Our first date is good

Okay girls. I just got back from my first date with MrAlumni (MA). He had sent me a book that he was telling me about and we had a date set for next weekend. But I just think that although we had known each other in HS we should meet face to face sooner rather than later. We were really talking a LOT on the phone and connecting in a way that has never really happened for us before. It is because we grew up the same and have a lot of the same values and philosophies and want the same things with our lives. I mean, if I could send an order to the heavens above this one came back even better with all of the boxes checked off.

So, we decided to meet on the beach for a glass of wine. I got there and he came downstairs from the bar to meet me. And we went up and had a great view of the beach and talked while the sun was setting. Although this is 27 years after HS, we haven't changed that much. He got a table for us for dinner and we shared Paella and a salad.

Then we went for a long walk on the beach and talked and held hands and then he kissed me. Since it is a school night we didn't stay too long - we left at 9P. He took me to his car and gave me flowers and then walked me to my car.

And then when we got home we talked a bit more on the phone.

So, next Saturday is our date and we are going to go out to dinner and to listen to live music. He says he is really looking forward to learning more about me and I feel the same way.

He says that he always loved my smile in school but now he really likes the person I have become and is happy to find someone who has it together and is active and positive and strong. He loves that I have a son.

AND he is running a lot so he can keep up with me - although he was a really fast cross country runner and is much faster already.

This brought tears to my eyes.


Judy, this sounds fabulous. I have never heard you let yourself go like this before. I can't wait to hear how this tale unfolds. I am soooo happy for you - you so deserve something like this.


Huge hugs,


Clem xx

He is a really good kisser - but we were both also on good behavior that we didn't go too wild. :-)
