CBD - Update V

Went on my first Crazy Blind Date last week.

It was fun.  We met at Flatiron Lounge, (a butt-ass expensive bar in the Flatiron, natch), and we shook hands, got a seat at the bar, and I got a Scotch.  Usually a signifier of a good evening.

Here’s the thing.  I’ve already pretty much come to the conclusion that Asian Dudes just don’t do it for me, but I’d thought I’d be open minded, and keep them on my criteria list.  While this wasn’t a huge mistake, it certainly wasn’t the best idea as, upon meeting the dude, I thought, ‘Oh… this isn’t going to work’.  This was further conflated when he proceeded to start talking about his parents, (w/in the first 10 minutes), and just how Asian-y they were.  This was followed by soliciations of information about Millie and Sing, my own gay brother, my theater company, (he was an actor, another thing that I’ve sworn off), my coming out history, and the words ‘well, I should just marry you now’.  (My reaction: *nervous laughter* ‘Awkward.’)

I mean, aside from all of that, I really had a good time, especially for something so untested, and the night ended in a hug and an exchange of phone numbers.  I’ve since decided not to be that guy, and have not replied to his texts, knowing full well it’s probably not going anywhere.

Since then, I’ve gotten 3 other offers for CBD’s.  I’ve gone on one, (soon-to-be the subject of a subsequent post), but the other two were so obviously sex dates.  Not that I’m above that, but they were all the way across Astoria in the Eastern part.  For those of you who don’t know Astoria, it’s the largest neighborhood in the city and takes about an hour to walk from one end to the other.  Therefore, my deduction that walking 40 minutes just to get laid at 11:30 on a Saturday was just a little too much for me to ask.

Can you blame me?
