Hockey Dating 101

"Aren't you afrai of rejection?"
"You are crazy!"
"How do you know if they're gay or not?"
"Have you no shame?"

my person gets a lot of comments about her personal dating style these days. most people express amazement at what they perceive as fearlessness. some are just curious about how to fine-tune gaydar. others are looking for tips.

there's no secret.
mp has taken a hockey-style approach to dating:
throw a lot of shots at the goal, and eventually something will go in.

mp, for all her self-effacing humor, is decent looking, intelligent, funnier than a sharp stick, comes with great eyes and a goofy smile, and has a job that chicks totally dig. (if you don't know all of this already, don't worry-- she'll tell you.) when she sees something she likes, she busts out with amazing pick-up lines such as, "hey. i like you. wanna go out?"

it's the most outrageous approach to dating ever-- but my person just barely pulls it off.
