"You'll find LOVE when you least expect it"!, My other favorite...
"If it is within your DESTINY it will happen".
Wow, thanks for the advice, spoken by all the 'Love Einsteins' of this world!
Don't you just love these words of wisdom...in effect, spoken by many and lived by very few. Pretty difficult advice to follow if you are a type A personality whom makes things happen as opposed to watching things happen. Isn't that what our society teaches us...be the leader of your life not the spectator...Just how is a single woman in her 30's supposed to believe in this crappy advice? She is so busy with her career during the day, and goes home at night. Yes, we do hit the gym, see family, go out with friends but life does change as you age...you are more in than out...gentlemen get your mind out outta' the gutter!
This blog is more of an experience as opposed to a date, however, I felt the need to add it to my roster of dates for it was quite a bizarre experience nonetheless. At this point six months of dating had passed and quite frankly I was exhausted by it...I had treated it like a part-time job...time for a time-out. That's right, it was time for a little vacay...a vacation from my single life!
Like any good Canadian or snow bird, my friends and I got the itch to go down south for one week to get away from the North Pole...bye bye Santa...hello Juan Valdez! We took off for sunny Punta Cana in the Domenican Republic...four single women looking for warmth and sun...
Date 4: Would you like to experience a threesome?
There we were in sunny Punta Cana for one week...we had just landed when we decided to change into our bathing suits and head for the pool...or should I come clean right now...more like the pool bar. There we were at the pool bar...yes we were definitely drinking and somewhat flirting...it is here that I met this wonderful gentleman from Ottawa...a city not too far from home...things were looking up...giddy-up!
We had numerous conversations about so many different topics...while he was speaking I scanned his finger to see if there was any indication of a significant other in his life; no wedding ring, check, no mention of the wifey or girlfriend, check...We had a great time and I have to admit there were some light flirtations going back and forth....and we left it at that.
Here we were, four women on vacay...but Catherine (aka cell phone life-saver) and I had our own personal Punta Cana routine going. We would wake up fairly early and head to the beach, all morning long, we would soak up the sun and drench our skin in wonderful salt water. In the afternoon we would definitely hit the pools. We were staying at a five star all-inclusive hotel, the food was incredible and the pools with their unique themes were amazing!
I would meet Mr. Ottawa at the pool bar every afternoon, this happened for 4 days straight in total before he hit me with his bombshell. At this point, I thought he was such a nice guy....remember the word 'nice' and how it often spells the kiss-of-death...well here we go again...oh brother...
We were into one of our intimate conversations when he came out with this question: "Erika, I am very attracted to you...do you feel the same toward me?" I answered as honestly as I could: "Yes..." That was all I could muster at that moment because attraction is usually something one feels but is not a subject that is asked about face-to-face at point blank range. And he proceeded with, "The reason I am asking is because....well do you see that woman there by the kiddie pool with her son, the one with the purple bikini...?" I answered, "Yes, I see her"....
Mr. Ottawa continued on, "Well...she is my wife and...she agrees with me in asking you this question...would you participate in a threesome with us...?" At this very moment, Erika choked on her drink and nearly vomitted all of her drinks and...lunch was on its way out as well... What do you suppose I answered at this point? 'Cause his wifey was all of sudden next to me, rubbing my shoulder....
Stay tuned for the answer on her next blog date where she will reveal all the gory details...moohahaha....(sounds like a horror movie, doesn't it? Being single can be a horror movie....but I digress...
"And I am outta here"....remember when Dennis Miller used to state these words on SNL during the 80's?
