I’ve been emailed a woman I met on an online dating site for a few weeks now. We spoke on the phone over the weekend and it was great. Normally I have problems talking to someone I’ve just met but it felt natural and easy to talk to her.
She knows about my recent surgery and is supportive so that’s a plus.
After talking she wanted to meet and I felt the same way. Since she is off from work on Friday we are going to meet Thursday night.
I’m hopeful that at the least a friendship will come out of this and if there is something more than that I’m going to be very happy. However I will take things as they come and not rush anything.
I had been debating bringing her a flower. My friends who know me were almost unanimous in saying yes. The Poll here on the dope mostly said no
So I went with my gut (which is smaller) and my heart and did a purple rose.
I did it for the following reasons
We’ve had two conversions go over three hours
We’ve texted for four days for over three hours
I knew she was meeting at the comedy club and would have a car near by
So she met me outside the comedy club. We hugged and chatted some more. Both of us were comfortable with each other. Then we went inside and I used the free passes that I had then I escorted her to my table where there was a single purple rose. I had purchased the rose a half hour earlier and had one of the wait-staff put the rose at my table (I have the same table every time I go)
She did appreciate the flower. She did say I didn’t need to but it was a nice thought. When we were leaving the club another patron commented and she said yes he is a keeper.
We went to our respective cars then went to a local coffee place that was packed with no room to sit so after sitting outside in the cold she suggested going to one of our cars. She chose mine because it was bigger. We talked, listened to the radio and held hands.
I felt it was a good night and she does want to see me again.
When we hugged goodnight it felt like she didn’t want to release me.
