I decided against it after a phone call. Her voice was lower than mine, and I was a bass in choir.

We met for coffee and THE FIRST question out of her mouth was to ask if I had any land or a 401k.

No shit. I admired her facelift and walked her back to her car.

after his divorce, he dated a young lady for several months from a craig's list ad. She was pretty cool - I liked her but they went their separate ways.

She wasn't crazy or clingy or anything - they just didn't have much in common after initial attraction so they both moved on.

He's married now to a girl he met in a bar.

To be fair, it was really more of a darts thing - he and his friends went to play darts several times a week and she and her friends were there too so they knew each other for quite some time before they started dating officially and dated for a good long while before getting married.

And not even "that kind of date".

We met at a popular chain of coffee shops that it turned out we both hated.

Our next date we went to a sports/countryish bar. A double hit for things we both don't like.

Third date was better, we watched a movie that we both agreed sucked.

Skipping ahead to the 6th date, we went to another country together, and got robbed.

Now we are married.

La fin. De plus, le début

Nor more content. It turns out we enjoy each other enough that what we are doing together hardly makes any difference.

Saw each other for about a year. We had different ideas of what a relationship was and where this one was going and so I moved on.
