Dear Mr. Hiking Fanatic

I met Mr. Hiking Fanatic online. We connected, made plans. I canceled them because I thought I could potentially date one of the guys I was seeing for real and a couple months later when I decided that other guy wasn't going to work out, we reconnected.

Dear Mr. Hiking Fanatic,
The reason I liked you in the first place is because I think outdoorsy boys are absolutely adorable and your profile picture had you making this goofy, cute face. Fun! I was excited to finally meet you. Meeting up for coffee first was a great call. I suppose it's always good to chat with a person before you go on a 4 hour round trip hike with them. After I made sure you were safe, we proceeded, though... we probably should have done something less secluded for a first date. oh well. It was beautiful. Active, we got to talk and when we got to the viewpoint, you could see all of La.. I think even to the coast. ugh, what was that hike called? forgot. Anyway, I thought it was appropriate how you came totally prepared with a backpack, extra supplies, walking sticks, expensive hiking boots, the works. It was a funny juxtaposition because I had a water bottle, an apple and a camera and normal tennis shoes. We actually had a great conversation and it wasn't awkward at all. Well, and I refuse to let things be awkward in general, but it was interesting. We actually got to know each other a decent amount and joked around. And I am way more into hiking after this hike for sure. You opened my eyes. I think I wore you out because I made you almost run down the mountain with your backpack to make sure I would make it to work on time. Well, we went down way faster than I expected and made good time. I guess I made us speed for no reason. yeah, sorry about that...

Why did it end if everything supposedly went so well? okay. I'm just going to say it and be honest. Your teeth. They are very... ummmm...English. I'm sorry. I never realized how big a deal teeth are to me. They have to look nice, not perfect, but not distracting either. Yes, this is the part of the blog where my shallowness costs me some respect, but hey, so be it. Gotta tell the truth. But, I don't know if you fixed your teeth if anything would develop anyway. why? Just not feeling it. But the teeth was the biggest point I could remember... You texted me about doing another hike and I truthfully did get very busy and the text got lost in the business of life and I never heard from you again. I'm sorry I never got to officially say goodbye, but thanks for backing off, that was cool. Oh, and you're very nice some girl will be happy to be with you someday.

Sincerely,
Speed hiker chick
