B’s dating diaries: 04. lessons learned.

This is part four of my adventures into the world of dating apps. Be sure to check out parts one through three to follow all my adventures.

The teacher was a great guy. Super social over text message. We often snapped each other throughout the day. Unlike the austrailian, the teacher and I chatted via mobile devices for probably two to three weeks before we had finally arranged to meet in person.

I probably should have listened to my gut with this one looking back in hindsight. We were just meeting for coffee and yet I looked for every excuse to cancel. I was so busy with my two jobs and just overall not into it. However, I knew I had to go on three dates this year to complete my 27 x 28 list and I had already invested a fair bit of time into chatting with the teacher. I might as well just meet him and see what happens.

I was quite a bit late and therefore naturally a bit flustered when I showed up. That could have contributed to why I  felt zero spark as I sat down. Or it could have been that I had created a persona in my head as we had chatted over the previous weeks and the person I met was not very similar to the one I had created. Don’t get me wrong, he was a great guy, but, the moment we started comparing our favourite parts of Grey’s Anatomy, I knew it wasn’t going to go anywhere past this coffee date.

I felt pretty bummed I had spent so much time talking with this guy only for it to go absolutely no where once we met. But hey, that’s a chance you take.  At least I got to check another date off for my 27 x 28 list!

Chalk this one up to an important lesson to be learned. From this point on, I resolved to meet people early on to see if there was any spark before I invested too much time.

What dating advice would you share with your past self?
