Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

after one date the woman tells me she's not interested, and I was thinking, "But how could you know after only one date?"

Sometimes after one encounter I don't have any interest in knowing anything else about the person. There's not enough synergy to make the push and pull worth it.

Sometimes after one encounter (or during the same) I want to slam them against the wall and do naughty things to them.

Sometimes during the first encounter I think I don't want the encounter to stop.

And sometimes I don't mind the idea of more, even if I don't crave it.

It really varies--and I don't have to dislike someone to not be interested. Just that they don't quirk my eyebrows at all.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

ita, that all makes sense. Just wish I had that understanding years ago.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Yeah, exactly.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I bet the race mixing has taken care of much of that in America.

Likely as not. Still tough on your average racist. Won't anyone think of the racists?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Won't anyone think of the racists?

I try very, very hard not to.

Sadly, they make it impossible.

tommy, under the circumstances, I'd say you should be more worried about her clicking than you clicking -- because if she's interested in continuing, you'll get a chance to see if your click has time to happen....

KCD and I had that click, talked most of that first night away. Ah well. The date I had a couple of weeks ago was click-less for both of us, though we did have a pleasant meal and conversation.

You know, just because it didn't work out absolutely forever, I hope it wasn't all bad. And you have two great kids because of it too.

DxH and I clicked. We can still talk for ages. Can't be married, but it doesn't mean I wish we hadn't clicked at all.
