Off to the next catch

I was over Eileen in a matter of days. My heart was heavy, but what to do? She was not just my liking. And it just did not happen like that. A friend of a friend hooked me up on a blind date. Everything happened in a flash and I was set to meet my match a day after I was given her telephone number. I readied myself.

I am not the kind of a guy to swig a few pints of wine to gain courage, but a blind date is not the easy stuff for anyone, including me. You get it wrong with the first word and you are doomed. The danger still, was to take things seriously and make no impact. For women, I am told, like happens in some reptiles, the first three minutes count a lot.
