Road Trip!

When you've been on CityHookups.com for a number of years, you start to find a groove about what works. For a lot of people, especially those that are new (and impatient), they happen upon the strategies that don't work, and they end up rather frustrated.

That was how it was for me at first, too... and the thing that I found that mostly didn't work was meeting people who were very local to me. What that means is, someone that is a five or ten minute drive... someone here in Anchorage. I thought that was strange at the time, but I know why it doesn't work for me: it doesn't work because that favors two types of interactions over others... the booty call and the long-term relationship... neither of which is really the kind of thing I am looking for.

By far, my best experiences have been ones where the person I am meeting is some distance away. I think the reason that those work is because it forces you to dedicate time to that person and put away the distractions for a while.

I have met some wonderful people here in Alaska that were an hour or two (or even more) away. When we would get together, we would usually spend a weekend... or at least, a full day. The "come over after dinner and be home in time for Letterman" think was never part of the equation... and for that I am thankful.

So yesterday I was talking to a friend of mine, and I had a bit of inspiration:

The Blind Date Road Trip.

You decide to meet someone, and then you take off in a car and just spend a couple days exploring. Find cool things to do, interesting places to stay... wild, outdoor places to have sex. No particular itinerary in mind... just drive. Be spontaneous.

I better write that idea down.

 I never knew it had a name, but I find that the LD thing is great in some instances, and kind of disheartening in others. But I have on numerous occassions road tripped to meet a potential playmate. And dare say I will again

 Given our distance, we'd have one hell of a time then!
