Last night I went out on a "date". For some weeks, have been exchanging emails with someone via the online dating site I've joined. As usual (for me) I tend to be attracted to people who live absolute miles away. In this case, he lived in Chester!! Anyway, he had some business down South yesterday so we agreed to meet up for a meal.
I knew from his description that he'd be fairly slim as he is very active sports wise, and that he'd be short'ish - 5'7". Well, if he is 5'7", then I'm a lot taller than the 5'4.5" that I know I am!! This is the 3rd time that I have met up with men who obviously have not told the full truth about their height. I have nothing against short men, but it does throw me when I'm expecting someone to be taller than me and they end up shorter. Decided from now onwards, I'm going to automatically take off 2" from the height indicated in profiles. That way I wont be surprised!
Anyway, in case you're wondering, evening went OK, not too sure I'll hear from him again. Must admit I'm already a bit weary of this dating business - it is hard work!! Although I'm happy with my own company at times, I'm not happy being alone (if that makes sense). Sometimes I wish I could be happy alone and then I wouldn't have to worry about this dating game!
