Today’s little slice
of “happitude” is...
Words of wisdom and loving and supportive
friends.
So... the chilled night in wasn’t quite as
chilled as I had expected.
It turns out that this Tinder bloke and I had
very different ideas of what a chilled night in meant and unfortunately he was
wanting things to move quite a bit faster than what I was comfortable with.
You’re probably thinking, “Well, of course, you
idiot! What did you think he wanted from you?!”. But I suppose I am a very
trusting person at heart and I like to believe in the good in people.
Unfortunately, learning that just because you imagine people a certain way,
doesn’t mean that that’s the way they really are is a difficult lesson. But I’m
glad I learnt it and that I had loving and supportive friends to give me hugs at the end of it.
I walked into his place feeling excited and
optimistic and in control of the situation. But I walked out of there feeling
very disappointed in myself and like I didn’t know who I was and I realised
that I never wanted to feel that way again. I decided there and then to figure
myself out and figure out exactly what I want out of relationships and out of
life in general. A far better screening system for future dates would also be good...
Spoiler Alert: This sounds much easier than it
actually is and a couple of low points are on the way.
