Well, the long awaited 2nd date...
| Wed, 11-02-2005 - 7:03pm |
is actually happening tonight. He's taking me to a very swanky steak restaurant (his suggestion)...so he gets kudos for that at least ;-).
I'm meeting him in a half hour...I'll let you all know how it goes!

It was a really good date. Excellent food, great atmosphere, good company and conversation. Too bad he's almost certainly moving in a month or two once he gets the child custody issues related to the move ironed out.
We're going out again Sat night but I'm really torn...I like him and want to see him again, but it can't really go anywhere so I'm kind of feeling like, what's the point? Ugh. Why is it always *something*???
In other dating news, I ran out to Target this morning to buy a new hairdryer because mine died yesterday...I hadn't showered yet and didn't have any makeup on, so of course I ran into a guy I went out with once a few years ago...argh. It's actually the guy who emailed me recently...the one who flaked and never scheduled a 2nd date but has continued to contact me every once in a while but never follows through. Anyway, I'm of course not really interested since his follow up is so bad (he actually said to me today something like, "I'm a bad dater: women like attention and I'm not good at that", LOL!!!!), but I hated the fact that I looked so terrible ;-). He claimed he would call...any bets ;-)?

hmm how far is the new guy moving too??
sounds very nice?? maybe date him and you can be friends? I know you did the LD before so that maybe hard if you really begin to like him..
Yes, it does seem like it's always *something*...I hear you loud and clear. That's so disappointing.
Lol, at seeing that guy at Target. Murphy's Law....Why can't we run into people we know when we look our best. It never happens.
P.S. I'd be really torn about Saturday night, too...ugh. How does he feel about the whole thing?
Glad you like the man, but too bad he is moving. The second one, well...many people have advised me against those types here. I myself advise me against them...so I guess I have to advise you the same. If he can't commit to a simple date, what good is it?

I'm sorry to hear he's moving but glad you had a nice date. Have fun Saturday and see how that goes before jumping to any conclusions - maybe talk to him about it.
As far as the guy you ran into - your guess is as good as mine.
I was asking a male friend this week why do guys say "I want to see you again" or "lets get together" and they don't follow through instead of "gee, I think you're great but I'm not feeling that connection"-
why is that so difficult???? even on email and my friend said "it's simple" " It's a guys stupid way of thinking he's keeping an option open."---makes a lot of sense ...
Cheers,
