Ready, aim, fire

One of the first women I was interested in after my divorce laughed in my face after I asked her to dinner. I was baffled as to why that was her reaction. I was handsome and confident. I had my own place, a good job, my bills were paid, and I managed a 754 credit score. As it turns out, she was “holding it down” for someone who was recently incarcerated. Talk about a shot to the ego. In that moment, I thought dating was a lost cause, but looking back - I dodged a bullet. I sincerely hope that she learned to dodge bullets too.
