It's only a date if it's a break from the mundane.

I would stay in and 'do nothings' with you.

I think there’s a mandatory break-in period when you try to convince each other that you’re a fun person. After a month or two that fades away.

Never dated but I’d’ve found out quickly there are women out there want to go to gatherings (!) read poems at open mics take yoga catch up on the Cowboy Junkies learn ballroom dancing not miss musicals fly to places on a bucket list party etc so I’d be doing a Sam Beckett “I can’t go on I’ll go on…”

What if they don’t want to sit at my computer and build text adventures.😳

They will. It’s a leap of faith but nearly all of them will.

And damn it, nobody admits it on dating sites, just like no one shows sloppy sloppy joes on dull plates in IG or FB.

Oof, I feel this so hard. The fear of not being understood in the little things like just wanting to stay in, be cozy, and exist together is so real.
