Back then it was also easier to meet people because I was in Texas not New York. I had family and friends that could go out with me or help me meet someone. Then When I turned 22 I moved to New York. A new land full of plenty of people I didn’t know. I didn’t come to a glamorous job where I could dress up and walk the town and have cocktail’s after work. I was a nanny. So the only choice I had was to take a class. I was an art major so I ended up taking a painting class. Well it worked just not the way I’d hoped. I meet a lot of people unfortunately they were all women. There was one guy in my class and he happened to be teaching it. So I spent two days a week for four months with some really good women.
After that I gave up for a while. I started to work out more because I figured once I was set loose I needed to look good. After two years I left my job to look for another. Again the only thing I could find was a nanny job. If I wanted to stay in New York I was going to have to take it. This time around I wasn’t going to make the same mistake. I decided to take my case to the internet court. I went on every dating site there was, answered all the questions and waited. I tried to be honest and truthful. I posted a decent picture it wasn’t a glamour shot, but it wasn’t the worst one I had. I didn’t want the guys to see Adriana Lima and get Ugly Betty. So there I was waiting by the computer every night. Checking to see if someone asked me a question, smiled at me, poked me, liked me, or something along those lines. Then out of nowhere the flood gates open. I was getting about six messages a day from a decent group of guys. The more I paid for the service the better looking the guys were. I was surprised. After I scanned all the profiles and found some good candidates I started to go out on dates. I don’t think I am the best dater in the world but I think I’ve been on enough to know that I can be pretty fun. So After the first date, I was pretty excited. He was cute and fun and I wanted more. Three days later, no call. So I brush off and try again and again and again. After the tenth date I was done. It must be me. I wanted all those guys to call back, but they didn’t want to.
So now it looks like people are reverting back to older methods like speed dating and seminars. I have to walk into a conference room with a bunch of people trying to figure out what they are doing wrong. How can that not be awkward? If I decided to try speed dating then I have three minutes to get a guy to fall in love with me. It takes me three minutes to find a comfortable chair position before I can even talk to a guy. What am I supposed to do now?
