"I was going to write about orgasms today, or more specifically, I was going to respond to a commentor&amp;amp;#8217;s post about faking them (not with me&amp;amp;#133;I don&amp;amp;#8217;t think), but something came up that I thought I&amp;amp;#8217;d share before we board the disappointment train to Sex Town. I got dissed this weekend. No, it wasn&amp;amp;#8217;t in a rival rapper&amp;amp;#8217;s new track--it came from a woman, a young lady with whom I had a first date, and it was the sweetest diss of all time. This is pretty much exactly what happened--except I have nicer arms. On Saturday, after a night that involved some admittedly weird dancing (until 4am), I crawled out of bed and, along with a dose of earl grey tea and a small container of macaroni and cheese, I made my way to a park to meet a friend of a friend for our first date. I found her on a bench, alternating between cowering and hysterics as the lunatic next to her coaxed squirrels up his legs with chestnuts. We watched the squirrel man for a while, went shopping for beets and dill, then walked by to my apartment where we made soup (not a euphemism--we literally made soup), listened to the Arcade Fire, and got to know each other. About an hour after she left, I got an e-mail from the lady in question saying that she&amp;amp;#8217;d had a great time, that we should hang out again, but that she did not feel a &amp;amp;#8220;relationship vibe.&amp;amp;#8221; Naturally, my ego flared up immediately, and I thought, &amp;amp;#8220;Well, now I have to have her.&amp;amp;#8221; But a few minutes later, I realized that I felt the exact same way and could not think of a better way to phrase it. &amp;amp;#8220;Had a great time. You&amp;amp;#8217;re cool. Didn&amp;amp;#8217;t feel a relationship vibe.&amp;amp;#8221; How awesome is that? Direct. To the point. Friendly, but not circumlocutious--it was honestly the best &amp;amp;#8220;it&amp;amp;#8217;s not gonna happen&amp;amp;#8221; I&amp;amp;#8217;ve ever received. My dating life is rarely this pleasantly lacking in BS. Usually there are dinners, dates, texts, calls, missed calls, books exchanged, clothes discarded, discarded feelings, and worse, long before we get to the point of &amp;amp;#8220;I&amp;amp;#8217;m not really feeling it.&amp;amp;#8221; This time, I got to spend a hugely pleasant afternoon with a very cool, funny young woman and feel totally enriched for the experience, despite the fact there&amp;amp;#8217;s ostensibly no romantic future. What are some of your best and worst first date experiences? Anyone have a recent first date and feel left in the dark as to what&amp;#x27;s next? Tomorrow, sex stuff, I promise.
