My date was scheduled the night after I went out with Mr. Charisma and we had that wild, sensual and sexually satisfying evening. I didn’t get home until 3 and my body was thrumming all night long and well into the morning. I was exhausted and yet I had this drink date set up for this next evening.
Yikes – I seriously considered postponing I was so tired. But i took a little disco nap and decided it wouldn’t be fair to cancel or postpone.
I decided to wear my rust sweater dress with the low cut neckline. I layered the brown merino wool sweater over it to cover my arms – I hate my arms. A scarf, strategically placed covered my cleavage, made oh so much better with the push-up bra. Tights and my beige boots.
I took the bus across town and from there a short walk to our meeting place. While on the bus I was still thinking about the night before and the awesomeness of it and also how I had really done all the wrong things to turn that into a recurring dating relationship. I was the super slut but god it was sorely needed.
Back to this date.
I arrived at the bar and discovered it was a wine bar. Bad deal. I hate wine.
Luckily, he messaged me that he was running a few minutes late, so I messaged back and asked if we could move locations. There was a little bar a few blocks down that I had had drinks in with my friend the night before so I knew it had cocktails.
He was amenable so I walked over while he was on his way. I got there a few minutes before he did. So what else is new.
He arrived on his very large motorcycle and we hugged when we met.
We found a little table and jumped right into talking. He is super funny and we hit it off really fast. I was thinking about how much easier it was to talk with him than with Mr. Charisma. Uh oh. I think I had taken the pressure off myself and really let my personality show through.
We were chatting so intensely we finally realized we should order a drink. He got us drinks and the conversation continued. He kept me laughing and he had some really great stories to tell but he was also interested in what I had to say.
He is the least formal educated of the dates so far but has the most range of world experience and work experience.
My hesitation is purely physical. I have an issue with guys who are not taller than me and he is my same height. It makes me feel huge and amazonian and with all the weight issues I have had in my life that is not how I want to feel. Ever. But.
We eventually decided that the evening was over and we walked out. I called an UberX car and he waited with me continuing our conversation. We hugged goodbye with a quick cheek peck.
I thought he was darling and funny and he really made me feel good so he’s a repeater.
