Online poker is still going well enough for now to keep supporting myself while I study.
Anyway, Lyon has blown me away as a city, and the women are stunning. I prefer skinny brunettes, of which there seems to be an endless supply. It would be less interesting to those who prefer blondes or curvier women. I found an awesome yoga studio nearby and am planning to go to classes 5-6 times a week, so I will devote less time to grinding dating apps/sites and just rely on yoga or my current social network to meet women. Thanks for the pub recommendation! It's now starred on Google Maps.
Nice. You might want to take one of your 3rd/4th dates to Annecy for a day or even overnight trip. There's a nice lake, the Alps, and the town has a laid back/cool/walkable vibe. Any of the chics who like a picnic date will definitely dig Annecy. (disclaimer: I went in the summer- not sure how the weather is in Fall.)
What's your basic approach for getting dates from yoga? I go to a studio a few times a week but am slightly hesitant about asking out other students. Maybe I just need to man up but I'm worried about things being awkward/slightly awkward if it doesn't work out.
