I spy with my little eye, and see a deleted post.

Rave and rant; I done worked myself into a pickle.

Rave: Hit it off in a conversation with a woman and have a date tomorrow night! She seems great!

Rant: Hit it off in another conversation with another woman. She's also great, and clearly interested, but I was messaging two at once, figuring that one or both would suddenly stop responding mid-conversation without any explanation. After all, every last woman I was having conversations with before, about ten or so, did that to me, so I figured it was a safe assumption to make. Well, #2 stopped messaging for a few days, so I figured that happened again and set up a date with #1. Now #2 just got back to me and is still clearly interested. Unless my date falls through, I'm probably going to have to explain why I can't date her right now, making me look like a jerk. Maybe I am.

Like a dog chasing a car, I never expected to actually catch them, and had no plan if I did. It would be hilarious if it happened to someone else, and even now, I can't help but chuckle about what I've gotten myself into...

I've had this happen to me...

Spoiler :

...with buses.

Wait for hours for one to come along and then two come along together.

I've had this happen to me with trains.

One comes too bloody late, and the other never comes.

Also, there's snow as far as the eye goes and the train is covered in graffiti.

 

[Borachio]

Never mind a train, I once went out with a woman who was covered in graffiti.

I spent the entire evening reading her tattoos.

I think I may have been a bit the worse for wear through drink, though.

 

[gay_Aleks]

I still have to spend time with a girl.

Which is why I spend the entire evenings engaging into unwholesome activities all by myself.

It probably didn't involve any drinks, or meals, however.

You can object all you want, but you can't make a jury unhear a statement

It's a first date dude, don't put the cart ahead of the horse. Unless the dates are at the exact. same. time. and you're forced into some RomCom scenario where you running back and forth trying to juggle two dates that are across the street from each other or something, you have nothing to worry about. Go on your dates. Nobody's expecting you to be exclusive until EVEN IF you have "the talk" with one (or god-forbid both ) of them about exclusivity. It's a first date, for all you know one or both of them could be ghosting you by next week. If you're a month in and STILL juggling them, we may have a problem, then you sir are demonstrating your commendable ability to give more love than the average man and should continue to bless this world with your bountiful heart and ability to bring intimate happiness to not one but two other human beings, but for now so forever, regardless, relax and enjoy the attention. Kudos!

Just had to do some renovations on the foundation of what this all is.

Me too!

 

[Lohrenswald]

I met a girl I liked, but by the time I had figured out I liked her, she had gotten a boyfriend

 

[choxorn]

I've met multiple girls I liked, but never seem to be able to figure out how to convey that message.

 

[GoodEnoughForMe]

I've not met people in years.

 

[Lohrenswald]

I often write about that time you were in Chicago though
I think it was Chicago
Wasn't that recently?

 

[GoodEnoughForMe]

Oh yeah that was last year. Too bad everyone was a one time thing because they were from all over the world. But I am going again this year.

 

[JohannaK]

I also met a girl I like! Just yesterday. She's pretty androgynous, that must be why. I thought she was a guy until a heard her talk and I had a better look at her.

And what do you want to have happen once you've "conveyed"?

 

[Commodore]

Ah, I remember the days when I was nervous around girls. Then I went and got myself married.

 

[Arakhor]

In my case, her laughing at my terrible puns and I dunno beyond that.
