My head is huge this morning! LOL!! My fireman came for dinner last night. He brought a bottle of nice wine, and to my surprise and relief after my last thread, we each only had one small glass.
Because we were busy eating, doing dishes, talking and cuddling. And listening to some really good classic rock. He can always name all the bands.
He really notices things about me and likes all of them. I don't think this is becase I am any more special than any other person or female - but right for him, at least from what I can see.
He noticed how clean my house is and loved that. He couldn't believe I don't have a maid and that I do it all myself. He says it looks brand new. He loved how I was dressed and said I was so hot and yet casual and he likes that a lot - I had on some Abercrombie jeans with holes and a hot tank top - but it is the way I like to dress. He says I am such a nice laid back and positive person - which is true and what I like about him, too. And he adored my cooking!! I made a roasted chicken with gravy, mashed potatoes, roasted asparagus and really fresh salad. It was all low in fat - healthy - and he LOVES that. He just keeps noticing things about me that make me "me" and likes them.
It has only been a week - so I know it is early. But this is how it should start so I am pleased. They need to notice the things about you that make you you and compliment them and like them.
The other big big big big bonus point he got is that he really has time for me. This was such a huge bone of contention with me and my exh and a lot of boyfriends afterwards. I asked him to dinner and he said he had no plans and would LOVE to come and have me cook him dinner! I like his schedule that it is predictable and gives us time and me my space, too.
We talked about where we would like to travel. And that is the same. We talked about family - they are important - but I am not a big family person that could take a whole vacation with my family (unlike exh!). I want to have my couple time and personal time, too.
I got to hear his stories from work. And we cuddled - he is like a huggy bear and we fit together good. One thing we both also like about each other is how affectionate we both are. That is huge to me and I think to him, too.
He left at a very reasonable hour because he wants to ride his bike with me today. I am meeting him in a bit at the park. That will be fun!! I am leaving the racing bike home and taking the mountain bike because that is what he rides.

I'm SOOOO glad this is working out well for you. I know it's early, but everything's moving right along.
The dinner sounds awesome, and I really like that he's appreciatvie of all of your obvious hard work- your home, your health, everything. It is wonderful that he notices and appreciates the things about you that make you so special.
The time thing has always been important for me, too, so I know exactly what you're saying. Don't smother me, but don't ignore me, either.
It seems as if this could get any better! Have fun on your bike ride today!
Moody, still happy dancing for you

Have a great bike ride!
This sounds exactly what you need - a partner who is not only an activities partner, but is that as well. I remember the guy who was interested in training with you, and mainly wanted you to help him train. Fireman enjoys what you enjoy and appreciates you for you, and all the other wonderful qualities you have as well.
I loved Alison's comment about her being away for only four days and you are exclusive. You're right - this is a really unexpected turn of events! But a wonderful one.

He was worried he could not keep up with me or ride for long - but oh yes he can - we rode over an hour at the park and had a blast. Went for coffee afterwards and then I had to come back to work. Have to get stuff done before I go pick up DS. We both talked about how much fun we had last night, too.
I love how he wants to have fun but is careful, too.
OH - and I had mud and sweat all over me. I joked that this is not how I looked when he met me and he laughed and said that is great.
So, now I have a new riding partner!
Did those tires even TOUCH the ground??? ;-)
I'm so happy for you that it's all so GREAT!
