Is this how it works?

Why can't I ever just leave a man in Crushland? Why is there never a stone unturned, why must I always check just to be sure? Does anything ever happen except Another Bridge Burned? If he is interested in the polite coffee chitchat, the safe topics, if there is a smidgen of chemistry, it will suddenly be over and then he will be another man I see on the street, who I see at shows, who I see waiting in line for coffee in this small town, another to add to the list of It Wasn't Anyone's Fault It Just Didn't Work Out. But is this dating, this awkward dance? Do I just hope like hell I keep taking these chances, asking strangers to coffee because this is what you do?

Is this what you do?
