I’m sorry, I’m not practicing English enough for a few weeks.
So, be indulgent please .
I had a date tonight.
I met this woman on tinder, I liked to chat with her. What I liked was she has a very “simple” way of life. : Watching movies, cats/dog, listening to music.
I mean she was not faking a perfect life with a lot of friends and a lot of activities. That would have scared me because I don’t have that lifestyle at all.
She was a nurse but she doesn’t work currently.
I thought while chatting with her that she was bipolar, schizophrenic or something like that, but i really don’t think so now.
I had the impression that she kept things inside her. Or maybe she wasn’t talkative, I don’t know.
For my part, I am obliged not to expose myself too much.
I had a drink with her but it wasn’t a good idea. I had a headache and was a little paranoid after that.
Anyway I had a good evening.
There is an expression here which says “it is by forging that one becomes a blacksmith”.
I imagine the English version is very similar. Maybe it’s the exact same expression?
I just find that I worry a lot less than before with dates. This is a good thing.
The main thing is to have been there and to have had a nice evening.
Confucius would agree with me. Yoda too.
I’m schizophrenic. Perceptive people can figure out quickly that I’m not your average Joe.
If I go on a date and meet a Psychologist, she asks herself, “What is wrong with this person?” If I meet a Nurse, she asks herself, “How can I make this person more comfortable?”
Hey that’s great. Sometimes it’s good to meet someone at at a public park. You could just talk or plan a picnic with a blanket on the grass. There won’t be many people around you like in a coffee shop. It would be a little different and your possible new friend might appreciate your thoughtfulness and creativity.
Your English is quite good. Be sure to read a little from your books(or online I guess these days). Just now and then. When you feel like it. Good luck with your next date!
