I’ve started going to a new dive bar in my area and it’s just the type of place I could become a regular at without too much trouble. But for one thing — the regulars there sort of have decided I’m not for them.
So, either I press on and try to get into their good graces or I kinda of give up and just don’t go nearly as often as I would like.
But that’s not the real issue, the real issue is that I’m 100% extroverted and see the place as an opportunity to make new friends. But most of the other customers just see me as a middle aged creepy weirdo.
Especially the young women.
Who aren’t even that young! They’re in their 30s!
But, such is life. I’m reminded yet again that I should have moved to NYC when I left Seoul. But I just was not in an emotional state to do such a thing. Now, I think I might be able to pull it off, but for, you know, having no money and being too old and bonkers to do it.
