About this ebook
Sometimes the prospect of dating can be overwhelming. It’s like the dating gods are against you. One bad date is followed by a disastrous date which is followed by a deathly boring date which is followed by . . . we get the picture. You have the strangest dating experiences of anyone you know. It’s like you’re a weirdo magnet and you just can’t bring yourself to start over yet again. What’s the use? You’d rather stay home in front of the television and watch a movie (or twelve). And your hall closet has needed organizing for months. Maybe now is the time to do it.
Well, in truth your dating experiences, while interesting, may not be as unusual as you think. Ranging from the sweet, to the entertaining to the strange to the borderline frightening, the short stories and poems in this compilation are proof that just about every single person out there, male or female, divorced or never married, has experienced something similar to what you have experienced. But these accounts are not shared in order to provide company to those in misery. Rather, they are offered as a brief port in the storm. Something you can enjoy for a couple of hours before accepting that blind date, posting that dating profile, or putting on those dancing shoes and heading out to the party with your best self in-tact, secure in the knowledge that it will be an interesting and sometimes bumpy ride, but you are not alone.
