I went on a date this weekend. And surprisingly, I really liked the guy. I still liked him when we said good bye too. A friend asked me last night if he was going to call me. Well, to be honest, he never said – and I never asked.
Prepare yourself for my rambling thoughts!
Part of me really wants to let myself get excited, to believe that I might’ve found a guy who could be not only what I want, but what I need. By this I mean, he doesn’t live in the city. People who don’t know me very well often think I’m nuts when I say my perfect man would be a long – but not too long – distance relationship. I want a boyfriend. Someone who is more than lover, but nothing to majorly serious. If things got serious – after a time – then fine, but I know myself, and I know my own obsessive persoinality that sometimes gets me in trouble. By that I mean, I meet a guy, I like him I feel a connection, he usually feels it too, we get together, we spend a weekend together, or see eachother three times in one week, and by the end of that third time I’m not interested anymore. It’s like overdosing, or too much too soon. The worst thing is, when I get that suffocated feeling, he wants more. I’ve been told I’m worse than a man cuz I want to close up shop and run when aguy gets too close. But I really think it’s just because it happens too fast. I want a man who is strong enough to make me take it slow. Someone who makes it clear he’s interested, thathe wants me, but one who won’tlet me run things. LOL
Does any of this make sense?
So, this guy I had a date with on the weekend. He lives out of town, so seeing him too much too fast would be pretty damn hard…and that appeals to me. That’s not all that appeals to me though.
He’s older than me. And experienced. He reacted to my writing in the perfect way…interested and intrigued and turned on, but not sleazy at all. He was charming. He opened the door for me, he held my hand while we walked. He made me laugh and he made me wet with just a look.
Now that I’ve said all of this, I’ve probably jinxed things, and I’ll probably never hear from/ see him again. However, I’d almost be okay with that too, because he gave me something I’ve never had before – A real date, and hope that I just might find what I am looking for.
Sasha, that sounds wonderful. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that it works out.
WoW Sasha sounds like you had a great time. He sounds charming hun. I have my fingers cross for you and hope that everything works out for you. Yes it does make sense what you have said in the beginning us ladies just know what we want that’s all nothing wrong with that. Well atleast I don’t think it is. There was times where I was in that situation also where the guy would fall in love to fast with me then I am not falling inlove back with him the way he would want me to. So I end up doing the same thing running away. I like things slow get to know eachother more.
See the guy I am with now we have talked online for about 3 years. We finally met after 3 yrs. We was not planning to get together at all we wanted to be friends but as we got to know eachother more & more things had changed. He went on his vacation and when he came back he called me. I was so shocked he called me I was the 1st person he called :jump: So we met the next day after that and well things went well. So we went on a few dates and well now we are engaged. We got engaged on Dec. 24th 2002. We have been together for 5 yrs going on 6 yrs on March 28th π
Ok well that is my story also. Btw incase anyone wants to know wedding date Hune 12th 2008 π

Ah, sweetie. I’m so glad you had fun. I know you’ve always talked about a “real date”. Loved the gentlemanly manners too. I hope he does call. He sounds like a second date for sure.
Now that I’ve said all of this, I’ve probably jinxed things, and I’ll probably never hear from/ see him again.
Stop that!
Must think positive.
He sounds wonderful. π
I’m so glad you had a good time with this guy, and I’ve got everything crossed he’ll be in touch soon!
He sounds fabulous, Sasha…and now he’s likely reading your blog and knows exactly what YOU want in a relationship!
Go For It!
callie :great:
Or he’s reading this and thinking, “This chic is crazy!” LOL
I didn’t say anyhting in the post I never said to him. Except I think maybe he doesn’t know how much I did enjoy the night. π
yeah babe! Just remember you deserve EVERYTHING you want. Never settle for second best when you deserve first.
Sasha, while I’m reading your post, I’m thinking he might be a bit nervous of screwing up the connection as well.
It can’t be easy for either of you because you have to put yourself out there and that’s gutsy and nobody wants to get hurt.
But he does need to take control and you are pretty set in your ways so he is going to have to be damn sure of himself.
I do feel really excited for you as he seems to have all the right ingredients for a successful relationship no matter how slow or fast it goes. You can’t control LOVE!!
I have a great feeling! :love:
Sounds Like a good guy. Any guy with manners is okay wih me.. :great: so few and far between. A real date that turned you on? Sounds like he might be a keeper..
It sounds like a fantastic date π
Hi Sasha,
Sounds like a great guy and a good time. I’m glad for you, hope it works out
