llywela*big sigh*
On my way home from work tonight I got chatted up by some random bloke in Virgin Megastores who asked me out for a drink, and I was so shocked (because that kind of thing just doesn't happen to me) that I said no. And I've been regretting it ever since.
Thing is that he seemed nice, but I'm really never going to know because I shall never see him again. I didn't want to swap numbers because that has worked out badly before. Also, the last time I randomly agreed to have a drink with someone, we had that one date and he instantly started phoning and texting constantly as if we were soulmates or something, and it scared me off. I suppose with hindsight, it would have been okay to say something like, 'how about Starbucks after work on such-and-such a day', but I panicked and just said no. I mean, I might have said yes and regretted that, too - who knows?
I was browsing the sci fi DVDs and we had a conversation about the phasing out of VHS and the pros and cons of DVDs before the asking out thing happened. He's probably a sci fi nerd, and as such would suit me down to the ground! Or, on the other hand, he might have been not so suitable. No way of knowing, because I blew it.
Ah well. Such is life. And pop goes another chance at romance. I think I am cursed.

Just a thought.
