So, I am taking advantage of the little time I have left on this site to brag a bit.
So, a few weeks ago, I was asked out by two guys in one weekend. I had to bail on my date with the 1st guy due to a sick kid. His behavior since hasn't been quite what I would hope for and so I find myself not willing to make the extra effort to make time for a second date. Oh well, no worries.
Last night I finally got a date with the other guy. It was really great. It wasn't anything big as we kind of planned last minute. We went to see "I Am Legend" and that was all we did. Just the same, he was sweet, funny, respectful...It was a good date. And, in all honesty, I haven't had a good 1st date in a while so it was encouraging. It was a lot of fun really. We have a lot in common. There were no uncomfortable moments. We get a long really well.
When we met up in the parking lot, he gave me a big hug and I totally didn't mind. It was nice.

He was teasing me because I actually was getting ready to pay for my ticket for the movie. He couldn't believe I was going to. He paid and strange enough for me, I didn't mind. It was one of the few times someone has just paid and I haven't felt weird about it. We saw a preview for a movie that comes out this summer and he was telling me that we'd have to go see it...I could take him since I was so thinking I was going to pay for myself this time. lol At the end of the night, we went outside and he put his arm around me. Other than the hug at the start, that was his first real attempt at touching me. I was actually glad he didn't try and get all touchy-feely in the movie. On the way out of the theater, he thanked me for a fun evening. We said we would definatly have to go out again soon and he said he hoped that it wouldn't take as long to get a date again. I promised it wouldn't. He gave me a big hug when we got to his car. We talked for a second and he hugged me again...We were laughing and talking and he told me I can take him out again whenever I want. I told him the next movie would be my treat. He laughed, said, "We'll see...Probably not." But, I thought it was funny. He was very much a gentleman. We went our seperate ways. On the way home, I got a text telling me I looked really nice, he had fun, and he can't wait to go out again. I called my friends (they are a married couple) and the guy told me that he could even hear me smiling. I even woke up smiling! It was a really good 1st date and I haven't had one of those in forever. Yay me!!
