I realized I hadn't updated my progress with A-girl and L-girl.
A-girl is pretty much off the radar at this point. I never once got the feeling she might even remotely consider me as a potential. She's young and cute, she's got the rest of her life ahead of her -- what would she want with me? I overheard her and another girl in the office talking about guys they were hanging around with in a club (maybe a bar?). "Oh, yea... he was cute", she'd say "but not as cute as [some other guy's name]". She's maybe a little out of my league, looks-wise, and she could probably get someone who might be considered better looking, but certainly not better.
As far as L-girl goes, she's saying some really dumbass things these days that are really turning me off. She keeps turning me down for lunch dates which is really starting to annoy me. Superman tells me that he doesn't see us ending up together and, honestly, neither do I. I was basically looking for a gal-pal to try and get me comfortable with women and all their foibles -- I guess she doesn't want to help me with that.
I watched 'Hooking Up' last night on TV. Part of it focused on a hottie yoga instructor who was going on VERY bad first dates. I don't know what those guys problems were.... this girl had long blond hair, beautiful eyes and a toned body to match. So after all the bad dates she picks this guy who I NEVER would have paired her with. She says "he's cute" and I'm thinking "this dude looks like a troll". No accounting for taste. Anyhow, they go out on their date and it's completely comfortable and nice and she gets a second date. It just confirms my belief that I have no idea what women are looking for -- at all!
And even though I'm somewhat against it, this TV show does make the idea of finding someone online a little more appealing. I mean, it pairs you with someone you might not have met otherwise. Isn't that a good thing? Why does the person I'm with have to travel in my same circle? I'm not talking about a long-distance relationship here, but someone outside my general comfort zone would be good. My friends, family and co-workers have been no help -- whatsoever -- in pairing me up with someone. Maybe they're trying to tell me something.
Hmmmm...
