the hardest word in the world

Another good thing that the challenge taught me was to trust my instincts about people. If I get a bad feeling about a date, it usually ends ups being right. For example, someone that I had emailed a couople of times when I first moved here, called me to kinda re-connect. But when I remembered the reason that we never met in the first place (he said it wasn't a good time for him to meet new people), I decided that this was not a good prospect. Everything about him just made me think it was a bad idea. And for the first time, I felt like I had the luxury of saying no.
