I had to google a wild serval cat, and whoa, they’re interesting looking! But, uh, wow, only 4, huh? (*eyeroll*)
That is so gross MissDre! Who DOES that?! (This guy, obviously.)
Hooray for great dates, Veritek, Stone, and Cleopatra!! Sounds like lots of fun!! And, happy birthday ktfran!
I am going out with NYE Dude on saturday! We’re going to go to my fave tiki bar and then ride cable cars. He’s looking forward to seeing me again and I am too!! I’m trying to not feel too overly excited, just because it’s only the second date, but I like this guy and I hope it goes well. 🙂 I’m also going to check out some food trucks friday night with another guy I had drinks with right after Christmas (from coffee meets bagel). He’s nice, very friendly, but someone I’d see more as a friend. I figure it’s good to keep my options open and it could be a good time. I just don’t think I want to actually date him…
Thanks guys! I’ve actually never dated anyone younger than me. Usually I’m the younger one- the largest gap for me has been 9 years. I guess now the tables are reversed! At any rate… I may just throw out a couple of dates to get together again, probably next weekend since my weeknights are filling up already for next week. He can take me up on that if he wants.
Ktfran, I hear you on the difficulty of getting back into yoga on the weekends- I am determined to go to a 9am ballet class tomorrow morning. I’ve slacked off for so long because I wind up sleeping in. It’s gonna happen, I’m not allowing myself any excuses!
And yay, Stonegypsy, on your new sparkly dude!!
Hi guys,
Just a little update on my wednesday night date! It was great! So, we met at a bar for drinks, and proceeded to talk for probably 3 hours. Then we left, and went back to his place and watched Masters of None, and ended up making out. Which led to some sexy times and cuddling. And, I may have left at 3am. (Whoops.) Needless to say, it was really fun, he’s totally adorkable, very self aware, and extremely hot. And we have a lot in common, but not too much in common. The only thing is, I think he’s pretty young. Like 25 young (to my 31). Which isn’t a huge deal in itself, but yeah.
We didn’t make any plans, but I texted him last night to say thanks for a fun evening, etc and suggested exploring some themed bars sometime if he was up for it (we both talked about a couple, and he suggested we go). He did reply that he had a fun time as well, and that he was up for exploring.
All in all, a good time, I’d like to see him again, and I get the feeling he does as well.
@Lianne, he texted me the day after actually! Turns out he left his wallet at the place and they contacted him. We’ve texted a bit since, and we’re going on on Wednesday! We’re meeting at a bar. In one of his texts he said he had an amazing time and kinda wanted to pick up where we left off. Eep! I’m actually kind of nervous now!
@Ktfran, the whole photo thing is so weird. So, when I was walking out to find my friends, I ran into her, and she said she’d text me the photos, so I gave her my number. And I say photos because she took candid ones, of us making out. SO WEIRD. She said that she’s just a romantic. I say she’s more than that… Anyway, I laughed it off and I guess now I have proof that it happened!I also saw a pic of Veritek’s army dude- he’s CUTE. Get it girl!
Yay for awesome makeouts and fun parties!!
Story time: My new years was pretty fun. My 2 friends and I went to this bar/music venue that had 80’s/90’s music- a really low key crowd, people were friendly, and I got a compliment on my dress! I wound up dancing with my friends on the stage along with other people, and as midnight got closer, more people came and joined. I saw this really cute guy wearing a coat- meanwhile I was totally hot and sweaty, and my friend and I were like, what the heck, take it off! So he did, and he and I wound up kind of dancing together and talking over the music. At midnight, this random woman near us pushed us together and told us to kiss (I obliged, on the cheek), and he and I wound up dancing together and then made out like bandits right there on the stage. Under lights. My friends went to get water and when they came back they said that we were right under a light and people were dancing around us. Whoops. Around 1 my friends wanted to get going, since they were worried about getting an uber, and they were my ride (and I felt uncomfortable staying alone and finding my way back to her apt) I decided to leave with them. I felt really bad leaving so abruptly… but he did ask me for my contact info and we swapped numbers. So! It was a fabulous evening. Now? Not sure if I’ll actually hear from him… but I am considering texting him tomorrow to say that I had a nice time with him, sorry to leave so abruptly, maybe we could hang out sometime. (I dunno…?) Also? The random woman who pushed us together took our picture and texted it to me. So odd. (She said she was a romantic.)
Hope everyone had a good evening, whatever your plans!
For photos, remember to stand up straight! And keep your shoulders back. Bonus- it’ll make your bust more… prominent? (not sure if that’s the best word?) Always a nice thing, especially if you’re in a corset! 😀
I’ve read that when posing for photos, it’s often best to pose at an angle rather than head on. And I read something about how only having one ear showing in a photo looks better. (As in, turn yourself at an angle so one ear is away from the camera.)
I’m sure whatever you do, you’ll look awesome. 🙂
This thread is totally epic. I hope we keep it going for a long time!
I had a date last night at a wine bar- one that my office renovated a few years back, incidentally. It was a nice time. Nice conversation, friendly guy. I feel like I keep meeting guys who like to talk a lot, though. It’s weird. And it’s not like I sit there and say nothing- more like, they just get going on some subjects (or themselves) and I interject with comments here and there. Anyway, I had a nice time, but like the last date, that was kind of it for me. Would I want to see him again? Not sure. I just feel so ambivalent about it all, which is frustrating.
Hooray for your Xmas eve fling, LadyE!! (Get it girl!!) And I’m sorry to hear about your flake of a fwb, Cleopatra. That’s really annoying.
I met up with the Trombone Player last night- it was a nice evening and I’m glad I met him. Other than that… not much else to say. We met near my office for some hot chocolate, then walked around a little bit and ended up having some mediterranean food since it was dinner time. He kept asking me what I like to do for fun, and when I told him my typical week (work 9-6, gym, eat, etc) he was surprised at how busy I was and was like, how do you find time for men?? (Um, I dunno, I just do?) Anyway, I enjoyed talking to him but that was about it.
And then last night I got a text from a guy from eharmony I have emailed back and forth with, and the conversation got to be a little flirtatious. (I like flirting, so it made me smile.) So, hey, we’ll see. I’m not too worried though. 🙂
I like those tattoo ideas! I have an idea for a tattoo that I’m hoping to get once I achieve a couple of my personal goals. (as a treat for myself- I gotta work for it!)
I got matched with the trombone player on Coffee Meets Bagel. I generally “like” the matches I get unless there is something in their profile I don’t like. Anyway, he messaged me asking if I had done theater in high school, (since my profile listed my HS and we’re the same age) since he is from the same area and was in the orchestra. Turns out he was thinking of a different school from mine that has the same name, but I did do some theater and we got to talking about that. Anyway, he’s pretty nice to talk to, we seem to have a few things in common, and he’s fairly cute. I’m actually curious to meet him, since I have never met a trombone player. So yeah!
That black tie party sounds really cool, Kare!
Also, I may be going on a date with a professional trombone player.
Super cute, Veritek!! I’m glad you had a great time! It sounds like it was a blast!
