I have met a lot of people for conversations. Since my 20s. Random people.

If I suggest meeting up with a person for ☕️, drink 🍹🥃🍷or even a meal, that means I find that person interesting and want to talk to them more.

Sometimes, guys take that the WRONG way and interpret it as my asking them out on a date. NOPE!

It’s simply conversation, that’s it.

There was the time I met an interesting 🇬🇧British man at an event, along with his very Blonde wife who was loud and obnoxious.

The 🇬🇧Business man was an expat whose company was based in San Francisco, and we discussed 🇬🇧London for a bit. He gave me his business card. (I still prefer actual physical business cards!)

He flew to Japan for a business trip. We discussed getting together.

I asked when he was available to meet up for a drink or dinner.

Never heard from him again.

Oops. It didn’t occur to me til much later that he probably thought I was trying to have an affair.

Um, NO! I simply wanted to discuss 🇬🇧London and British stuff. And he was a Black British Man, like 🇬🇧Idris Elba, excellent in TV series “The Wired” recommended to me by a guy friend who was a Saks Fifth Avenue 💻 Guy.

But haha, totally understandable WHY he assumed that cuz that would be the more typical thing if a woman wanted to meet a married man for drinks or/and dinner.

Please! Altho his very Blonde, ditzy 🇺🇸Wife was very annonying (she was in Sales, I know girls like her), I would hope her husband would NOT step out on her.

Personally, I find girls who pursue a guy when he’s already dating someone or already in a monogamous, serious relationship with another woman to be PATHETIC!

That’s called breaking Girl Code!

Many girls can NOT function without a man cuz that’s where they get their self esteem & self-confidence from.

Especially the PRETTY girls who wear skimpy, tight clothes DESPERATELY trying to attract male attention. ICK!

Pathetic, imho!

The kinds of girls who definitely do NOT pass my SUPER SUPER VERY VERY High Filter Bar to be my Girl Friend!

I’m someone who asked one of my BFFs if it would ok for me to meet up with a guy friend of hers that she like liked at one time, and they were never romantically involved AND she was already in a serious romantic relationship with a guy she married.

He and I never ended up even getting together, but he had a trust fund and was VERY physically attractive. And a Stanford Uni alum. Successful business guy whose name that I still remember.

(When a person is VERY physically attractive, interesting, or/and talented, you tend to remember those people, even after many years have passed.)

Anyway, one very talented creative artsy guy Kyle — who had very pale skin, sorta 🇬🇧Robert Smith of 🇬🇧The Cure — who liked robots whom I had ☕️ with once in my 20s in SF knows a Musician that 🇬🇧Neil Gaiman knows. They collaborated on music or something cuz Kyle was obsessed with the band that I had never heard of before our coffee conversation.

Musician has an album of many love songs.

I haven’t heard the album yet but did go to his book event. He’s a funny fellow and seemed very nice!
