New to the Game.....

Hi, I've been divorced for 8 years. My son was 2 at the time so I've been taking my time to spend with him. Also suffered through several deaths in my family and have just felt numb.


I've started feeling almost normal the last couple of years and even more so this year. I think I'm ready to get back in the dating game. It is an overwhelming thought.


However, there is this guy at work. We have met and he works in another department. I see him when there are computer problems. Through a mutual friend :) he found out I've been curious for a while now. Here's how it's went and please feel free to give me feedback!!!


We started emailing, and have been for about a month. We've been speaking on the phone for about 2 weeks. It feels slow to me. We were suppose to go out last weekend, but his Dad, who he doesn't get to see that much came over. Okay, I can live with that. I did make it clear, that this one time was a free pass. Next time be prepared to committ. etc. So for the last 2 weeks it's been phone calls and emails at work. He doesn't live far away, for gods sake we work in the same building and I don't see him that often. I don't know if I should mention he has an IQ through the roof, so does that mean common sense is lacking? hehe. I don't know, I'm just frustrated, he has made it clear that he likes me, but why don't we get to go out?


Love this board by the way, Thanks in advance:)
