30 Dates in 30 Days

So I've taken on the 30-day 30-date challenge.  For those who are unfamiliar with this challenge, it is a social experiment to explore oneself.  The quest's end goal may differ per individual, but for me, here's what I'm going for:
  • It is a time to assess my likes, my dislikes, how I interact with men, how they perceive me, how I perceive them and why I accomodate so much.
  • I will also learn to say no.
  • I will put myself in uncomfortable situations so as to get over my fear of them.
  • I will sharpen my people reading skills and learn to detect people I would not want to interact with.
  • I will stop being so trusting in every man I meet.
  • I will learn that there are assholes in this world (I believe I've been sheltered from these types).
  • I will learn to cut out the bullshit.
  • I will better know what qualities I want in a man.
I will consider BestBuy guy as date #4 and proceed from there.  #1, #2 and #3 were casual encounters with people that I already know and still speak to, but I will consider them as dates, since it was a 1-on-1 outing.  However, I won't go into these now as I already have lots of logging to do for future dates to come.

So shall the learning begin!
