Adventures (FF)

I missed the boat on the first wave of the dating app trend. And even after I bit the bullet and downloaded one for the first time, I still had a hard time getting on board with the whole idea of swimming through a sea of unknown faces to decide which one I might like to meet and ultimately, what, maybe even have sex with? Weird. But eventually, thanks to some good-natured nagging from my friends, I came around and I took the plunge. Met a few of the faces, went on a few dates, even had a nice little fling blossom from one of those encounters. And I’ve gotta admit, the overall experience was surprisingly enjoyable.
So, it’s been a couple years now since my first foray into blind internet dating, and I’ll admit that I do still dip my toes in the pool now and then. Especially whenever I leave town; I find that get really curious about what the foreign waters might look and feel like. Even though I rarely make time to meet up any local candidates, I’ll load up the old profile upon arriving in a new city. There’s just something about the thrill of being on an adventure, of going to new places, that lowers my inhibitions and encourages me to explore new fantasies with the notion of beautiful strangers. This time in particular though, I hadn’t even left the airport before I started my virtual journey.

Adventure?
