nice dates

After the mess with the Latin Lover, I have two very successful dates this week, with two different guys, go figure! Both are very nice men, have kids, divorced a sufficient amount of time, both have decent jobs.

So, instead of being in panic mode, I am enjoying this for a while. First guy, date on Saturday, he was so nice, even called the next day, and I am seeing him tomorrow night. Other guy, wicked funny, sends me really funny texts at work just to crack me up, went out with him tonight, he already asked me to dinner next week. I am going to see both guys for a while (if that happens) because, for a change, I want to be more in control of how I get into relationships.

Both dates I went into it not caring one bit what they thought of me, as I met both on-line and I was ready to stop doing on-line for a while and just sit back and try to learn to be happy with myself. Just happened that both guys e-mailed right before I quit.

So I have seen this happen before with you ladies, and to the rest of you who are feeling sad...it seems to be true...when you don't "care" anymore, you seem to attract better people.

I will most certainly send one your way if necessary. It's not that long a drive from here to RI!

OK, tonight second date with Stock Trader/Philanthropist (how the heck to I shorten that one?). He is very nice, dry sense of humor, decent conversation. He's also a Buddhist and spent a lot of time talking about that, which is interesting to me...to a point. I like him, not huge sparks flying, but it's not bad, either. A few kisses before saying goodbye and he said he's free all weekend, let's get together.

"Wicked funny guy" (all those years living in RI, I adopted that word), sent me hilarious texts throughout the day, and called me twice.

I feel so popular...and a little nervous. I have never been in this position before of dating two people. It's weird, but it feels like cheating, even though I barely know either guy and have only been on one or two dates with either one!

There is so much going on in my own life right now, that I have no time to really think about these guys when I am not talking directly to them or seeing them. Maybe that's the secret?

Anybody else been in this position and felt this way? At least now I know how the popular girls felt in high school :-).
