Well how did the date go?

So the date went well... but it was bad timing. It was right before Christmas break. So I didn't get to follow up very well on it. She went back home for the holidays (out of state), and I only talked to her a couple of times after that.

Back then, it wasn't as easy to get to know someone. No mobile phones, no e-mail, no social media. The only time you could catch them if they weren't right in front of you was by phone... and only if they were at home at the time.

So a gap like that between first and second date... and little communication in-between... doomed. But no big deal... it was a great experience, and I got lots of confidence out of asking a girl out in a second language. One of these days, I will figure out how to do it in English!
