Jew Boy

Much to my surprise, the hits were coming in, Internet dating hits. I had no idea what I was doing or how to field the emails. I felt a strange obligation to talk to every guy who sent me a email. Initially, I did too much talking to all of the wrong people. I will say, there are some fucking freaks out there!

In my very venerable state of Internet dating confusion, it took about a month to realize all of the facets, but there finally came an email that I was highly interested in. This guy was by far, the hottest guy that I had communicated with since joining the site. From this point forward, I will refer to him as Jew Boy. (I had no idea that he was Jewish, since his profile stated that he was "spiritual, but not religious." But that is a whole other story that I am sure will follow).

We spend just four short days emailing, then much to my surprise, he dropped his phone number. This guy was not fucking around and I liked it.

"Hi! When I go to Dallas I usually end up on a friend's couch at Cole's Corner behind Primo's! We seem to go to The Loon, Nakita, Republic, The Quater, the sports bar on the corner (I forget the name of it), TABC, all of those and others I'm sure I am leaving out. I live pretty close to Woody's, so I have been there a few times, same with the mule. I also like a couple of places on 7th Street and in downtown. If I am with the right people, I do not care so much where I go (for the most part)! As far as work, I was a pharmaceutical rep for about 5 years and just started a new job selling orthopedic devices. So far it has been the right move. I love music, all different types , but I do have my favorites. Just about anything from the 70's, especially funk and disco, always put me in good spirits, but I have a big range of taste.Anyway, maybe we can have some drinks together sometime and hang out. Here is my number, or if you want to give me your's, we could talk sometime ............... Hope to hear from you."

I gave him my number in return, somehow putting aside the fact that his favorite music was funk and disco! What the fuck??
