So I finally got over my MDMA induced pussiness.

There's a girl I've had a casual thing with at work, out of this world sex, sometimes just a cold beer and a giggle after work.
Recently our company underwent a merger and in some of the recent re-structuring I'm going to be her line manager. Not sure how I feel about this or what I'm going to do.

Summer has hit which means lots of drinking on what are affectionately called "Terrasses" which are essentially beer gardens or decking in the city. I find it tends to be a little less social as there are less people passing than at the bar. But it's nice to be in the sun in 28 degree heat and the smokers are really social.
Generally I tend to meet more girls/people sat at the bar where there's beer and music and when I hit it off, move outside. It also makes it easier to wander off and go home.

I usually have an online date once per week now. Most recently a psychology doctorate who whilst a little naive was cute and super upbeat. I tend to start off with a coffee by the mountain and then go for a walk. I can get the drinks which are usually reasonable and go with the whole hand holding whilst walking and kissing somewhere picturesque.
Pros: super low key no pressure, touching and kissing is very easy
Cons: usually during the day so same day sex rarely happens

It was the Canada Grand Prix weekend and I'd always avoided it until this year. I decided to go see some stand-up comedy then mosey downtown to see what the fuss is. Essentially it's big crowds and people selling crap with car logos on... not really my cup of tea. Everything's a more English for this event and it makes me realise that I cherish not being subjected to inane chatter when I'm out.

I bump into some Vancouvans visiting to have fun for the Grand Prix and staying with someone's family. It's clear 1 of the guys likes one of the girls but is in the friend zone hard and views me as a threat (who wouldn't I'm fun and exotic here ). The other guy just wants to get drunk and pull a Quebecer, I joke with them about the horrible French accent and the way they squark "Ouias!!" like a duck during sex (a little racist but he likes the banter). One of the girls, C, is a graphic designer and we hit it off talking about "crazy customers", we talk a little bit about inspiration and what we like doing and move on to personal stuff and my painted ukulele.
One of the lads gets shots and we do a little bit of jigging to the folk band. Whilst everyones up and I'm dancing close to C, I suggest showing her my ukulele over some wine and a cigar at mine. I thought I was up for a little resistance as she starts asking how she'll get back but when I tell her she can uber or I'll drop her in the morning she tells her friend and we slip away.

We actually got to smoke cigars on my balcony with a little ukulele with wine and beer which was pretty epic.

Here I use public transport or my moped. It's a nice moped that can easily take 2 people and doesn't really look like a moped but at the end of the day it's a moped.
I didn't really know how girls would take to this but the general consensus is quite positive so far - they seem to love slipping through town with a skid lid and the sun.
I think part of it is that it's a little bit scary/naughty going on something akin to a motorbike as it's a little dangerous but it's also small enough to not really pose a big threat.
Either way, having my own nice place has a far greater effect than what I've ever driven has...

For balance, I'd like to include some of my failing recently... just in case anybody had mistakenly assumed I was a stone cold pussy slayer

Was at a bar with a colleague and a couple of his friends joined us. I thought I was getting good vibes off of the girl as the conversation and humour is flowing. I slowly play with her hand and then hold it. She doesn't reciprocate but doesn't pull away so I'm not phased...
I go for a kiss later and she just turns her head away. Never acknowledges it either..
I give up and enjoy the rest of my evening.

Thought I was having polite and great conversation with what appeared to be a delightful lesbian in between a band playing. Intelligent and thoughtful but no chemistry. I reached over for my beer and she took it as a move and properly forced her tongue between my lips. Awkward apologies ensued

I went on an internet date with a rather independent and strong willed fashion store manager. Entertainment and food was amazing but wasn't overly feeling the company. Begin to make my excuses but she's rather insistent in dropping me off much to my protests. Long story short she takes twice as long dropping me home as public transport and asks me for gas money!

Just a funny event...
On my birthday I met this Irish guy called Davey. He was paying at the bar and being congratulated. Turns out he'd known the woman he was with for 36 hours and they'd been engaged for 16 of those. Saturday passed I signed as a witness at there wedding.

Enjoyed the read!

Slow week really

Went for a date with a pof.com girl last weekend. Very beautiful but neither of us was feeling it. Nobody followed up.

Had an fwb drop round midweek for what she said would be some fun. Drinks and partway into a film in she drops that it's the time of the month and she wasn't really in the mood.
She apologised the next day but I might knock it on the head as I'd rather not entertain the assumption that we'd become more than carnal (and I feel that's where she's going)

In the past 2 months that's happened 4 times where weather stopped play. Generally happens with online dates where we haven't had sex yet

This week should be interesting, I have a date with a girl who speaks no English have been invited to a LGBT friendly nightclub.

What does she speaks?

100% francaise! Well quebecoise. She didn't speak any English.

I find with the francophone girls here that if it's on, it's pretty much always casual. If it's serious they want somebody who talks French as a main if not mother tongue. I have come to the same conclusion although I'm open to having my mind changed...

For me it's a means to an end as opposed to really enjoying it for the beauty of the language.

J'ai aimé le rendez-vous en français - ordinairement je trouve les rendez-vous comme ça, un peu plan comme la conversation se répète. La langue m'a donné un défi...

Plain is not translated with Plan haha!

Other than that it's pretty good

True that on a general term and from knowing them (being one myself) french don't really like to mingle and have to speak english.

Although no easy generalism, I'm sure there are some that crave for some exotic meat haha aka the brit if you are pretty enough.

Typo, I meant plat

So up until this weekend I have never had any luck in a meetup from Tinder. Friday night was Canada day and after the fireworks I was just climbing into bed when I got a tinder match and started messaging.

The girl was Chilean and has just arrived in Montreal, didn't know anybody so I offered to go out for a drink or come over. She says she'd come over. The conversation was a little confused so I didn't know what to expect seeming as the conversation wasn't very sexual...

At this point I was feeling a little bit suspicious that 2 guys were gonna rock up, beat me up and steal my shit! but 30mins later and she arrives up alone.

She comes in, I kiss both cheeks and lead her for some rum on the balcony. She speaks absolutely no French, very basic English and so semi-drunk me has to use my full language skills to understand Spanglish and communicate back.
I have my hand on her leg or arms and I was starting think she wasn't feeling it (but not pulling away) when all of a sudden she just jumps on my lap and kisses me.

Overall it was a strange but fun experience and I like the efficiency of Tinder but it's also it's very saturated and it took a lot of work just to get this 1 hookup.
So far every sexual experience I have had with Latino girls has been positive so I can see why kowalski lives in Cordoba
