While I advocate self-reliance, I’m also a realist. So, if a random hook-up provides a suitable distraction, go for it. Just watch out for the confusion that might follow. Post-hookup is when guys tend to get vague. Do they want to hook up again? Unclear. Do they want to court you? Unclear. Are they straight? Unclear.
One thing to keep in mind is that—as hard as it may be to realize—this is an important and valuable experience.
And never, never, never feel like you weren’t good enough. This happens to the best of us. And we all have to learn to move on. Your dreamboat awaits you at the last chance dance.
Your Yenta,
Nikki
