Thanks for the support everyone. Sorry for the short delay again, but it is tricky trying to keep everything on track. I only have one story to report anyway.
This happened at least a month ago at a superhero pub crawl. I went as Captain PajamaPool and I started off with a 2x2 IS and Ammo Blue when I got there. A few hours later, when I had to put my bag back in my car because it was getting in the way, I applied MX297 and Ammo Blue. I was going to apply TUTH, but I hadn’t removed the plastic seal, so I couldn’t use it.
When I had returned to one of my favorite pubs on the crawl, things got interesting. I met this one girl who was dressed up as Domino and some strong chemistry definitely seemed to be there. She recognized me from the DragonCon Deadpool group and after chatting for a bit, she approached me to dance and I fumbled through some flirting while we danced. A little later, I was ordering an addictive and evil Amaretto Sour and she came up and took the cherry from the drink. The bartender actually handed me another one and she then proceeded to eat it out of my hand.
As we proceeded to the next pub on the list, she actually took my hand and allowed me to lead her as we went to the next few pubs. This was something that I had never experienced before, but it was a light grip that kind of felt very mutual and almost like she was allowing me to be a more dominant leader. I hope that makes sense, lol.
The chemistry definitely seemed to grow stronger as we kept going. At the last pub, we were actually dancing, flirting, and joking about pranking some of the Supermen that were there. I directed her attention to one by simply sliding my hand up to her chin, ran my fingers down her chin, and turned her head towards the target Superman.
Unfortunately, that last pub was also when everything began to fall apart. While she was in the ladies room, I tried to get some help from her friends to make a good impression. It was then that I found out that she was married. One of her friends repeatedly emphasized that she was married to a lawyer. It felt like she was trying to make me feel inadequate and get me to leave. Thankfully, the personal progress that I have made over the last year has resulted in a lot more confidence and security in myself.
I eventually excused myself and went to look for some friends. I ended up leaving when I saw that she was outside crying and I just started wondering what was wrong with me if every time that I think that I am getting somewhere with a girl, it turns out that she is taken. I also felt guilty for the outcome and I didn’t want to make it any worse for her. If it hadn’t been for the married thing, this would have easily been the single best situation that I have had with a girl at one of these events.
I know that it doesn’t have a happy ending, but I wanted to at least give you all an update.
