NSV...Feeling some new confidence...

So, I went to the Carolina Panthers training camp tonight, and had a great time. Last week when I went, I accidentally (it really was an accident, I swear) got an "ab" shot of my favorite player, Linebacker, Jon Beason (reference my profile pic). So, I got it printed off the other day, and I took it with me tonight hoping to get some autographs (I had four others for him to sign). I really didn't expect him to sign that one, I just wanted to get his reaction. So, I gave him the photos I wanted him to sign, and that one was on top. The first words out of his mouth were, "How did you get this shot?!" :laugh: I told him I was actually trying to get a shot of Head Coach Ron Rivera, who was standing behind him. However, when I got home and pulled it up on the computer, I saw him (Jon) standing to the left with his shirt up while he was adjusting the belt on his pants. I said, "My immediate reaction was, 'Well, HELLO, Mr. Beason! Whatcha got there?!" :bigsmile: Yes, I ACTUALLY TOLD HIM THAT! I couldn't believe the words actually came out of my mouth! He just laughed and said, "That is too funny!" I said, "I thought you might think so. I knew you have a pretty good sense of humor, so I felt comfortable showing it to you." We chitchatted for another few minutes while he signed the rest of my photos (which he really liked, btw). It was awesome! It's been a long time since I've felt confident enough to flirt with a guy that I find SOOOOO HOT! :love: He's almost exactly seven years younger than me, too. LOL I felt a little like a dirty old woman for a minute. Anyway, I'm proud of myself for letting him know I think he's pretty hot stuff, and it felt really nice that he actually seemed to be flattered by it. Here's looking forward to getting MORE of that kind of confidence with the next 50lbs I lose. :drinker:

P.S. Yes, he did autograph it for me.

    Bumping this because I just looked at the recent posts and mine is already off the grid. Really would like to share it with some of the ladies who have recently expressed how difficult it is for them to display confidence when conversing with someone they're attracted to.

    Hahaha! Thanks. I don't REALLY think of myself as old most of the time. Only when I realize that 28 year old guys are nearly a decade younger than me. LOL And I really wasn't thinking "dirty", I was just enjoying the scenery. :wink:
