Well, it has happened. The manifestations are fast & easy. I have found 2 Jeff's and I have met 1. Also, holidays and weekends don't really bode well in terms of connecting with people via online dating. That's my observation anyway.
Jeff #1 was not really into getting the video chat, however, he said that he was going to make it work and then try it out. That was nice, he was really easy to talk to and matched what his online profile pictures looked like. What a relief! We had a nice conversation (I can't remember what we talked about), but I do remember that he made it almost like an interview (good, I can practice for that as well).
He lives 50 miles away so he really made the effort to come out here. What I didn't like was that he wasn't very good at making a plan of where to eat so I just put it out there and he said he was going to say sushi. Ok, then why didn't you say that to begin with? I'm just being nitpicky right?
He was really good about talking about his past and how he grew up. He didn't really talk much about his parents but it seemed like he had regrets of how his dad didn't teach him certain things and he had to figure it out himself. He overworked himself during COVID and ignored his relationship so he said he learned from that. That's good! Our conversation was free-flowing, but again, I can talk A LOT. There won't be a quiet time of awkwardness because I am a chatty Cathy here.
I find myself where the guy is interested and then I decide I am not. Well, he's not very attractive and when I went home, I reviewed his profile and he was 36 (but he really looked 45). I also didn't like that he gave me his Google Voice # and that made me give him my Google Voice #.
Well, he has asked me out on a second date but it's the holiday weekend and I've been really busy with social and family events and I have determined (like I mentioned in the previous post) that I don't really want to date. It's pretty exhausting and I really enjoy time to myself and learning new things and working on myself. The question is, do I really want to give up my free time to date? I have a lot of activities so I may not want to give up that time for someone who is just meh.
Basically, sorry Jeff, I did not feel a connection. Thank you Universe for sending me a Jeff to talk to. I have one more Jeff to talk to, but I haven't responded to his text in a couple of days because of the holidays. Let's see where that goes and we can close it all out.
