So, I've started thinking I might be willing to take a step or two out of my dating hiatus. But then I started thinking, hmmmm, how do I get men to ask me out? How do I flirt or make myself appear open to suggestion?

 

Haha it's so funny the things we forget.

 

Then I remembered a recent thread on this board. Someone was asking about this very thing - and I really liked the answer someone gave of start by smiling.

 

I work at home most of the time but generally go for a walk in the evenings (living in a big city.) So, I decided that last night I would be friendly, smile and make myself open to being asked out.

 

Then I promptly forgot I had any agenda and just enjoyed my walk.

 

Sure enough, this guy and I started talking and he asked me to come hear him play at a local bar.

 

Now, granted this is not a date but the whole experience was very pleasant and I felt validated, like I had successfully manifested exactly what I wanted.

 

I might stop by and hear him next week. Still very happy on my own doing my thing, too.
