There's A New One!

I'm BACK! and blogging. Met up with I14 Broke the "rule" of no drinking and meeting bc it cloud's judgment. But, he suggested the pub, and I obliged. But it was good, I think, bc I kept it to a small beer.

I14 is ready to stop dating so he says, can't wait for it to be over. It was different because he has an introspective side. I can sense he thinks about things and people; not just to comment on. He said all the right things about what he values, his relationship with his friends/family, what he's looking for. There was a lot of Q & A about scenarios and situations. I was my normal "spastic" self, but I think he got it. I was brutally honest about where I was coming from and expectations from dating. How my expectations are contradictions, and I know it, but can't get away from it.

So far he seems genuine, simple, and down to earth. The down side so far (sorry I can't help it!) he drives a truck and is not "professional". I'm used to dating professionals--you know, finance, lawyer types and others who romp in that circle. He works in industry. It's just different than what I'm used to. He wants to travel, but hasn't done much. He grew up and still lives in the same area. I guess, he's just not as worldly as I'm used to, not in attitude (don't know about that yet) but in experience.

On his physical appearance/attractiveness...he's not striking/memorable like the guy from yesterday. But, I think most would say he's attractive.

I'm excited about this one, so that's good regardless. Cautious. Have to be.
