So I had a great date monday, 4 hours dinner and then closed the place, they locked us in. LOL

Early the next morning he emailed to say how much fun he had and he'd like to get together again, I responded as well. He later called me that night and asked me out for friday.

Yesterday I emailed him just to have a good day and he wrote back and said he was really looking forward to seeing me.

Its very strange, most of the men I've dated (and there has been alot from online) always wait days to call and they seem a little "aloof" if you will. This guy seems so open, and making sure I know that he's interested in ME...

As I said....dare to dream....

Thanks everyone, everybody keeps asking me if I'm excited and quite frankly I'm not, I like him I had a great time but I'm keeping my emotions in check because online dating and dating in general is so unpredictable.

I was corresponding with another guy we seemed to really be clicking and poof he disappeared. I'm just glad that I'm going to see him again this week and that he's being attentive enough without being overbearing and needy. Nice calm interest.

Sounds great - hope it continues for you. I think a lot of us here feel the same way when things do go well like this can't be happening, ha! But, good things come to those who wait.

Cheers,
SP

Well I think the dream is dead. ROFL

Friday we had our second date, he drove to my house, we went out to dinner, then watched a movie at my place. He was really attentive, noticing things and commenting like on how nice I decorated the house, and held my hand during the movie etc. It was sweet.

Then we kissed a bit and then when I walked him to the door we kissed again, he asked me about the weekend and I was going away and said we'd talk again. It was a good 2nd date. I emailed him when I returned home, he read it but didn't respond, I called him last night to see how things were going but got voicemail. So I guess I'm being ghosted on. Oh well...another one bites the dust I guess. LOL

Its so bizarre but back to the drawing board.

Then I have this guy email me last night so I asked him why he didn't have a picture and he gets all bitchy and says "What am I proposing? what is it with everyone and their need for a picture"

Ummm jackass how is it fair that you picked me out from my picture and I'm suppose to just go out with you with nothing. What an huge donkey. I was thinking, if I had no picture I wonder if he'd have emailed me...JERK

Anyhow I'm going on vacation on friday to the Cape and I'll just lay on the beach for a week and read the 5 books I bought for vacation and leave all these troubles behind. LOL

Hi Sally,

I am sorry it didn’t work out with the guy. Although he might come around. Some of them do. You seem to have the right attitude. The vacation will be a nice break for you. I’ve been on match for just one month and I already could use a vacation! LOL. Enjoy it!

hahaha!

Well you know I've been doing OLD on and off for 5 years, nothing surprises me anymore. I did call him late last night so he still has opportunity to redeem himself I suppose, but I'm thinking that's doubtful.

My friend thinks I'm being too cynical, I said why are you so confident and I'm not, she said "Because your used to dating jerky hockey jocks!" LOL I thought that was hysterical.
