Last night was my first New Year's Eve in 46 years that I spent on my own. Not alone, but on my own. Went to a buffet dinner party at a friend of Alyse and Gerry. Really wasn't that bad -- the men all sat in the den and watched sports; the women all sat in the kitchen/dining room near the food and talked. The only problem was that the party started at 7:00 PM which is rather early for a party that is supposed to last past midnight. Food and dessert had all been served by 10:00 so I didn't at all feel bad leaving at 11:00 - well before the ball dropped and people coupled up to kiss in the new year. Watching that would have depressed me.
I joined Match.com -- there are some men who are not on POF and there are some who I already saw on the POF site. At least my profile and photos are new and refreshed. Getting some interest but who knows.
Actually have a date tonight. Who showed up on Match.com but my old friend Marc? I still don't understand why he blew me off when we had such a great time at drinks. And since he is now showing up prominently on both Match.com and POF searches I sent him a note saying that obviously the internet dating gods think we should be together - so what happened.
Wound up having a long talk yesterday and I invited him over for dinner today. Yeah - I know - I must be crazy - but I liked him! Not sure what to expect - but at least we will be on my turf. If I don't like what he is saying or where the evening is heading I can always ask him to leave. Just want some closure on one thing in my life for a change.
