Dating, Tub Tracker

What’s going on?

It’s been a week and I’m finally settling in to the tub to reflect. High? Yes. Wine? You know it.

We’re making progress with the podcast, so stay tuned! Music has been selected, a few episodes have been recorded, art has been made, social secured, and we’re so close to launch!!

In the meantime, I went on a date last week. It was pretty lackluster and even he didn’t want to makeout with me. I was pulling out all the stops, even though I wasn’t attracted to him! But a makeout would have been nice, dude!! Needless to say we didn’t make plans to go forward.

So here we are, in the tub reflecting.

Tub Tracker stats:

Furry Ghost Pound Town

Well, things progressed. I agreed to meet Pound Town Todd. We had some great convos (in the Tinder app) and was looking forward to a night out. But let me give you a quick play-by-play of the messages sent leading up to our date.

Him: What are you interested in sexually?
Me: I’ll tell you later, I’m not writing them out! 💁🏼‍♀️
Him: I need to know if I should prepare my furry suit.
Me: omg
Him: Lol why is NO ONE interested? I paid all this money!
Me: I can’t tell if you are joking or not. Good for that community, it just isn’t my thing.
Him: Lol You’ll just have to find out in person

So we firmed up the plans to meet the next night at 8pm. We picked a place close to my neighborhood as he wanted to make sure I felt comfortable and on my turf/terms. Good, right?

So the next day he messaged me around 5:45pm confirming he was joking about being a furry and to not worry. I wrote back confirming that we are meeting at 8pm (two hours away) and the bar’s name, closed my phone and left work to shower/shave/date prep.

I took my time getting ready, drank wine, and danced around while getting ready. At 7:30pm I checked Tinder to see if he messaged back/re-confirmed the date and y’all the boy unmatched me. Blocked. Out of sight. Straight up GONE.

Did he show my profile to his friends/roommates and they said “ew gross, ditch her”? Did he chicken out after all that talk of taking me to Pound Town? Too much pressure? Or was he simply a furry after all?

Holiday Bath w/ Pound Town

As you know from the Single Wine Tear, I’m high and in the tub. It’s a holiday so midday bubbles on my day off? God damn beautiful.

But let’s sink in to the latest dilemma: Pound Town Todd. We matched on Tinder months ago, never met IRL, and fell out of touch due to traveling and such. Enter Friday when he messaged me out of the blue. Vibes were still good so we reconnected and by Saturday he was asking me what I was looking for on the app. Me? Anything. Pound Town Todd? Handing out tickets to Pound Town.

So after some laughs and me ultimately replying “I’m not not interested.” here we are and he’s ready to meet up. And I’m nervous and scared, reflecting in the tub.

Should I go for it?
