My guy.
It is funny in a way. I started this blog to journal my adventures in dating.A few very strange people contacted me, and then Jake wrote me.We chatted on line for a while then on the phone. Which led to the eventually first meeting.
I arrived first. He was a little late. I waited in my car thinking about being possibly stood up. Then he drove in and parked right beside me. He was wearing a huge grin. I didn’t know if that was a good sign or a bad one.
I thought perhaps that I was not what he expected at all and that he was grinning at the humour of it. He apologized for being late. He didn’t know the area well and had managed to get himself turned around.
We got out and walked together to the restaurant.
I said something like “so now you get to see me in the flesh?”
He chuckled a little. Confusing me further.
We were given a table right away, and made small talk.
He said my picture was lovely, but that I was way prettier in person than my picture online.
I was shocked and taken aback.
He asked if he was what I expected.
I said he looked nothing like his picture.
His face dropped and he whispered a dreaded “oh oh”
I smiled and said….”No, that is not a bad thing, The picture is nice but your hair is different.”
I smiled and touched his arm too reassure him.
He was so relieved.
We have been seeing each other since.
Neither of us are perfect by far but we seem to understand each other and really enjoy each other.
I think this is going some where. Sometimes it seems to be going so very fast.
I have asked my girlfriends if they want to post about their own experiences with the dating adventure.
So far 2 are considering it. I am hoping they log on and run with it.
