^ No, I didn’t get that far with her yet but she was wearing heels. Maybe on the third date? Sorry, couldn’t resist. 😃 Yes, I haven’t felt this strongly about someone, especially so quickly, in a very long time. At the same time it’s very scary because i know my feelings for her will only get stronger and I’m afraid of getting hurt. It’s a chance I have to take though. ---

Take that chance, and don’t feel bad about how you feel. Life is too short to worry about crap. If you feel like you are falling deeply in love, let it happen, and hope she feels the same way too. Good luck on your next time out with this special lady! ---

My answer depends on whether or not it is her 16th birthday. 🙂 ---

I’m glad it worked out for **MuleSkinner** But honestly, as I was reading through this thread, I was thinking, 'Man, she only told him once a few weeks ago? And he remembered? No way in hell I’d bring that shit up. Too obsessive! I’m glad my cynical ass didn’t chime in until _after_ the date. 🙂 ---

Don’t leave us hanging, man… How were the brownies? ---

^ The brownies were great, Bob, and I’m not just saying that- I’m pretty picky with brownies. I don’t like brownies that are too cakey, but I don’t like them too fudgey either. Some brownies don’t taste chocolatey enough. These were just right! This last Saturday was four weeks since our first date. We went out to dinner and it was our first time out for dinner since our first (we’ve had a lot of deliveries). We had a nice time and again she looked absolutely beautiful. I brought my camera and our server took our first picture together. We’ve seen each other every Saturday and Wednesday except for this past Wednesday. It was a long week without her, but we made up for it by seeing each other on Sunday too. She made me dinner and it was great. She makes some mean meatballs (beef, veal and pork combo) and homemade sauce. Yeah, I still believe she’s going to be my wife someday… and I think she knows it. 🙂 ---

Good for you! Your next post in this thread cannot be later than July 19th. Anything more is fine. Anything less might require releasing the goat, … or the squid. 😃 ---
