I had the most amazing experience in the most unexpected way. It was so fucking stunning.

I went out for dinner with B, a scoping exercise/almost date. While we were driving there, he said he was supposed to meet a friend before his work engagement, but hadn’t been able to, so just if it was okay with me, since he was flying out the next day, could he join us? And I said sure. When he described the friend, turned out it was a person I knew, and had previously had chemistry, a talking stage, with. S.
We got drinks. Before S arrived, B and I had been having very serious, very intense conversations. About life philosophies. But S and B were old college buddies, so his arrival meant fun story swapping and catching up, and the mood lightened. They’d often stop and explain the stories and context to me, so I never felt left out at any point. There was a live singer and I’d been singing along, and mentioned wanting to go to karaoke, and B said “Let’s go, where can we go?“ I couldn’t find any places that would be open and running karaoke at 11 30 pm on Friday night. I also had my car with me, but B said there’s an app with a driver service, that will come and take your car wherever you need to go. So that problem was no longer a problem, thanks to B and his problem solving skills. Little did we realize what a good decision keeping my car would end up being.
