I went on a bomb-ass date this week with a guy from Match. Chemistry was there, and about ten minutes into the date I decided that I would sleep with him if given the opportunity. He wasn't a perfect fit for what I'm looking for and I'm not sure I see any long-term potential, but- even better- I see a lot of short-term potential!!! I haven't been kissed since March, so short-term potential is pretty damn important right now.
Above all, the passive aggressiveness in Seattle is what kills me with dating. He had a good time- I was sure of it- and I knew he was interested. He initiated contact with me via text a couple days later, and the following messages were sent:
Him: Hope you had a great 4th.
Me: I did. I went hiking, although it involved ingesting more calories than I worked out.
Him: Haha that is how mine usually are!
[Ten minute break in between text messages while I wait for him to ask me out...]
Him: Any fun plans this weekend?
Me: Hiking all day Saturday. What are you up to?
Him: Riding at some point.
[Another ten minute break before I get fed up and ask him out]
Me: Well, want to do something fun when you're not riding and I'm not hiking?
Him: I think we can figure something out ;)
Me: You free Saturday night? I could go out later in the evening.
Him: I think I can do that.
Me: You can check your busy dating schedule and get back to me.
Him: Yes I can do that!
Thank God I went to a women's college. If it wasn't for a healthy dose of feminism, things would be bleak around here...
