We're all in the mood for a melody

Went on my first date in about 9 months yesterday with Piano Man. Background: 22, film major, plays piano orgasmically, and composes his own music. We were set up by a mutual friend after our first acquaintence, based solely on the superficial reason that we found eachother attractive ( and I know this violates nearly every personal rule I've set forth about dating creative types, but whatev.) .

It went well. Lunch at Auntie Pasta's. I talked too much. Or maybe he talked too little. He met Moira; liked her. Went back to his later. He knows about DHP and is appears to still be attracted. This is a good sign.

But.

There is no..........spark. This is v.v. bad. I should, by all accounts, be fawning all over this man, but I'm completely relaxed about it - borderline indifferent. This isn't a good sign.

So, I seek council: do you think that chemistry can be cultivated with time, or does there have to be an innate spark for a relationship to work?

as someone who fails to cultivate 'spark' in women, I must encourage you to follow through with piano man. We boring people appreciate it.

Whatever you do, don't cash in your chips on the sparkless grounds alone. I side with california will. He's probably just one of us seemingly boring people.

The thing is, he's an incredible person. Ridiculously attractive, talented, very intelligent, witty, and one of the most interesting people I've ever met. But........nothing.

..........yet......

Relax, if said spark doesn't come, you can always bend him to your will. It never hurts to have a noble knight, a religious group, a robot army (same thing?), or a musician to do your bidding.
