12:13 p.m. - 2005-12-17 The first thing she did was ask to massage my feet. Harmless, I thought, until she asked if I could massage her in her bedroom. Mid-massage, she said, "Feel free to kiss my back if you want-- that feels good, too". I kinda giggled, brushing it off. I was not in an amorous mood, and not about to kiss her--anywhere! She rolled over on her back and said, "So, it wouldn't be a good idea if I kissed you right now?" I blushed and stammered, "Um, no. Not right now." "Anytime today?" she said, hopefully. "I don't know," I answered, turning away, feeling uncomfortable. "Why don't we go out now and get some drinks?" Reluctantly she got up from the bed. "Just gotta check my messages," she said, reaching for the phone. A few minutes later she said, "Shit, I forgot I'm supposed to meet some people for dinner." "Oh..." I said, bewildered, wondering why on earth she didn't cancel, since I had already gone an hour out of my way to see her. "Should I go home?" I said. "Yeah," she said, looking upset. "I'm really sorry." "It's okay, it's okay," I kept saying, but inside I was fuming. But partly relieved. I really didn't want to spend the remainder of the evening with her-- she seemed way too eager to get down. So, I went home, ate some dinner, and went online. I found Charlie, this girl I've chatted with a few times. I told Charlie about my date, and how it ended so suddenly. Charlie had her own insights about what happened. She said Beth made up the story about going out to dinner because I wasn't giving it up. The more I thought about it, the more it made sense. Feeling adventurous, I agreed to meet her at the local around the corner from my place. She rode a motorcycle, and suggested going for a ride. When we met, my first thought was, "Ew". She was tall, thin, bordering on skinny, with a very thin face. She had Asian eyes (I already knew she was half Korean) and short hair. Her posture wasn't so great, as many tall girls are known to have bad posture. Still, she seemed nice, so I hopped on her bike and we headed to Jasmin's two towns over. I was terrified on the bike-- I kept thinking we would topple over every time she turned a corner. I had my sixth JD and coke of the night. When the drink came, I frowned and said, "Aw, they didn't put any ice in it". Charlie quickly got up, went to the bar, and got me some ice. Can you say, sweet? Charlie looked at me from across the booth and said, "You are SO adorable." I melted. Being called adorable is nice. We took a walk to the town centre, holding hands. Her looks were growing on me. She had a sweet look about her, when she smiled. She's not hot by anyone's standards, but certainly not someone to pass up just because of that. We sat on a bench, talking, while she touched my arm. I really held back any sexual gesture. It was the first time... in very, very long time... that I just wanted to get know someone without tongue wrestling. Which is a nice change.
