Not sure why I remembered this after all these years or I am not sure why
I had not thought of this in years but....
About two weeks after I met NQRW I had a long weekend booked at this place in the Southern part of New England called Club GetAway.
It was advertised as a place to meet singles and I had booked it before I met her and if I am not mistaken it was about 200$ for two days two nights.
The more I think about it the more I think that this weekend made me run when I should have walked in terms of NQRW.
The place reminded me of what Summer camp looked like in a
Charlie Brown movie complete w/ a lake, cabins that you shared with other people of the same sex and a big campfire.
First of all it was not all singles, and that made meeting people hard as you had no idea who was attached and un-attached.
Second I was very nerdy then...ok I can hear the "THEN???" from the thoughts community. This meant I really never clicked in. I ended up hanging around with this young couple that was newly married and came there as a place to get out of the city.
Third there were few really good activities to meet and get to know people. Yes it is great to learn massage and had I met someone before that and said lets try this it might have been great, but the feel of a woman massging you as if you are radioactive(and I do not blame her given we had just met two minutes before) and then squirming at the idea of me touching her does little for the ole confidence.
So what did I get for my effort?
Little but I tried and that was OK
I did learn that I can not water ski on top of the fact I can not snow ski that I already knew.
I mean you are looking at someone that has tried out for most game shows and even tried out for LOVE CONECTION when it came to NYC one year.
But I think that I took away from that that I needed to grab NQRW and hold on as she was the last bus out of singlehood. And as you do when you do hurry I made a mistake and got on the wrong bus. I saw her as a way out and did not really make sure that way out was the way I needed to go.
Again I am not sure why I thought of this past that it was in July that this all happened.
