Crazyblinddate.com

I just got back from my first crazyblinddate.com date with "X8". This is a new dating thing where you don't see a picture, and no communicating before hand. On Saturday, I got an email saying the date was set up for Sunday evening. I got a text msg half hour before hand, and could communicate with X8 to make sure he showed. We were both surprised that this worked. I was relieved he didn't seem "crazy" (but what would that look like anyhow?). He was short (about my height) and normal build. He kept on talking about the process; I mean, on and on about the process of meeting through crazyblinddate. He was never able to transition into date mode, i.e., find out about me, share about him. Normally, I would feel compelled to ask the questions and find out all about him. But, instead, I let him take the lead, which lead to nowhere. I also filled time talking about nothing, like the beverly center, how it's changed, and century city, how it's changed, and curling irons (which is his business). Maybe I shouldn't do that because that isn't really me, which may have put him off...It was pleasant, but no connection, love or otherwise.
