Of course that probably means that he'll ghost ;-)...but it was really nice to meet someone who seemed to be pretty much who he said he was in his profile, and have a nice conversation over a cup of coffee. I was particularly worried that he'd lied about his height (he said 5'7" on his profile which is my height so I was worried he would be shorter), but he was really 5'7"...yea! He's smart and cute, and we seem to have a lot in common. Oh, and he even paid for my coffee!! He said he definitely wanted to get together again, but since I'm out of town next weekend we didn't set a specific time to do so. We shall see, but after having what feels like a run of bad luck lately (lots of ghosts and just feeling indifferent about the whole dating process), it was nice to have a good one.

The one negative is that he's not sure he's going to stay in Seattle forever (he moved up here about a year ago from SF and is having a bit of trouble adjusting)...but I guess we'll cross that bridge when we come to it...

Only until last Saturday (a week ago), then he had a friend in town for the weekend last weekend. So he could have called or emailed anytime this week...but it took me emailing him to get a call from him. So that's why I'm a little skeptical...but I'm taking a wait and see attitude.

Yeah, I can completely understand your skepticism... I guess as "they" say, time will tell. Let us know how it goes.

I was wondering what had happened to you too. I was looking for your update on this guy. I'm glad you heard from him. I think you have the right attitude. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. Keep us updated.

The last update I posted was actually from just a few days ago. He called last night as he promised (yea!), and we have tentative plans to get together Wed evening after work (tentative because I'm in the middle of a deal that's supposed to close any day now so I may have to reschedule). Hopefully work will cooperate and we can have our 2nd date ;-).
