I went out with this guy a few times and I felt the instant chemistry. Or maybe I just got it confused with sexual tension.
But we weren't just flirting. We talked about our interests, our immediate goals in life, our families, and some more. He was smart. We had similar backgrounds. I was having a connection with this guy.
I thought it was already the spark I was looking for -- the one that was missing from the previous guy (see previous posts).
That's why it felt natural to kiss him by the second date.
Then on the third date -- bam -- he reveals he was still legally married and had two kids. He was separated and assured his wife wasn't chasing him.
That brought me out of the bubble. He must have sensed the change in me because we changed the topic to more trivial stuff. It was a pity really since we had good conversations. I asked him if we could at least be friends, and I told him that I shouldn't kiss him anymore. I didn't need any additional baggage right now.
But his response revealed that friendship wasn't enough for him since he knew we were attracted to each other. How naive I was to think he would be fine to stay as friends.
I knew I wasn't up for acting on that attraction.
It was nice knowing you then.
