Well I met both men that I was chatting with online and the phone. One was not my interest and I felt bad letting him down, as he seemed to put so much into meeting. He brought me flowers and the next day sent the most flattering email. I emailed him back yesterday that I had also met someone else and had felt a connection and wanted to see where that went.

Now the other guy, he is so handsome! A very nice gentlemen, very talkative, friendly, down to earth. We met Tuesday night for drinks and sat for three hours without one awkward moment. We just really seemed to click. We went out again last night to a movie and drinks, it felt great to be out in the dating world again! Wow can he kiss! He asked if I was free on Sunday to get together. He called this morning and just seems like such a happy guy. Waiting to hear back from him about the specific plans, but I am so looking forward to seeing him and getting to know him more. He has been divorced 2 and a half years and has two teenage daughters that he has 50% of the time. He talks about his girls a lot and even though it was their weekend with their mom he still called them at their curfew time to be sure they were home and say good night.I was happy to hear that he had only introduced them to one woman that he dated, he seems to really want to keep his dating life separate from th e kids until a relationship is developed. I think that is great as I think that is where I went wrong in my last serious relationship. I waited to introduce them until I knew he would be sticking around, but we right away jumped into the family outings and such once they met. It was to quick for my daughter. Hope he does not disappoint me.

Sounds good so far - keep us posted!

I think if you give anyone enough time they will disappoint you somehow - but hopefully this one only gets better with time and any disappointment he throws at you is just a silly little inconvenience - like "honey, I am going to be 5 minutes late." LOL!!
