My Brunch With Mike

So I had my brunch with Mike as scheduled at Dupont Italian Kitchen last Saturday.

It was very nice, and he’s cute — very cute for 40 — and I felt very comfortable with him. He’s a good southern boy who’s spent his whole life in North Carolina. Mike recently relocated to the big city to pursue his love of singing with the gay chorus here, and just to make a change in his life.

But so far, for some reason I can’t put my finger on, I don’t feel any chemistry or sparks. He’s not fey, and I generally like southern guys… so I’m not sure what the deal is.

I think he likes me though. He seemed to sincerely want to see each other again at the end of the date, and he’s e-mailed and called since then. Anyway, my mind is open. I’m willing to give it another shot, but I don’t want to lead him on.
