Update on date

For those who asked-- Well, I had my first date on Friday night, and it was very nice.  There were no sparks though, but that's okay.  It was just good to know that I could do it and not feel really strange and awkward.  The gentleman was older in behavior than I expected.  I may not be young, but I do feel young and vibrant.  (And not quite ready to act my age, much less older!).   So I'm going to keep looking, but now at least I know I can do it.

hey sally! i'm glad to hear you did it, and that it went okay. you deserve big congratulations for having the courage to give it a try! way to go! and maybe there will be sparks next time! deb  

Hey, the longest mile begins with the first step!  Congrats for stepping out of your comfort zone. !! HUGS  Jeanine

Sally, I am glad you had a good time.  It gets easier each time. Jeanne

Sally I was reading this post and thinking about how strange it would be to date. And then I thought about how even though I have been married for almost 18 years I never really dated as an adult, So I think I can really understand where your coming from. I give you all the credit in the world!!!     Just have fun!  Estelle

You go, Sally!! It's great being able to not have to "settle" because of our weight. When I get out there again, it will be so different than when I was young and felt I HAD to have a man. Right now, I am enjoying noticing the new male attention coming my way and just recognizing how different it is than 6 months ago. Yahoo!!!!!!!!!!!!! -Julie
