Now for the tricky part

Now we are up to the exciting part....assimilation! This is where I do my best to move towards my vision by whatever means possible. Apparently I just have to try stuff and learn from it (whether it works or not is irrelevant). It's the persistence and the momentum that will pay off.

So I'm going to try some stuff. Only I'm not real sure what stuff just yet. But surely I'll figure it out as I go.

If there's one theory I do subscribe to, it's leaving the house.....as it's not likely he will knock on my front door. So the real trick is going to be leaving the house A LOT. Apart from my usual online activities that is. Not to down play them, they often lead to me getting out the house after all!

I'm a little concerned that this is not a new approach though. I mean, I already leave the house a lot. Every day in fact. So there has to be more to it than that. I think it might have to be about how I act when I'm out of the house. Hmmm, not sure. Well, I'll act different then. Unclear as to how yet - but I will.

Maybe it would help if I started with some loose goals in place? Oh scary, objectives mean I have to get serious and try and achieve them. The pressure! I feel fear and trepidation building in the pit of my stomach.

But I'm game. Let's go I guess, nothing ventured, nothing gained and all that. This is what I'm going to try:

- To go on a date once a week minimum (online dates count)
- To approach one attractive male EVERY time I go out to a pub /bar/ club and engage him in conversation
- Ask at least one friend in the next 4 weeks to set me up on a blind date
- Ask at least one man out a month - online doesn't count

OMG I feel sick now, I've just agreed to meet at mate at the pub tonight to play trivia. Actually he was kind of more than a mate, but not any longer. Is it even appropriate to approach a man whilst out with him? What if there are no attractive men at the pub? What then hey?

I guess you'll find out the answer to that tomorrow. May the force be with me.
