OT Trying to take it slow
I have been talking to a guy I met online since last Thursday and the last couple of days we have been texting during the day (while he is at work) and then talking when he gets home and this morning we talked before he had to go to work. When I looked at my phone after coffee I noticed that he had texted me a message "Good Morning Sunshine :)" is what it said, it made me smile! Our conversations have also progressed from the small talk general getting to know you info to a little deeper. One big thing that really has me thinking a bit is that he is Muslim. I am not saying this totally rules him out, but it just sort of makes me think a bit. I am willing to get to know him more and see how things go on Tuesday. I am really trying hard to not just jump head first into this, but this is so new to me and he is so sweet that it is taking a bit more than I expected to slowly ease into things, but I will keep myself safe and not be impulsive. Oh, and yes I will be giving an update on the date Tuesday night even if just to say all went okay and then may have to wait until Wednesday to give a full update.

But isn't it nice... having someone pay attention? That is one of the things I have found about that site... it was definately a confidance builder.
Can't wait for the update.
I am not short... I am fun sized!!
Yes, I agree getting all of those "winks" was definitely an ego booster. I almost found myself telling him about my ex, but thought the better of it and opted to not go down that road yet. It is really hard to not want to just melt in his arms because he is paying attention to amaking me feel so special. I am really hoping Tuesday goes well and that we will be able to get to know one another more.

You are a pretty gal and I think you will have a hundred of these types of experiences to come.... if I can give any advice.. it's something that someone told me to do because I, too, get really excited really soon....
I was told to really think about whether I liked him or not. I know that sounds like common sense... but sometimes we get so wrapped up in wondering if he likes up or how to look good/please the new guy... we totally forget to ask, "But how does he make me feel? Do I even like him?"
That was a new thing for me to think about.... just thought I'd share.
Congrats!!!
Thank you Elena, that is very good advice, and suprisingly enough I have been asking myself that question a lot. One thing I have learned is that if I am not happy and am ust pleasing someone else it is a waste of my time and I need to leave and find soemthing/someone that makes me happy too, there needs to be a balance in relationships not just give, give , give!

Nicole, I'm anxious to hear how it goes too! You have one good head on your shoulders, I know you'll be able to figure out your feelings for him after your date and decide if it's worth pursuing! And GOOD FOR YOU! This ISN'T about how a guy feels about you, it's about how you feel about EACH OTHER!!! It's a two way street now, baby!
Imperfect does not = unsuccessful
