My Date Night Recap :)

Okay, so last night was the "Real" date, I guess I passed the "test" on Sunday night...lol... (((I AM JUST JOKING))))) So, I drove to his town and found his house, which is FANTASTIC, should I care that it is? Is that shallow? It's one of the new houses in a subdivision I looked at last year, when I was house hunting, but realized QUICKLY that subdivision was soooo OUTTA my price Range...LOL....about 4 times out...LOL And, to his credit, he has even landscaped, with petunias and shrubs, and those great lantern lights on poles.... Sooo, anyway....I go inside and he asks if I want a drink, but to MY HORROR, I realize he is a PEPSI House, so I whip out my Coke Zero outta my purse, and ask for a glass of ice. We sat and talked and watch the news, then Entertainment tonight, and I "Wooed" him with my brain full of useless celebrity knowledge, and other worthless trivia....then we took our drinks out onto the patio and sat on a park bench and talked some more, really for about 2 hours.... Sweet right? So, then we went to dinner and that was nice too.....we talked and he ate, and I poked around in my salad.... I barely ate any of it, but didn't know if it was a bad move to ask for a "To Go" box, so I didn't....which bothers me, because I am NOW quite hungry....LOL We went back to his house and I sat in this oversized chair and he asked if he could sit with me, we watched the Sopranos ((which he has no****ched before))) and I used to LOVE to watch in on HBO, but would have never admitted to watching.... LOL Again, impressing him because I could tell him who was "About to get whacked" LOL He was very gentlemanly, and is a great kisser. He actually got to taste the edible Marshmallow glitter dust...NOT in any crude or un-mentionable spots.... Sorry, I am a "lame-o".... He asked if he could see me again, when I went to leave.... My mom asked me this morning what I thought, but with the old bad luck I had with men, I told her to ask me in a year. She said, "NO! I am going to ask you every time you see this guy!" My sweet mother....she called around 10:00 p.m. to check on me, but I'd left my cell in my purse in the car, so when I was leaving his town I talked to her until I stopped for a cup of coffee to keep me awake.... My life is absolutely lovely right now. S

You funny gal.......I'm glad that you had such a nice time with him. Reading your post....especially your last sentence......gives me hope for the future. I am just starting the pre-surgery liquid diet today.......ugh......I know that this is going to be difficult for me. So, keep telling us your good news......let me know that there is a re-newed life to come. Take care, Beca

You ladies are always so sweet to me. Beca, I do want you to know that after utter heartbreak over 12 years ago, I have not really had any luck or desire to date one man. I met one guy right after my surgery, and he was the "typical frog INSTEAD of a prince" Blek.. Your whole life is about to change, enjoy the ride....this WLS was the best thing that has happened to me, let me tell you! Sherr

lol I'm so excitied I feel like I went on the date---sounds like you had a blast---:D:D:D That's awesome!!! Congrats hope for an even better second date :D:D:D

Angie, Thank you honey...you made me laugh.... I wrote this same exact post on a blog I write and had an older man tell me I was "superficial and a gold digger".... Hello, Ya old Fart, I was ONLY trying to be funny... LOL Thank you again...for "getting me" Sherr

You go girl, I am glad you had a great....vesta

Thank you Ms. V.... Hugs & Kisses S

Sounds like a very nice guy, I smiled the whole time reading your post. I was doing yard work last night and thought of you and hoped you were having a great time. You go girl!!!! Tara

Sherr, Glad you had a great time. I have a second-time-around marriage and my DH is the best thing that ever happened to me - EVER. So there are princes out there. Noticing that he has a nice house and takes care of it is not shallow, it's another piece of the puzzle that is his personality. It shows responsibility and the ability to take care of his life!!! Good things in anyone. I had a list a mile long of what I was looking for in a man. My main one was that he needed to know what he wanted from life and from me and be able to articulate it. I had had enough of trying to guess what someone wanted from me and then him being mad if I couldn't figure out the clues. No way, no more. My constant advice regarding new relationships is "take it slow". My DH and I "dated" and only "dated" for over two years before we got married. I knew him and his kids, who were all adults, well before we got married. I'm not saying I have the perfect husband or marriage, but he's great and our marriage is really wonderful. We are very mature adults and he allows me freedom to be me. It is one of the best things about him - along with his intellect and kindness. Quite honestly, I fell in love with his mind before anything else!!! That he's a cutie didn't hurt!!! Hugs and best wishes for fun and perhaps more. Lana

YOU GOOO GIRL!! lol,I hope he's the one for you,sounds like a nice fella.By the way I am also a Sopranos fan myself.Well take care Sher and goodluck on the new guy and hope he dont hurt you like the others have,you seemed to be a nice women and deserve a nice manGodbless hun.
