It's been a little while, so I thought I'd just drop a quick update!
If you're wondering what happened with The Entrepreneur, the short of it is, I gave him my number, and never heard from him. Sure, it's possible that he's just really busy (entrepreneurs are, after all), but I'm not totally buying that (if he was really interested, he would find a way). So I'm doing my best to move on with other things. But I gotta say, this one really disappointed me. I really liked him. A lot. Like, I haven't met someone I connected with that well in..... 2 years? Sometimes I wonder if there is any way I can try to see him again, but I stop myself because I don't want to be *that* girl. I'm not sure what bothers me more--that someone so great could slip away just like that, or that I somehow might have completely mis-read our encounter. Every time it enters my mind, I curse my rotten luck. Well...... that's that.
Also, my cousin's husband tried to set me up with a friend of his. He never does that, but he thinks the world of both of us, so he thought it might be a good match. The friend said he was interested and took my number from cousin's husband, but never called me. He told him that he eventually decided that a relationship would really disrupt his life, and he liked things the way they were, so he decided not to go for it. No skin off my back, really, since I hadn't even met the guy, or even spoken two words to him. But damn, I think that's the first time I've been rejected even before even having a conversation with someone.
Finally, in a fit of boredom, I started messaging with a guy on Tinder the other night. I usually just troll Tinder for a little ego-boost to see what guys I match up with (which is basically every guy I pick--I don't think guys are very discerning, but it does help my ego, anyway), but while I was a little bored, I started chatting with one guy. I know very little about him, really, but it was nice to chat with someone. I *might* meet him eventually (taking all the necessary precautions for meeting a stranger, of course), but I have zero expectations here. I guess job-searching has me in "meet people" mode, so I'll meet just about anyone. Which I guess is a good thing.
Trying to stay positive,
