I am doing online dating

180. Whuh???? Talk to them like live, in real life and in person? Well we can't have that now, can we?

I will admit that when I was in types of work that afforded me more public and social access that I definitely had much better opportunities to meet men and people in general. Being limited to the intertubes definitely has its drawbacks. Kind of like shopping online, it looks good on the computer screen but then you open the box and it's just not quite what you had in mind.

There aren't many social opportunities where I'm at right now, but I really don't mind. I'm concentrated on a huge project and really just can't be bothered. I rather quite like my bubble I suppose. I know if I wanted to, I could change it, but I guess I don't want it bad enough!

There was a younger guy I met last year through friends and there was a definite mutual attraction. He ticked nearly all the boxes in fact... and was very handsome to boot. But, he was young enough to still want to have kids and I just didn't want to really keep him from doing that, so I pulled myself away before it got to a point beyond drinking buddies and friendship. I knew it wouldn't end well for either of us.
