Went out last night with a young lady, first date I've gone on since I broke up with last GF in Dec 2010. After that I gained 30lbs, then lost 105 thanks to keto.
My confidence is not what I would call super-high, but I definitely felt I could handle the situation well enough.
The girl is a burlesque dancer I've seen dance a few times but never had the courage to approach in the club. I hung out with her and her friend a few hours last Friday after an event we all attended. Then yesterday I asked if she wanted to go hit up a small burlesque show with me. She said she had homework to do, but she came out so, so it seems like she wanted to be there.
I wouldn't say the date went stellar, but I've had many that have gone much worse. It was a bit loud at times so hard to converse. She stayed until the end, and didn't flirt or leave with any other guys, so right there it makes it improvement over many of the dates I've been on in the past. We'll see how this goes.

Wow, a burlesque dancer. I've never seen one that wasn't beautiful. I hope it pans out well for you!

2nd date went a little better than the first, no fireworks, but we had fun. We really match up humor-wise, but not so sure if she's attracted to me. Oh well, having fun is good at this point.

Even if things don't work out romantically, one can never have too many friends!

Well since the last post I've had 2 dates with another woman (also a burlesque dancer), and while I'm not attracted to her as much as the 1st girl, had a lot more fun. In addition, I've had another woman ask me out (which I declined), and a few more have become very friendly/flirty all of a sudden. I've gone from one extreme to another!
The 1st girl is really a mystery to me. We've gone out each of the last 2 Thursday nights, staying out until early morning both times (last week 5am, I work at 7:30!). However, I still can't for sure figure her out. She doesn't show any outward affection, but almost never says no to anything I suggest. Oh, and she's going to be renting a room in the house next door to mine, so interesting times ahead.
