You know what they say, 4th time is a charm! Maybe that's not quite right, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed. This week I'm off to another speed dating event. I've had absolutely 0 luck in the past at these events, but I usually have a good time. Honestly, I want more than a good time, I'm hoping to meet someone or a couple of great guys. I get at least 8 chances, and 8 guys have a chance with me. I'm down to the wire, but as much as I hope one of the guys is a good fit, I won't say yes to a 2nd date unless I think there's something there.

After 45 weeks of analyzing my dating, I know I'm not too picky, nor am I desperate. This event is about simply meeting different men for 8 minutes and seeing if there's one where I say, "yeah, I'd like to see him again." I'm not measuring each one up to see if I want to spend the rest of my life with him. I can't know that in 8 minutes. But I can tell whether or not I want a second date. Sometimes I have to remind myself of these things. Thanks for listening. Below are my thoughts on speed dating as a whole. Be sure to check it out.
