Fumbled first date with a very high quality woman
Fuck man this hurts... We matched a week ago and kept a good convo via text pretty much daily.. She is older than me, on her 40s but she is beautiful, intelligent, has her own business, volunteers, is active on her community and goes to networking events.. I found all that amazing but unfortunately I didn't matched her at all on these qualities. This was evident during our conversation because I didn't had much to say about my life experiences even though I'm on my early 30s.. so I had to ask her a lot of questions and the whole thing ended up being a interview... I did made her laugh a few times, we shared a little bit of common tastes when talking about Movies and TV shows but that was mostly it.. the date became awkard by the end, the waiter dropped the check and I paid the bill but I felt it went all so quick so I asked her if she wanted to go somewhere else. I gave a suggestion or two but she told me she was done with having drinks so we ended up just leaving, then I walked her to her car, we hugged each other then she texted me later that she arrived home and thanked me for the dinner...
Later today I got the dreaded "I didn't feel much of a spark between us"... told her I understand and wished her well and she texted back immediately thanking me for being so kind 🥀🥀
I wish I was enough for this date, this one is gonna be tough to forget 🤦🏻♂️
