Well I went out on my date last night and it was amazing! He's so nice, the conversation just flowed and there was chemistry! He is adorable!!! He reminds me of Toby Keith - tall, sweet, with that bad boy look. We have a lot in common, he's very family orientated and loves the outdoors. When I talked to my friend she goes, "Ann, I haven't heard you this giddy since college!" Who knew you could feel this way in your 40's! The 40's ARE the new 20's ladies!!!! EMBRACE IT!! We are going out again Friday and I'm really looking forward to it.
My matchmaker is pleased. We both had to check in with her today after our date like two teenage kids checking in with the parents. She asked how it went and I told her how amazing I thought he was. Apparently he told her he knew when I walked up it was going to be a great date. Upon meeting he hugged me hello! It was so cute since he's 6ft 4in and I'm 5ft 2in!!! It melted me on the spot. Now I can't get all caught up just yet since that seems to my M.O. I need to take a step back and not jump in with both feet running. My matchmaker reminded me of this and I told her I would take it down a notch. That was easier said than done when he called me tonight to set up Friday's date. I could listen to that man talk all night but I cut the conversation off. Then I thought I may have hung up on him since I heard his voice as I clicked the end button! UGH Typical me! So I felt bad and texted him "I'm sorry if I hung up on you. Looking forward to friday." Not sure if that was appropriate but hey I didn't want to call him back and talk too much on the phone. My matchmaker says keep phone calls to a minimum but I don't think she meant hang up on him! LOL
Good God this dating thing is HARD!!! It's such bullshit that as an adult you think there are no rules, do what you think is right but how do you know what is right!? Obviously what I have done in the past hasn't worked so I'm sticking with my matchmakers advice. I'm sticking to taking it down a notch. So tonight I'm going to watch the Sabres game, have a little Bailey's on the rocks (Diane you got me hooked on that!) and then soak in my hot tub. I'm going to relax - Lord knows I need to at this point!!!! I'm not going to over think this since that's what women tend to do.
How is it that men and women are so different? Women analyze EVERYTHING - men don't, women tend to listen to their heart - men don't always know they have one! But I think this guy does have a heart and that's why I like him. He walked me to my car, gave me another bear hug and kiss on the cheek, saying he had a wonderful time. Again it melted me - oh and there was just something in his big blue eyes that grabbed me. OK enough - I'm taking it down a notch.
BUT I am excited for Friday!
