Date #3 with Fireman

Okay. My last entry was that I had 2 dates in one day (yesterday) with Fireman. I had so so so much fun with him. But as you know from the entry there I saw him on match later on today. My heart sank but I also said that doesn't mean anything at this point and it is early - maybe he will call for the weekend. I mean, I was on match, too, mostly to delete the winks that appeared in my email and to see if he was there - LOL!!

I decided to send a note saying thank you and that I thought he was fun and the music was great. Stay in the game and reassure that I had a good time and appreciated everything.

Okay- so he calls when I am blabbing my OLD experience to an old friend who used to do OLD at the same time as me a few years back. So it goes to voice mail and then I get his message and call him back.

He told me about his day and then we talked about our evening. I said he is fun - because he is - he is cute how he dances in his seat (but I didn't say that!)! And the concert was great because the music was so good and you could still hear each other talk to make comments and stuff. He was thrilled that I am into live music and I told him of the places I had been.

He mentioned there is a neat place near my house that his friends mentioned for live music. And then asked if I want to go on Friday. Of course I do! So now we have another date.

He said he will call me from work tomorrow and that I could stop by the fire station if I like and even bring DS to show him the trucks. WOW! (But you know we will wait a bit on that - as we have all discussed here before about waiting to introduce the kids.)

He also asked me about my day and I explained that I had a good one. Made sure I mentioned that I cooked a good dinner and that DS and I walked the dogs.

And so my dear readers and fellow board members, I am happy. But scared, too. My poor heart doesn't want anymore rollercoasters. Although I know that every relationship is a risk and it is better to take a risk than none at all. And I have healed pretty well since all of my previous escapades. LOL!!

WOW! That is fantastic! He sounds like a genuinely good guy. Know what you mean about introducing the children later. :) Hopefully this will keep going on a good track and eventually your son WILL be able to see the fire trucks! He will love that!

This is so exciting! I'm so happy for you. :) Let us know how Friday night goes!

Smiling ear to ear for you, Judy. Breath.....I know it's hard, I don't know how I lasted 5 whole months keeping my heart on a leash with M, he still makes me squirmy and here we are 10 months later, me still trying to move as slow as a tortoise.
So remember, just another guy who can go poof and disappear tomorrow. Enjoy the ride, if it develops into more we all will be celebrating.
