Gumby and a possible date...


This is an older sketch from a few sketchbooks ago. Like Gumby I've been feeling a bit intimidated lately when asking out women. Getting back into the dating world isn't something I really wanted to be doing, however, like everyone else I'd like to be with someone. It ain't easy. So if I make a few mistakes and fumble, know that there is someone much more confident behind that nervous smile.
Haven't we all been there one time or another. I can shake off rejection like a dog shakes off water but that doesn't mean it still doesn't hurt a bit.
Anyway, I hope to get past the Gumby stage soon.
Peace, out!

I know that I would be the same way if I ever had to reenter that scene. I wish you the best buddy.

Thanks Jim. I posted that because I got my first dumping in a long, long time. I had met this wonderful woman but she found out that I was doing a graphic novel about Holly's suicide. That ended the relationship. I won't be telling the next woman about it until it's published.
