I think I mentioned connecting with a gal on a dating site recently? We shared a few messages, a few texts, and a very long phone call (much to long for my liking, but I digress). After the call, we agreed to meet up sometime this weekend.
Anyway, to cut to the chase, I'd not been feeling very positive about things, and even though I know it's best to give someone a chance in-person (as in-person chemistry is more important than text/calls), I had been casually considering ways of getting out of it. She told me she'd contact me yesterday with an idea of her Saturday schedule to see if we could arrange something, but I never heard from her.
I got a text this morning, saying she had to decline, as she's come down with an illness. To be honest, I was relieved. I told her I was sorry to hear that, and that I hoped it wasn't too bad & she felt better soon, and her reply was simply, 'thank you'. I have the impression we're not really on the same wave length, and I'll likely tell her soon that I don't think we're a match (if I hear back from her, that is).
I think I have unrealistic expectations when it comes to dating, and that I'm not going to find what I'm looking for, at least locally. The question now (again?) is, do I keep putting effort into the online 'search' as-is, do I loosen my standards and try to accept someone who's not really what I'm hoping for, or do I just hope to meet someone randomly (which seems unlikely, as I never really do anything or go anywhere)?
