Right now, that's exactly how I feel!
Tuesday afternoon, Dave (the doc) his baby, his dad, me, and my dd went out for lunch and then went to the mall. I'm not really aprehensive about letting my dd be around him due to the fact that he is a family friend and she's spent time with him before. His dad is living with him right now helping him with his baby. Originally they are from a small island close to Venezula (spelling?) and his dad doesn't have a permanent visa permitting him to stay. He's just here right now temporarily to help Dave with the baby until everything is on a better schedule. His dad usually stays home with the baby and doesn't get out much, so I mentioned to Dave that it would be nice if his dad came to lunch with us. So, we just made a little outing with it, and I must say, it was fun.
Anyway...my dd went with her dad tonight and after I got out of class I stopped by Dave's for about an hour and a half. He played the guitar for me and sang some songs and I had a blast! He's so easy to talk to and very laid back. He's very soft spoken and very respectful. From being around him I can tell how he got in "trouble," so to speak, with his ex. He's a very giving person and sometimes people take advantage of people like that, you know. But...we're going to go to dinner tomorrow, maybe...he said that he might cook for me instead. From what his dad says, Dave is an excellent cook! -- I'm taking things in stride though. I'm not going to see him Saturday (even though I want to). I have a christmas party to go to at a friend's house, so I'm going to do that instead. I did invite him to my aunt's christmas eve party though next week. I also invited his dad, who seemed a little excited about it. He lives next door to my aunt, so if his dad got tired he would be able to go home any time he wanted.
I'm just happy with everything right now. We've talked about things and how we want things to progress. We both agree that everything should be taken very slow and one day at a time, and that's very refreshing to me. He's not pushy or controlling, actually, he's the opposite!
I just wanted to tell everyone what a great person he is...very sweet, family oriented, considerate, and soooooo down to earth. I just keep having to tell myself not to go to fast and get all wrapped up in things right now...and I'm doing really good with that....one day at a time....

This is like a breath of fresh air - and I am glad to hear you are happy. Just keep it slow and see how it goes over time. It takes a while to really get to know someone.
Good luck with dinner tonight!
