tonight i went out with my classmate. i knew the place we were going to fairly well - so i was confident the food would be excellent; which it was. as expected, i had a very pleasant conversation with her and we spent some time getting to know each other a little better. unfortunately - the conversation on my end steered towards things done w/ my ex.... the sad part of spending more than the past 12 years w/ someone - they were part of all of your life until very recently, and the past couple of months haven't been all that interesting....
ah well... we chatted, we ate, we sat around talking some more, we parted company w/out setting anything solid :-(
i enjoyed myself & i'm pretty sure she enjoyed it as well. she asked a lot of questions, answered all of mine - and was a very good conversationalist. which as those who know me know - is the key that i am looking for in a partner... someone i can talk to. i think i would enjoy her and i dating and think we could have a lot of fun together, but i'm not too sure how she sees it. she really didn't give any clear indication as far as "great! we'll do something again soon".
she did spend a part of the conversation discussing her views on the american dating model... being from germany, our "protocol and rules" of what is expected @ each date is confusing and (echoing my own sentiment) pretty stupid. so, at least i know that the few things i know about dating - mean dick all of anything w/ her. i guess that could work in my advantage, eh?
follow-ups to come as i know more!
