I met a Lisa November 29, 2005
From my posting recouting last weekend’s activity, I mentioned number closing a girl named “Gillian.”
Here is my assessment of tonight’s date with “Gillian.”
This girl is amazing. She is well-spoken, thoughtful, attractive, tough. She’s also 21 and in college.
Although I read her pretty dead-on, there were certain impossibilities to penetrate. Whether or not someone says they are “open as a book” the truth (or fact) may prove otherwise.
At the end of the evening, as we left the bar - searching for separate cabs, while she was talking about something (to be honest, I was only thinking of the following) I grabbed her and kissed her. It was really nice, and soft and we were both a part of it.
Her comment, “It took you long enough to get up the nerve.”
My mind exploded.
Thankfully, I’m witty enough to hold my own and I came back with something that made sense. More thankfully, a cab came so I wouldn’t have to talk any more. We kissed again goodbye. She said, “see you soon.”
I said, “Will I?”
She said, “Maybe.”
I’ve got nothing.
Earlier in the evening I asked her to rate herself as a kisser and she said 9, then 8.
On my way home, I sent her a text that said, “I give it an 8.5 rating.”
This is what I got back: “Funny, cuz that was nothing.”
Genius. I was (and am) speechless.
There’s no text message I could send back that would enhance the situation. Fighting every instinct in my system to retort, I am going to give her the last word. For now, at least. Should I? … huge debate.
I am not sending her a text back. The plan is to call her tomorrow.
Girls, you have it easy. All you have to do is be mean and guys will follow you anywhere.
Smooches,
Eats
