First Date

Just back from my first date with IE15. He's physically not my type. How important is that? He made me laugh, kept up with my sense of humor, and was trying to impress me. But, he's not physically my type, though he's not unattractive. Ohhh...it's so hard. And, his background is not the conventional, high school, college, work, grad degree etc that I'm used to. He went to college 10 years after, which in many ways shows so much more character. But, it's just not what I'm used to. His current job is more or less "professional". But, sometimes I wonder if some men are attracted just because of my "professional" degree and they think I'm smart. I get the vibe that the interest is more in the pursuing of the smart girl to prove his own ability. Like going after the pretty girl just to see if he can. Am I reading too far into it? Probably. I guess the bottom line is that I don't see him as my conventional type. He wants to see me again and I said yes.

When I first saw him, my suspicions were confirmed. I didn't quite remember what he looked liked; it'd been 2 weeks. That "first" impression was, yeah, he's not my type. When we met, he wore a blazer, and came across much more OC conservative. But tonight he wore tshirt, jeans, large belt buckle, front of shirt tucked behind the buckle. So not my conventional type.
