14 and 16 - sigh

I met 14 for lunch on Vday - he's the web guy from Alabama. He's very nice, but I am not attracted to him. As usual. But it doesn't help when he says things like, "I'm not good at math." I want someone that is legitimately good at a lot of stuff so I can trust them to take care of things when I can't. If calculating the tip is difficult for you, we're not gonna work. Sorry. I felt bad though because he said he was nervous. I was soooo not nervous. I think I'm getting desensitized to this whole thing. Although my friend assures me that eventually I'll go out with a guy where I'm nervous and not eating because of it.

I met 16 for lunch today - he's the Brazilian lawyer. See the first few sentences of paragraph above. Sheesh. This one didn't appear to be nervous, but he talks too much and he talks a little loud. The whole time I'm like, I hope people don't think we're together because this is a little embarassing. On the other hand, we had some very intellectual conversation about traveling in Europe, and about Shakespeare. He's a smart lawyer even though he didn't go to a law school I consider particularly good (no, I'm not saying which one). When I left I thought, at least he was smart! Even if he is a bit of a spit-talker. Double sigh.

I've decided that I need to be more selective about who I choose talk to on eharmony. I mean, I need to be more restrictive based on the photos - usually I just know that I'm not going to be attracted, and I should just go with that gut feeling. Otherwise I'm gonna get burned out, and then what will I write about on this blog?!!?
