I had a good date. He was cute, funny, and smart. He owns his own business and home. He is liberal and values involvement with the community. A mutual friend suggested we meet, not because we have anything in common, but because we both date a lot- although as I reflect, that shows we have a lot in common. We met up for a walk around Greenlake and after doing the three mile loop, he suggested we get a drink. Moving on to Round 2 on a first date is always a good sign.
We spent most of our time talking about dating and relationships, what they mean to us and why they have failed in the past. After a pint of beer I let it slip that I had a blog. He reacted well and told me that he liked my outlook on dating. We agreed that we'd like to see each other again, and our first date ended with a hug. I'd say that is a pretty typical conclusion for one of my first dates, but this time I meant it.
Within an hour of our date he texted me and told me he had a good time, so I got a little nervous and confused when the three day mark passed and he didn't contact me again. But playing it cool, on the fourth day, he sent me an email:
"So when is our second date going to be?"
Confident and casual, just how I like my men.
