Happy

At last, KfW2 and I had our long-awaited night out last night, and seeing her was absolutely brilliant. I arrived at hers, played with her kids for an hour while she got ready, and it was tremendous to see them too.

There was a small element of frustration. the event we were attending was only meant to last a few hours and it started early. But KfW2 never suggested that we might do something afterwards. I mean, this was her evening, so I expected a little organisation.

That aside, apart from a small period where we went to one of KfW2's local bars, it was a great night. I don't know what it was... I didn't really like the place, though I would struggle to explain why. I went quiet. On more than one occasion, KfW2 threatened that if I didn't start talking, she'd get me up to dance. And yet, I simply couldn't start a conversation.

Once we left the pub and were walking back to KfW2's, the conversation just flowed again. Really weird.

We did discuss the fact that we'd not had a night out in ages. Well, I discussed it because I wanted it out there. Even with a three-year hiatus due to Covid, it's still far too long for close friends to socialise together, in my opinion.

KfW2 suggested that we had done so, last year, for her leaving drinks. And I disagreed, offering that a 20-minute period at the end of the night, when she could barely stand, didn't really count.

I don't know that I got my point across, and earlier in the evening, she had mentioned that not only is she going on a weekend away with CC, but there's an imminent spa day as well. I did suggest that getting to see her more often was something I wanted to do this year.

All-in-all though, I had a really great night. It was, of course, brilliant to get KfW2 out (strictly speaking she got me out) on her own, and I hope that's something we do more often this year. I'll certainly be making more effort and possible being a little more direct, too.

So, as a big-ish coincidence, guess who popped up in my Tinder feed today? No? Well, given recent posts on Tinder non-matches, it was the We...
