Sara
Yes, I know I said I wouldn't do online dating again, but she approached me, so it's OK. Kinda.Sara sent me a message on an online dating site on Saturday. We sent each other a few texts, and agreed to meet on Sunday before I went to work. Upside: Sara has a cheeky, but cool attitude, and is easy to get on with. Downside: Sara is 4 months out of an abusive relationship, is 6 months pregnant, and lives in a shelter for homeless lone parents.
In a nutshell - although we got on OK, we're not gonna be more than friends. Although I will admit we ended up in bed together on Sunday. Nice girl, and from chatting, we're from fairly similar backgrounds. The big difference is, while she has accepted her upbringing as a recurring theme, I heard todays song of the day at age 17 and thought "Hell no". This means that, although 15 years ago we may have been in the same place, right now, we're totally different, and it'll never work out.
Besides...I haven't spent the last 10 years taking care not to get someone pregnant, just to take over someone elses failure to buy condoms this late in the game. Selfish, I know, but hey, I'm single - who else am I gonna look out for if not me?
