Bizarrely, I have a date next week. An old school friend, occasionally flirtatious, nice person, pretty, a little wild, complex, vulnerable....all the good stuff.....did have boyfriend last time we met, mentions she doesn't now, in town next week. Asks me out. I'm now trying to think how rare that kind of stuff is. Very rare, I guess.

I don't understand it either. Thing is....we did actually get on really well last time. I wasn't quite Sylvia Plath emo'd up to force 10 last time (5 years ago I reckon) like I have been recently though.

I'll assume it's purely friendly so as not to be disappointed but it's a strange one. I better learn some social skills in the next 9 days or whatever it is. Quickly build a presentable person in one week or your money back. If there's any companies doing that then let me know.
