And, I am actually nervous........but that is a good thing because it means there is also excitement. We have great conversations through email and texting and on the phone, but and here is the thing........TOTALLY not my "usual" type, which is ok....need to branch out but hoping I will still be attracted to him. I was attracted to his pic, but you just never know.

The last time I was this ambivalent, I ended up dating the guy for almost 8 mos!!!

    I like that you are branching out beyond your "usual" type, you never know where it will lead. Just have fun!

    Thanks everyone....I will update tomorrow on how it goes!

    I do think it will be short date.........I had to help a friend who had surgery today--had to get her 3 year old up and ready for school-which would not have been a big deal, but I had to be dressed and at her house at 5, and the lovely charming child woke up at 5:32 telling me that it was "light out, so she can get up"............he will definitely have to keep me entertained to keep me awake :)

    It was great!!! We met at a bar for dinner, so had dinner and talked ..... we were there about 4 hours :)

    When leaving, he asked if I wanted to get together on Sunday (YES!!) and then he leaned in and gave me a big hug. Little dissapointed no kiss and did think maybe he was unsure. Then when leaving, I got a text that he said text me when you get home so I know you made it safely. So I texted when I got home, and he responded with

    "I have a question!! If I like the person on a first date, why is it so awkward to know if you should try and kiss them or not?"

    So that answered my question, at least he wanted to kiss me..... :)

    I am looking forward to seeing him again.

    Unfortunately, I have a probable date with someone else on Friday that was a set up from a friend so can't really get out of it. And, she told me last night...after telling her that I had great time, her response was " I am happy for you but you MUST go out with our pick!!" In case y ou can't tell.....NOT good at "dating" more than one guy.......

    Anyway, GREAT DATE!!

    I rarely kiss on the first date, the ones that I have started off very hot and heavy but fizzled out rather quickly. I kind of like when there is a little bit of a build up. Plus it's usually awkward, especially if you're in a semi public place.

    Yeah, the bar/restaurant we were at..we both parked right in front and there were people milling outside so would defintely have been awkward!

    Yay!!! I am so glad you had a good time. Hopefully the Friday date will be a dud so you don't have to worry. ;)
