We ended up having dinner, then didn't make it out....neither of us wanted to with wind chills at negative 10 degrees???. He was so comfortable here, loved my house, seemed to not notice D's artwork, but loved seeing pictures of her and my family. He went outside during the arctic winds and got wood for the stove, kept it stoked and very, very warm! :)
So nice to have this over (having him over), and I did/do feel pride in being a single mom--he thinks it's great. He was divorced 4-5 yrs ago and really misses being married. I told him that it's not a goal of mine, but I'm not adverse to it--more occuring naturally as a by-product of a great relationship. I'll be interested to see what happens, if anything, about bringing up exclusivity and our OLD sites..I'm in no rush to stop meeting men, though I'm not sure I'll want to be intimate w/anyone else.
The two things I didn't like is that he didn't bring a bottle of wine (but he did apologize) and he wasn't very hungry! I made a lot of delicious food and I love to watch men eat my cooking. So, when he apologized about the wine, I said he could make it up next time by bringing a really good bottle, and asked him to have a really small lunch next time.
Just trying to be honest here!

It is good that you enjoyed your evening with him and a boost to your self esteem.
The only thing I can say about what you didn't like is that you are indeed smart. I wonder if he was out having dinner or happy hour with someone else before he came and didn't have time for the wine? You aren't exclusive yet so that is entirely possible and okay - and probably considering it is OLD.
But time will tell, as it always does.
Keep us posted!
