Skills
I’m learning a lot about myself through this process. I know that chemistry is of high importance to me, that a third arm is a no-no, and that you really shouldn’t have to meet anybody whose photo you have to squint at (really squint at) to figure out whether or not you find them attractive.
I’m also learning about my skills, the prime one being my ability to end things nicely, perfectly in fact, before they’ve even begun. I’ve exercised this skill a few times - most recently with Crouch End (tick) photographer (tick) man (tick) (hmmm, hang on…). Friends are even approaching me for said skill.
I’m always happy to discover that I have new skills, though I can’t help but see the irony that, when it comes to online dating, my key strength is the ability to end things nicely.
I’m starting to feel like a premiership footballer at the Winter Olympics (OK, maybe analogies aren’t a skill of mine…).
