Interesting situation I've got going on.

First girl - Been on a few dates. The most I've ever had in common with someone, I think. We had similar upbringings, we have similar interests, similar senses of humor, etc. It seems like everything we say to each other is followed by a "yep, me too." She's cute, she's exactly my age, she has high career aspirations. But I don't feel like there's any physical chemistry there. Maybe, but I'm just not feeling it. Neither one of us has really opened the door for more physicality aside from hugs. I don't know if it's just that both of us are waiting for the other one, or that there's no spark, but it seems insane to me considering how well we get along. We can sit and talk in a bar for three hours and it's like thirty minutes. I really do like her a lot. There's just... something missing.

Second girl - Funny story, actually. We met on OK Cupid and we'd messaged back and forth a bit, I'd given her my number a few days prior, but no text or call. I'm at work at like 11:00pm (dicking around on the Internet) and I get a call from a number I don't recognize, so I let it to go to voicemail. Turns out it's her, she's a few minutes away, and her car has been towed. Bummer. So I called her back and said everything would be okay, grabbed a Zipcar (car sharing service, it rules), and basically rescued her. Helped her get her car out of the impound, kept her company for a few hours, etc. We only spent a few hours together, but I feel like there was a major spark there. She was leaning her head on my shoulder, I was petting her hair, etc. When we hugged at the end of the night we ended up hugging like three times, for no real reason.

So... what do you guys think? I'm just curious, mostly. It's throwing me for a loop how the vibe is totally different with these two women, and why.
