I had a pleasant lunch with C today and about 10 minutes into the conversation she used the phrase "my fiance" and I realized that lunch was just a friendly thing to do with a co-worker and all those smiles I took for flirting were just C being friendly. She doesn't wear a ring. I decided to not reveal that I had been hoping to date her, I just didn't want to muddy the water. Lunch was pleasant, nonetheless, and possibly even profitable. C knew about massage school, and wanted to know about my plans after graduation. She even wanted my card, which I don't have yet, to give out to her friends. She told me she thought I'd do well as a massage therapist because I'm friendly and open. Cool.
So, what next? E has not called, and even if she does it will probably be as a friend. (Read about E here.) I've been exchanging e-mail with some women through an online dating service, but it's slow going. I don't feel like I'm on the verge of even a coffee date with any of them. So I decided to go off in a different direction, and pursue a fantasy that has recently been occupying a significant part of my consciousness.
I posted an ad on craigslist, offering no-strings oral sex, no reciprocation required.

Doh!
Man, I hate it when that happens.
But the cool thing is that you didn't let it rattle you.
When I was single, I found that I welcomed opportunities like that. Why? It made me less nervous around women in general, and that translated into me appearing to be more confident - which is a chick magnet ;-)
Seriously, you done good. Good luck with CL... but consider that you might have better luck with a Personals ad in the local alternative paper.

Hey, thanks, Tom. I do feel like it's a confidence-builder. And finding out that C's engaged is actually progress, because now I can stop wondering if she'll date me, and turn my attention elsewhere.
