Tommer Dates Again: Entry 0.1
THE FUCKENING has not happened. It could have happened on Sunday, May 7, 2023, with Erin, not the same one from 0.09, no, there are so many Erins. None have brought about the fuckening, though some have tried. This Erin is an attorney, and has had a hard time finding a partner, while her siblings…

We are one chapter away from 0.1. The tension is killing me. Will the fuckening happen? Not like there’s a consequence if it doesn’t, just asking, will it? This isn’t really fun anymore, I think. I’m currently listening to Okey Dokey, watching, Life in Color on Netflix, after having cleaned wine off the only valuable…

After writing 0.07, I learned of the term, “Aspartame Daddy“, which is far more relevant to my station in life than “Sugar Daddy”. Florence Florence and I went out once more on March 24, to Margot Cafe & Bar. The food, cocktails, ambience, and service were all phenomenal. The conversation was light and fun, as…

My psychiatrist went AWOL. We’ve been meeting every other week for a couple years. Our last appointment that she made it to was on January 12. But we had a Zoom call today. It’s as awkward as a first date, at first. Where the fuck do I start with her? I’m angry she bailed on…

I had a second date with Marin on Monday, March 6. We played bar trivia, ended up with 0 points, and had a great time. But I felt no romantic chemistry – I even tried to force it – so I won’t be going further with her. I texted Susan on March 8, about a…

I uninstalled the apps after meeting Susan, my one remaining Tinder match. Susan and I met at a bar semi-full of families and delightfully weird patrons with their dogs. She drank a couple Jack-and-Cokes. I drank a few stout beers. We talked until she had to run home to take her 11yo dog out for…

I rejoined Tinder on Friday, January 27, 2023. I swiped for probably 30 minutes, mostly left. Anti-vaxxers, Trump lovers, religious nuts, couples looking for a third, profiles where the age didn’t seem to match the face by at least 10 years, profiles espousing various non-religious, gym-based cults, profiles espousing actual cults, profiles with longer bios…

I’ve been carrying a torch for someone since 2006, and I learned recently that she’s dead. B died in March. I found out last Friday, September 23. I was feeling nostalgic and wanted to see what she was up to on social media. I came across a post from her husband asking for his family’s…

I found warts on my genitals about four years ago. It had been about four months since my last longish-term (two-year) relationship ended, after my partner semi-dumped me, asked if we could still be together, but differently, went on a weekend trip to visit friends, came back, and, after I drove her home from the…
