I thought that I would never resort to a dating service, but it seemed that the time had come as I seemed lonelier than ever. In fact, I had never really felt loneliness before. I am still not sure if it was actual loneliness that I was feeling or merely a yearning for sex, since it had been quite a long time since that had happened for me. I also had not had a boyfriend in I could not remember how long. So, I called the dating service. It was downright humiliating at first, to admit to someone, regardless of the fact that they were a stranger, that I was soliciting love. I had not grown used to the fact that I was, in essence, desperate.
The first date was an absolute disaster, and I still feel it could have made for a good movie script. Everything that could go wrong, did. To sum up, without dredging up the entire awful scenario, the guy was just as disgusted with me as I was with him. I guess he probably thought I was a feminist radical, and I am sure that I thought and still think that he was the type of guy that gives meaning to the words 'male egotist'. I think we didn't have a nice 30 seconds in the entire 2 hours that we suffered together. We both couldn't wait to get it over with.
The second encounter I had with someone from the dating service went about 500% better, and I am still seeing the fellow to this day. We have had a great time on every date we have been on, and I adore him. He is very responsible, very considerate, well-mannered and also quite good looking. His looks are definitely a plus, although it's not something that has been important to me in the past. Regardless, he definitely made my solicitation from the dating service worth while. I have even forgotten about the hefty fee that I had to pay upfront to be a member, for the most part. I am hoping that we can continue to have great times together, which will also have the added advantage of me not having to suffer through one of those first dates again. Furthermore, I could save myself the membership renewal fee from the dating service. The biggest surprise through the whole thing is that I have realize such services can be useful, and I should not be embarrassed of myself to use them.
