Dating Game

Date: 6/27/2020

I’m in this weird dating game. The game instructs me to to pick a male to get to know. I decide I want someone mysterious. So, naturally, I pick the guy with the hoodie and sunglasses. His build is lean and muscular. He’s tall. I think I’ll like him. My second choice was this guy named Kevin who had purple hair. The game suggests we dine with our picks. I ask Mr. Mystery where he wants to go, and the minute he speaks I know him. He sounds like Nate. And now that I look more closely, this is Nate. I tell him to take off his glasses. He does and I’m startled and a bit disappointed to see that he doesn’t have Nate’s striking blue eyes. His eyes are green. Almost like a cat, his eyes glow dangerously. His face is a bit different, stronger chin, but not as nice of eyebrows. He’s attractive, but again I’m disappointed it’s not my original Nate. He tells me he wants to eat Thai food. We go to a Thai restaurant and I expect him to order Pad Thai, Nate’s favorite. But he doesn’t and orders a sea food dish. Again, this is not Nate. I have to stop thinking it is. We talk and laugh, I like him. At the end of the night we walk in the park and he kisses me. It’s not what I had hoped for. There is no spark.
