Well I have to admit I dont feel comfortable saying this because I don't like to toot my own horn but I have to share this with someone! lol

I met this girl a week or so ago through mutual friends and we just said hi and talked for maybe a few minutes but not much. Just kind of introduced to each other basically. Well she was gorgeous....really attractive and I was blown away by her when I first saw her....well I saw one of my friends tonight who introduced us....and they said that after she met me she told a couple of her friends that I was "the most beautiful man" she'd ever seen.

OK I am having a hard time believing this but....it made my day today anyway so I'm just in a good mood and sharing it so....sorry lol

Aww, that's great. It's always nice to get good feedback like that.

So, now do you plan to ask her out?

I have to tell you, my long-term ex and I met that way. Through friends. We all went out dancing one night. I never expected to see him again, but he got my number through one of our mutual friends and didn't hesitate to call -- I think he called about two days later and asked me out. It was hugely flattering, and so nice to have a guy make a confident first move like that. We dated for five years. :)

AJ, enjoying life with C.

It's refreshing to see someone talking about their ex this way.

Getting around personal awkwardness is tough, but I'm pretty convinced that being direct is important.

I learned to be direct when I was set up by "friends." A friend's girlfriend wanted me to drive to another city and stay over to spend a weekend and meet her best friend. I got so caught up in the "she's hot, how can I do anything" that we just sat on the couch the first night. My friend and his girlfriend convinced me to stay over. The next night "M" asked me "what are we doing?" I don't remember the pansy response I made, but I felt like a fool. She wanted me as much as I did her. I just needed to be more direct. We went to bed that evening and continued to do so for 2 years.

We get so caught up in elevating people we forget that everyone is human.
