Update-1.28.08

I woke up feeling so relieved after resolving the situation with Casey yesterday. I felt empowered, I had regained control over my dating life. Things were exactly as I wanted them to be. With thoughts like that, I should have known that a curveball was coming my way.

Imagine my surprise when I logged into my personal email at work first thing this morning and there was an email from Jack - the painfully shy engineer. I thought he would have picked up on my subtle put-off 2 weeks ago when I told him (vaguely) that I couldn't commit to anything because my next few weeks were crazy with work and personal commitments. His email was nice - he hoped I had a great time in London and said to let him know when I would like to get together again.

For a split second, I had the juvenile inclination not to reply - hoping that he'd pick up on the hint. But my wise friend (and loyal commenter) J, brought me back to maturity and told me to email him back and let him know, nicely, that there wouldn't be a second date. So I emailed him back tonight and told a small fib about why we can't get together again (I'm pursuing things with another match - which is true, I just haven't met "that match" yet).

A bunch of new guys were delivered to my Inbox. A few seem viable... I'll share the scoop if anything progresses!
