The summer is my favorite time of the year. If the on the time of the calendar year when the rain stops and the sun comes out. Living in Seattle Washington has its perks like close snow-covered mountains but alas good availability of sun is not one of them. I also love the summer because it's that time of the year when my dating life reaches a new peak. I was out at a bar with my friend last Friday night when this guy approached me and offered to buy a drink. Turns out that he's a lawyer with the intellectual property law form near the lake. He and I decided to grab dinner and a movie last Friday and I was really looking forward to it. However my plans were crushed to the ground when he called up on Friday afternoon and told me that his boss is making them work late-night on Friday night. The whole episode reminded me of my friend Sarah, who is a single mother, and the issues she faces in her relationship dating with the aggresive work schedule of her boyfriend.
I think over the years it is becoming harder and harder to find stable reliable singles in Seattle. Bars and nightclubs are amazing venues to meet singles but it hard to meet professional singles in that kind of environment. I wondered whether you do the educated singles go out on Friday night? I think the tricky part of dating a workaholic is to adjust to his work schedule and be prepared about last-minute date cancellations. The guy from last week did call me up and apologized for canceling the date. And he even offered to pick me up this time and agreed to watch a chick flick with me as a way to compensate for missing the last date.
