Great first date but poss. reg flags....
| Thu, 02-03-2005 - 1:39pm |
well my first (in awhile) date went well last night. Had a very nice time, great conversation, went to three restaurants until we found the one we really wanted (funny story)....anyway, the red flag I'm worried about is I'm his first date from match.com. I'm afraid he's going to get the "kid in a candy store" bug and I'll be tossed aside. I guess time will only tell. He did say we'd get together again soon. I just have to remember the no-expectation rule!!

Sounds like you really don't think that this is going to work out. I remember my first OLD meeting. On the date he told me that while he was my first - I was going to be his last. After a year online he was calling it quits. .
You never know what will happen - but aren't you glad that you have the foresight to anticipate what could happen and thus keep yourself grounded in reality.....and know that if it doesn't work, that it's not all about you?
Hi Donna,
I am wary of the ones that want me to 'critique' their profile, so they can make it better, and, my guess is, attract more women. Translation: "You are not the only candy he is sampling!". They all get that KISS, and the ego seems to feed it. Like you, I Know there are good ones out there...just...Where?
Also, mention of the ex and they still communicate...looks like he might be looking for a 'transitional girl'; someone to get him Over someone who dumped him..and then, Ding! 'Next!--he will move on. Both of these are always things to think about--and While you are thinking, go back to Match and wink at a few More men!
Like it is said often here--go, have fun, expect nothing. Takes a while to get to that, I still get my feelings under the tracks of the Love Train too...but have learned to rescue them and move on; it is best. Hey, this week alone, I thought cute/shy lawyer enjoyed our second date a lot too, but looks like he is vaporizing on me. Oh well. Already have 'blonde, professional 6 plus footer'in the starting blocks! Let's get ready to rummmmble!
"God bless those who expect Nothing, for they shall Not be disappointed"
Roll on, little rock!
Truly,
Cupcake
