Day 1 - Partial Recycle

Before I recap today's results, I'll summarize my plight.  In short, I haven't had a "boyfriend" since 2003.  That's a long time, and I've come to realize I don't even know how to go about getting a boyfriend.  Enter the challenge. 

My friend Steven encouraged me to try a different game.  He suggested simply writing my number on a piece of paper, handing it out to whomever I see fit, then disappearing "like Bugs Bunny."

Excellent idea, though I have a feeling there will be some slight modifications along the way in my methodology.

My challenge simply put is to find a boyfriend.  In the past 7 years with every man I've hung out with I've either become 1) a buddy or 2) a cutty buddy.  So my challenge is to succeed at the 3rd option, if for no other reason than for the practice....or to prove to myself, and my friend Steve, that I am indeed capable of finding a boyfriend.

UGH

Day #1

I didn't hand out my number on a piece of paper today, but I felt it a stroke of fate that I ran randomly into an unexplored possibility at the bank during my lunch break today.  This fellow, I'll call him "Cute and Tall Lil' Wayne" or CTLW for short, is a nice and charming guy.  I met him months ago at a club (dun dun dun) but haven't defaulted to either of my options yet (see above). Therefore, in my challenge, he still qualifies as a possibility.  I walked out of the bank only to come face to face with CTLW.

"Well well well," I say as I try to keep my face from turning BEET red.

He is surprised to see me too and we small talk for just a second.  Probably 10 seconds to be exact.  After we quickly run out of things to say, CTLW says, "what time do you get off work?"
I find this to be a promising sign, as it's SURELY not a brush off.  I say 5:30, though I have dance rehearsal til 10:30 or so.  He mentions that I should "contact him."  CTLW is unclear if that means after rehersal or in general, but I just go with it.

Fast foward to the end of practice 9:37pm.  I text CTWL to say that I'm done early and is he off work yet?

His response?

Day 1? I think it goes in the unsuccessful column.  But for number's sake, I won't give up on CTLW just yet.

Unsuccessful  = 1
Successful = 0
