First date off the dating site and I have to say that it was a breath of fresh air.
It was simple, I was going to be in the area because of PT and he was working. He suggested that we just meet for a few minutes since it would be towards the tale end of his lunch (I didn't know this until later). But me being me, I shared that it would be nice if he could take a late lunch and he did!
He told me to call when I was approaching the exit but I called after I got off which meant that I would beat him there. Lol Didn't mean to but it messed him up a bit. However, I was able to get us a comfortable booth and arrange the cutlery properly before his arrival. The waitress wasn't too pleased with me after that but umm do you're job. Besides, I didn't make a fuss about it. He called and I read off the menu so that I could place his order and I did.
Then he walked in. I have to admit that I was nervous. Wasn't sure what to expect when he told me his weight. I knew he was tall, but I could only see his head when he first walked it. When he rounded the corner and walked down the aisle, his new name was born. I just wanted to rush him and squeeze him to death. My personal Teddy Bear! Look at that, I'm already claiming him! LOL
Ok, we sat and within a few seconds we were laughing up a storm! The food came and we had to take turns talking so the other could eat. Then I realized that I had surpassed him because I was almost done and he was still working. (Mental note: Do not go on a date hungry!!!)
He is soo interesting. He shared a dark time in his life with rays of sunshine throughout the story. He gave me a glimse into his life without sharing every single event. It was rich, real and raw. It was sad but not depressing. He's such a positive person. He's the person that I need right now in my life. No, I'm not saying he's the one. But the friendship is there and strong that I am grateful that I didn't judge a book by its cover.
I am looking forward to our future endeavors!
