Speedy Gambling

It’s a given I’m not your typical eligible man, traditionally satisfied by sitting at home without a date on a Friday night. I’d wager nobody have never heard me blog about great dating and compatibility. There’s a reason for that.

Dependence is an unfortunate foreign condition and entirely absent from my family history. But I do have a tender heart. I’ll level with you, I had no choice but to squelch a 3-year fling which meant a lot for us but essentially would never last. Therefore one could go on record saying its been ages since I dated someone new. I can’t find the dating with great expectations I used to enjoy.

Living free and single isn’t bad. This much is certain, I won’t be reduced to sit tight, faithfully binging on Battlestar Galactica reruns. The biggest cause of this case of fresh break-up dating apathy? This isn’t college, and most ladies I meet at work are taken.

My go-getting golf buddy, Tim, who has never had dating loneliness, sympathized because he is currently in the same boat. He introduced me to this Dallas dating service called Great Expectations. I enjoy mingling among new singles who meet my values. So I decided to make a change and joined.

Keep it real, you wouldn’t complain by being alone if ya haven’t picked up the phone. Just like my college football coach Jason Simms snuck into conversation when his wife wasn’t looking, “Fools lose before they try, sparky.”

I don’t know why he called me that. Regardles, he was on the money in a round about way. He was likable in all ways. The crazy series of Dallas singles events I just went to might have done a number on the old man’s shiny bald head.

Last night at a Great Expectations happy hour I met dozens substantive and attractive ladies that catch my interest. I truthfully had a blast with a few intelligently enjoyable men and women. I ducked out of the mixer a little early with an exchange of digits, and as a plus, I developed some political acquaintances for my business. I’m impressed.

Put yourself in the play. You won’t complain if you sit the bench. Don’t sell yourself short, you might as well have great expectations for yourself.

Sincerely,

Larry D.
