Pleasantly Surprised

Since beginning my single and dating lifestyle a little more than a year ago, we all know that I have not had many...any successful experiences. That's not to say that it's anyone's fault. Aside from the guy in the very first post of this blog, it was never anyone's fault. We just weren't compatible and that probably happens more often than not.

So let's talk about this for a second. What are the chances of two people who are put in the uncomfortable situation of a blind date actually hitting it off? I'm certainly not looking into that statistic, but if I had to venture a guess I would imagine that it was lower than 35%. Not good. And how can a person get over these slim odds? You could always take the casual relations route. Some hey nanny nanny with no attachments. Although I've come to realize that you always get more information than you're asking for but that's a story for another blog entirely.

Without giving away too much information I will just say that my recent introduction to someone who I would had never met had it not been for me throwing an insane party for my mother's 50th birthday and my aunt being the nosy, eavesdropper that she is. There is no way of knowing where anything will go at this point, but I can say with confidence that the first 'date' was the best I had been on in well over a year. And that's a bold statement - not because I've been on many dates because I haven't..but the extent to which is was different was just unbelievable.

So I'll keep you all posted. And continue to provide you with some random observations that I find interesting and enjoy hearing your thoughts on.

Have a nice weekend...and Let's Go Giants!
