Welcome to my life

Writing a dating blog, cliche right? Probably. However, as many, MaNy, MANY people have already written: people don't date, they hook up or become boyfriend girlfriend.

Bored yet?

Well, I'm not claiming these people are wrong, but I refuse to let them be 100 percent right.

I'm here to write and attempt to live the dating life.



I live my life going on constant "maybe dates**" blurring into late night extravaganzas with friends. Where's the line? A beer? A bottle? Day? Night?

I don't know. But, really, isn't that the fun of it?

My friends say, "How do you manage to date?"

I just sort of do.

My goal here does not include exploiting my own life or those in it, just making reference to common occurrences,... that may or may not happen in my life or those around me and drawing wider cultural interpretations.

Sound verbose? It probably is.

Let's be serious, "Daring to live and daring to date" is meant to explore old topics in new territories and, if there's one thing I learned growing up, exploring usually includes an adventure and adventures are fun.

So stay tuned.

**Diclib.com defines a maybe date as a pseudodate, "A maybe date. Could be considered a real date or just hanging out together, depending on how it goes."
**HOWEVER, I'd like to define it a little bit looser, a maybe date is a situation where two people of the opposite sex (or same) are hanging out. They are not necessarily opposed to hooking up, aka they both find each other some what attractive, but at the moment they just like each other as people. But then again, you never know what could happen on a maybe date?
