I have to admit, this churning thing scares me a little. I don’t like to make the first move and I never ask guys out so thinking about the one date per week requirement makes me a bit anxious. But as my cohort Betti has told me, chivalry is dead…at least in DC, and if I want to start dating more in this city, I am going to have to be more pro-active. So I accept the challenge and am in some ways looking forward to this adventure. I think churning will change our lives. We may not all end up married (which is fine since that’s not really the goal), but I think we will meet some interesting people, take part in some cool events, and at the very least have some very entertaining tales to tell.
