Good Morning!

Just thought I'd pop in while I had a free minute...life has just taken over. Besides having computer issues at work and not being able to get onto ivillage, I've been busy with cub scouts, PTA carnival, and little league. So to take a break from my reality I did something crazy...I posted a personals ad on Craigslist in the DC area (closest location)....don't know if I got more responses from married men or from men who wanted to talk sex!! Anyway, I did get an email from a guy who seems very interesting. We've IM'd a couple of times and texted/talked on the phone several times (since last Saturday). He seems great on paper!! Too good, actually...that's what scares me. We get along great on the phone, he's got a great personality and very funny. Though he lives about an hour away. He didn't have a picture to forward until yesterday. He was sailing with a friend and sent me a picture thru his phone...kinda blurry, alittle far away..not a good one. Describes himself as 6'1", 210lb, salt and pepper hair, athletic, business type...BUT his blurry picture looked alittle overweight and not in shape...okay, I'm being shallow..but he also says he crewed on a sailboat for a year recently (don't you have to be in shape for that!?)..we're supposed to meet either tonight or tomorrow night for dinner. I'm very nervous that I'm going to have one of those "oh no" moments when I see him. That IT'S not going to be there. Do you know what I mean? I know I'm overanalyzing already but I just get this feeling that the chemistry is not going to be there in person. I'll just wait and see...
Oh, I am so sorry to hear about peanut and sunshine's breakups...that sucks!! But you guys are incredibly strong women....

Hi Donna,
It's good to hear from you again! I hope that the meet goes well for you. I know how hard it is to do the meets with a stranger and not get your hopes up.
Thanks for your kind words. The guy I was seeing and I talked tonight and we are going to try it for a little while longer...he said he missed me alot and is going to try to make compromises. So we'll see...

Hi Rosema,
We didn't discuss total details, but are giving it a try. I said more in a new post titled - Trying it again. Sorry Donna for posting this on here.

I believe the correct phrasing is, "He's no Adrian Paul, but...."
Hi Donna,
That's great that the date went so well. I hope things work out for the two of you. Good luck...
