'That way'

Last week i wrote a couple of times about this guy I was chatting with, who I thought was really nice. So, this past weeekend, we exchanged cell phone numbers resulting in the two of us texting each other constantly. It seemed only the logical next step to meet each other, so we arranged for next Saturday to go and have a drink somewhere.

Plans changed a bit last Sunday, when this guy called me up to tell me he'd be in groningen that evening (he lives about 200 kilometres from my hometown) so that would a nice opportunity to meet each other a week earlier than planned. So, we made plans to go for drinks that evening, which I thought was an extremely pleasant date. We laughed, we had a nice chat, and he was so fucking goodlooking I can't even begin to describe. When he left that evening, I really thought I'd ran into a good one!

Imagine my dissapointed when the next day I got the message dreaded by all singles in Datingland... he liked me very much, just not 'that way'. If I ever hear that message again I think I'll stop dating alltogether. What is it with me everyone likes me except they only like me as just a friend? You'd think I would be able to hookwith at least somebody, and since this came accross to me as such a great date, I really thought I'd scored big time.

Don't get me wrong here, I absolutely hold no gridges against this guy, I mean, things like this happen. It's just such a shame since I, for the first time in actually quite a long time, really was prepared to go for it.
