That might help you, vexed.
But the good news is sometimes a fuck up is a gift.
Sometimes a goof turns into a gift.
Here's a quick story from my dating past.
I was once on a first date, a sushi date, with an incredible, attractive, witty, stylish, blonde woman named Laura.
And I was so into Laura.
This was our second date, I believe.
And she was way out of my league at the time, so I thought.
So for me, the stakes were high.
So the sushi date starts well.
I excuse myself to the men's room.
We're sitting in these booths, by the way, the sushi place here in Manhattan.
And I came back from the men's room, and I returned to what I thought was our booth.
I slide in.
Because there's a pretty blonde woman sitting in that booth.
And I say, hey, I'm back, hotness.
Only to look up and see a baffled blonde sitting across from me who is not my date.
I had sat in the wrong booth, catty corner to the actual booth with Laura.
And I just saw, oh, pretty blonde.
I'll sit there.
