Epiphany has a DATE. A REAL one. Yep, turns out one of the "texters" just needed a shove and he asked me out for Friday night. We're going to a pretty trendy place (read a lot of younger people hang there) but whatev. It's going to be fun, and I now know that my hormones are still, in fact, working which is a big relief because I thought I was all dried up.
Here's my problem - I don't often do first dates on the weekends because there's no "end time". I'm sure I can maneuver my way home, but when you're meeting at 6p there's a good chance, unless it's a terrible time, he doesn't look at all like his pictures or he talks with his mouth stuffed full of food which sprays across the table every time he opens his mouth or takes a breath, that I'll be with him for 6 hours. I guess, I'm really worried about the stigma - weekend dates mean sex! A gf and I have a new rule (thanks Patty Stinger) "No sex before monogamy". However, put a couple of cocktails in this gal bundled with a good time and I'll be out all night. I didn't say sex, but it's hard for me to walk away from a good time.
Here's the other thing...I can't get into any of my jeans! I'm legging central (and sweats) these days and...well, hoping I can find something that doesn't show the tummy and still makes me look hot. Unfortunately, with small boobs that means drapey and drapey which means not showing some cleav...if I could afford to go shopping I'd hit "The Max". Right now it appears my best assets are my calves which will be covered by leggings and tall stiletto boots. So I guess that means my best assets will be my wrists and ears. Gosh, when did my confidence die? Pathetic! My friends, including you, should all SLAP me!
Enough, E! Stop over thinking it! I know plenty of people who had sex on the first date, or shortly after, and are now happily married. I also know tons of men who don't care whether you have a perfect body or not. I'm a ton of fun, witty, smart and I don't have one large mole for a face!
And this is ALL very ironic because several years ago I decided to put an end to the first date jitters. I told myself, and should remember this, that HE should be nervous whether I will like HIM, not the other way around. Note to self....
So, who is he? He's Steven, 39, 5'10, dark hair, shaved head (if you're going bald, just do it. It's hot!), he's got a fairly decent sense of humor, from what I can tell (anyone who puts Rocket Scientist down as their career or sends me an official "date itinerary"has to be fun!), cute, from what I can tell, and loves, LOVES to flirt and so do I! He may be just what the doctor ordered. Time for a face mask and home mani tonight.
I wonder if I do some squats tonight if it will make a difference...
Here's hoping he doesn't ask broke E to pick up any part of the tab.
Wish me luck! It's been a very long time since I've had a date....
xoxo
