My date last night was
great.
He showed up at our
meeting place 45 minutes early, which of course took me out of my pre-date zen
routine (eating a light dinner, primping, telling myself I’m awesome, etc.) and
into “AHHH I’ve gotta go mode”. So that
was a little annoying. But I shrugged
it off. He probably didn’t know how
long it would take him and I decided I wasn’t going to rush myself just because
he was early.
So I got there promptly at
our agreed upon time. He was already
sitting in the booth I had planned on us sitting at, which was a nice surprise
(it’s farthest away from the door and would be less cold than any other
seat). He was also a little better
looking than his pictures had been online, which was also a nice reversal from
the way these things usually go.
And he’d ordered me my
beer of choice so it was nice that he had been paying attention to our
conversations - I’d actually forgotten telling him until I saw what he was
drinking and I remembered teasing him about his favorite beer.
The conversation flowed
pretty smoothly and we laughed a lot.
He bought all of my drinks and put money in the jukebox and we took
turns picking songs. It was very
pleasant. He was polite and
gentlemanly, but not in that annoying too-nice kind of way. We had a nice kiss at the end of the date
and an agreement to see each other again.
But today… well… I’m not
sure if I have enough faith in romance to give a (barely) long-distance
relationship a try. Hell, I couldn't even decide if I should post about this today!
I guess we’ll see!
Kissyfaces,

Morning! I'm glad the date went well! Even if you are a little on the skeptical side, I'm sure it was nice to just have a good night out with someone whose company you enjoyed as a romantic possibility. :)
ReplyDeleteYou're right. And I decided to go for it again. Especially since he's willing to come to my town again. We'll see what happens next week after our next date - maybe I'll feel butterflies or something and decide to give it a shot for real.
DeleteYay, I'm glad the date was fun! I agree with Bluemoon, it feels refreshing to have a nice night out with good guy, even if you're on the fence.
