So close, yet so far (but a confidence booster none the less)
Hi everyone, M27 here, something interesting happened last night when I was at a bar with a friend. I'm pretty shy and not too social so this caught me off guard. I was hanging out and this 46 year old woman walked up to me and shot me a compliment, so I shot one back at her and we talked for a moment. She went to go take a shot with her friends, then she started dancing so I walked over to her and grabbed her hand and gave her a twirl. We were dancing, talking and vibing, even close to kissing at one point, until the killer came up. She said "wait! How old are you, cause that's important?" I replied with 27 and it shocked her and she was like "Ohh you're too y0ung" and I was like that's ok I'm fine with it, I like older women and she shut it down with her son's older than me blah, blah, blah and the most she'd go is 10 years younger than her. We still danced and she was still calling me handsome and cute and grabbed me under my chin but, when all was said and done I asked for her number and she declined and told me to go dance with he girls around my age there.
It sucked but I consider it a win because it was the first time I'd ever been approached, it boosted my confidence and made me feel good, and ultimately reflect on the amount of courage I have to build up to approach and she just casually walked over and did it. I Just felt like venting and sharing my story as it did in a way make my night.
Thanks for reading!
