Should I be grateful?
Response on a personal ad and everything was looking good - until I asked if he wanted to meet first at a coffeehouse.

Since then I've heard several choruses of crickets chirping, in unison, the theme to "The Facts of Life" for some reason...

1. It just happens.
Quite frequently, in fact. Nothing to be grateful or ungrateful about.

3. Honestly, the thing that would have me most concerned
is the theme from facts of life.

TOOTIE! Is that you? ;)

6. Well, that part wasn't serious...
I'm just known for having a bizarre sense of humor, topped with Cool Whip...

4. Are you clear about what you want?
is it sex, or a relationship? And yes, you can have both... but he may have had something else in mind.

Or he might just be scared.

5. Oh, I was quite clear, as was he...
Maybe I did scare him off.

A bit of a pity... even moreso since my epiphany; realizing that the last 8 years of my life have been an utter joke. (not necessarily; I can think of worse things to have happened... but they seem less likely to happen now.)
