the women I've met, she and I hit it off the best. We kept gravitating towards one another and have lots to talk about. She was much nicer last night. Actually, she was nice last weekend except for that comment. She just left a relationship that was as long as my marriage.

Okay what's my point? I'm not sure I can do this. I like being around the women, I like some of the flirting and sparkling conversation. But dating? One lesbian friend of mine told me women don't date. What the heck do they do then? People-I'm lost here. Or is it just so new that I need more time? I tell you, I really lay in bed at night and wonder how I got here. What am I doing? I sometimes feel like I should pack up and return home for the comfort. But that's the easy thing. Kind of late for that too-considering I told the dh and can't really go back into the closet.

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hugs,

Amy

I know-everytime I think about it laugh so hard. I was working out in class today and just dying laughing. The istructor looked at me like "What's so funny about circuit training?" If she only knew I was thinking about the word "genitals" she would really have died.

It's good to have something like to laugh at when the rest of life sucks!

Hugs,

Hey I forgot. She was telling us she had someone back in Auckland. I knew what she meant. But everyone else thought she meant Oakland-which is here in the Bay Area. I was so proud of myself for knowing that one. The genitals thing was a great laugh though

Good luck in meeting women Passion. Yes, in your area you have many options I would think. Happy dating.
While your dancing away in the bars try not to step on anyone's genitals...

It is one of the funniest things I have heard in awhile. I will never be able to wear my jandals without laughing again.
I think it is so funny when you are in one place thinking of something funny from another place and laughing when no one else is. especially when it is in an inappropriate place, for some reason I laugh even harder.
Hugs,

Got her laid huh???

Now why didn't I think of traveling overseas when I was *looking*?!

And you are right, our accent (or lack of it..!) is quite different to the Australian one.

either that or it's a strange cult going down with lesbian chickies from New Zealand. We finally found a use for men's genitals- wear them on your feet!!

so you heard the story of someone who was travelling to Oakland and ended up in Auckland? I think they made a movie about that. Just as well they weren't wearing jandals as well huh?!! Could have been an x-rated movie....
