The night is fun, the conversation is great, we laugh, we eat, we drink and enjoy every seconds that passes with each other. For any passerby, it would be hard to believe this is our first date. The ease at which we communicate, the comfort level and the occasional flirty looks are all signs of a dinner going very very well.
Things are going so well, that at some point, beaming with confidence, for a split second I ignore the beautiful woman across the table and survey the room to see how many beautiful women are around. As if sensing my detachment, she pulls out her cell-phone, look at it and put it back in her purse; Is she looking at the time? is she expecting a call, a text? does she already have plans after dinner? the rush of thought pull me back toward her, and as soon as the phone is in the purse, she leans toward me, with a beautiful smile that seems to imply: Entertain me.
I am impressed, I am flattered, she is demanding my uttermost attention, as if she can't spend one second without me looking at her. I tis hard to imagine that a few weeks ago, I had to muster all the courage hidden in the deepest fiber of my being just to approach he; I questioned myself being good enough for her, wondering if she will even give me the time of the day.
Where is the mysterious green eyed brunette who almost paralyzed me? what happened to the vixen who forced me to write a cheat card before calling her? and what to say of the woman who compelled me to go to a spa and...ok too much info...Point is, at this very moment, I am hard press to believe that I once thought she'd be hard to get, I can't believe how nervous I was, and when I think about it now, securing a date was half the effort I imagined.
My mind starts to wonder, could I do it again? have I stumbled across the secret of seduction? have I unlocked the mystery of attracting women? if yes, should I go for the kill, and duplicate the effort again and again with as many women, just to catch up on past lost experiences?
I can do it, no I should do it, shouldn't I?
"Would you excuse me? I have to go to the ladies room" she said interrupting my thoughts
I stood up and watched her walk, with that grace, that feminine stride that allured me from the get go. While passing the bar, a gentleman stoops her and says something, she replies with a laugh and keep going. That little exchange, although obviously innocent since the gentleman is with a lady friend himself, stirs a little uncomfortable feeling inside of me...
No, I have unlocked anything, I have not discovered anything, if 5 seconds away from me causes that uncertainty....it can only means one thing, I am in for the long haul. When she will return, we will continue our date, and set the foundation for many more to come.
