You may have noticed, there is one huge expectation missing from that dream sequence: the date actually going well. Call me what you want, but I don’t necessarily need fireworks, belly laughs or an intellectual match – I mean, I’m funny and smart enough for the both of us – but my ideal scenario does at least include who can engage in good conversation and take initiative.
We strolled through the park on what looked at the outset to be a random path, but was clearly a meticulously thought-through route because we ended up at a sweet shop in Mayfair he wanted me to see. Clarification: this was a healthy sweet shop… they sold dried bananas. And he bought some. Think of that what you will.
After drinks, he had made us reservations at Benihana, so made our way down there where he had requested a table out of the hustle and bustle of family tables. At the time, I thought Benihana was the pièce de résistance of dating locations. ‘A fancy restaurant where the man cooks in front of you?’ I thought. ‘What kind of rom com world am I living in?’ More com, apparently – because it turns out, if you have curly hair, you cannot go to Benihana.
But then we arrived at the salsa bar. Since I’d told him I couldn’t salsa, I expected we would just have a drink and watch others. Oh no, this man was dancing whether I could or not. Watching the crowd, I could see he was itching to get involved – as was a woman on the dancefloor. ‘You go ahead,’ I told him, half-joking and fully expecting him to say no.
