THE GENTLEMAN'S EXPERIENCE<br />
I decided to show up 7 on the dot. Walked in and noticed<br />
this guy by the door. He had this look on his face that suggested<br />
he didn’t want to be there. Had a feeling that THAT<br />
guy was my blind date and thought “well, fuck! It’s going<br />
to be a shit night...” I continued on anyway and headed to<br />
the bar. I approached the bartender (who by the way was<br />
really cute) and told him I was there for the Blind Date. I<br />
was the first one there. Got myself a drink and waited on<br />
the table. A few minutes later, this guy comes up to the<br />
table and says hi. I was right. It WAS the guy by the door.<br />
Not usually the type of guy I’d go for but I thought fuck it.<br />
We introduced ourselves and started chatting. It was clear<br />
that we were not going further than just mates (but not in<br />
a bad way at all). It didn’t stop us from enjoying the night<br />
and making the most out of the $150 tab, though. We<br />
spent most of the tab on drinks; more specifically these<br />
shots which were called “cock-sucking cowboy” – fucking<br />
appropriate for a two-dude date. And that’s how it went<br />
for the rest of the evening: shots, more drinks, talk about<br />
people we both know on Grindr, perv at hot people in the<br />
bar (aka the bartender) and more drinks.<br />
Overall it was not a bad night. Had good chats and drinks<br />
and some food. We ended the night with one last cocksucking<br />
cowboy each and headed home. And no, there<br />
was no gobby down by Graham Street by the museum,<br />
this isn’t a Nexus Blind Date fairytale ending people.<br />
So went on a blind date for the first time at first I was<br />
scared as hell. This is not something I would usually do<br />
and in fact kind of a worst nightmare. I walked inside to<br />
the bar and discovered my date already at the table, I sat<br />
down and tried not to be too awkward – this guy was<br />
a babe! Lucky for me he was pretty chatty and got the<br />
conversation rolling without too much effort on my behalf.<br />
Once we got through the initial awkwardness/introductions<br />
and got talking we had fun getting to know each<br />
other talking about who and what we do for fun.<br />
Soon enough we were knocking back shots – they were<br />
so yum! – and we ordered some food - he had nachos and<br />
I had the fish and chips.<br />
At this stage I was getting drunk and my date was looking<br />
better and better – I was letting my mind wander as to<br />
how the night would end but he seemed to have eyes for<br />
the bartender more than for me.<br />
We talked for over a good hour we both walked out pretty<br />
drunk but unfortunately both went home alone … Unless<br />
he went back for the bartender.<br />
It was a really cool night so thank you<br />
