On CS it may be called many things; flirting, looking for, "That one", just ranting, building one's ego, just expressing a thought, expressing pain, looking for attention without accountability. Cheap cyber thrills, friendships, pretend love.
We see a picture, we read some text, in some cases it turns us on as we fill in the blanks. There are a few women here that I "Adore". What would happen if we suddenly met ? So many factors to consider. Chemistry, little quirks that may turn one off, a slip of the tongue that reveals a big negative.
Yet we remain. Typing away to put ourselves out there in hopes and dreams. Why not ? God speed to everyone.
Went out for a couple of beers tonight with a buddy. First time in many months. Wow, did it ever remind me of what I'm not missing. Same old faces, same drunks, same women with a bad dye job, they were all blonde. The only saving grace, Keith's draft beer, it's been a while since I've had a draft.
Bottom line; if you're over 30, bars are a waste of time. Unless you own one.
If flirting became reality with emotions set aside for one night.
Please don't. I have to go to bed alone.
