You're Going to get Murdered

I tried networking to get dates and that didn't work. I tried having friends set me up and that didn't work. I tried new activities and that didn't work. So I am back to the Internet. I emailed a dude from Craigslist this morning, to which one of my friends told me via gchat, "you're going to get murdered".

I told her I know people who have found success on Craigslist. And I stand by the hypothesis that it is better for my mental health than standard online dating.

Like I said, I emailed this dude this morning. His name is Alejandro. He is European and works in the wine industry. He is 33, has a dog and is established in the area. He is educated and seems interesting. He asked me out for a "drink and healthy conversation" this evening. I would totally go but I have plans with a friend right after work and then fencing practice. And I am actively trying not to ditch my own plans for a dude no matter how excited I get about him or the idea of him. (That was something I did in my 20s.)

Am I getting excited about a guy? I don't know. Jury is still out on that one.

I told him I was on a fencing team and had practice but asked if he was free tomorrow evening. If he's free maybe we'll meet up. And if we do I'll tell you about it.
