我的约会日记

Tonight, something happened that left me feeling quite disheartened. I had made plans with a girl to meet at her place, but when I arrived, she didn't come down. We had met once before and everything had gone smoothly, but tonight was a completely different story. I waited for 45 minutes, not counting the 20 minutes it took me to get there, for a total of 65 minutes. I had timed it just right, and when the 45 minutes were up, I left. I paid the 3 yuan parking fee and headed home. Just as I was almost there, she called me, saying she was ready and wondering why I hadn't responded. I didn't answer, having already thought of an excuse to use the next day - that I had fallen asleep in the car. Many friends don't understand why I didn't just wait a bit longer, but the truth is, I've been burned in similar situations before. There was a time when I liked a girl, and we had already slept together, but when I went to pick her up the second time, I waited for four hours, from 2 pm to 6 pm. When she finally came down, she casually mentioned that her mom had been cooking dinner and she had taken a nap because she wasn't feeling well. I tried to play it cool, but my mental state had already collapsed. When I drove her back, I even crashed into someone else's car in the neighborhood. Needless to say, nothing happened that day. So, if I had waited this time, even if she had eventually shown up, it would have affected my mood, and I wouldn't have been in the right mindset. Moreover, if I had waited, she might have taken even longer next time, so the best strategy was to retreat and not let my emotions get the better of me. I just pretended I had gone for a drive to listen to music, and that way, I avoided becoming a slave to my desires.
