She was gorgeous

Apr 23, 2010

I prepared what to wear for the date in the morning before going for work. I had to leave office earlier than usual to prepare myself. I was ready to share openly about myself and ask her to do the same.

I prepared what to wear for the date in the morning before going for work. I had to leave office earlier than usual to prepare myself. I was ready to share openly about myself and ask her to do the same.

After about 30 minutes, she arrived. I became nervous because she looked serious. I took a while to believe she was my date because she was so gorgeous. However, the way she responded made me feel comfortable. She was full of smiles and friendly.

We talked briefly about ourselves. She burst into laughter when I told her I work in Kamwokya. She asked what I do aside from work and studies and I told her I play my keyboard.

She said she spends her free time at Cineplex, watching movies and promised to invite me one day for a movie.

Have you communicated again since then?
She has not yet called me. Unfortunately I did not get her phone number.

Why didn’t you get it?
She had promised to give it to me after the date but I forgot to remind her. But because I had given her mine, I did not mind a lot.

What makes you think she will call?
She promised to and I have no reason to doubt her. She did not look like a person who tells lies.

I found Charles already seated while having a drink. He spoke a lot about his life in secondary school, the nicknames he was called and how he used to dodge prep. I was uncomfortable with the conversation but I listened on.

When I asked if he had a girlfriend, he hesitated, then asked if I had a boyfriend. I told him I would only tell him after he had first answered me. He said he did not have one and I told him I had. He looked puzzled.

I asked when he hoped to get a girlfriend and he said he was in the process. I asked if coming for Mystery Date was part of the process and he replied: “You never know.”

Eventually, I took his number and promised to call him at an appropriate time and we left.

What kind of conversation would you have liked from him?
He should have engaged me in things that appeal to girls, like career issues and future plans.

What did you find impressive about him?
He accepted my corrections without taking offence. There is a time I told him to take off his jacket because it was hot and he did.

Anything you learnt from the date?
I learnt that people can go to unimaginable levels, like Mystery Date, in search of love.
