Sooo it's a bit past 11 and I JUST got home from my date. Im stunned at how tonight turned out. This guy is AMAZING! I can't remember the last time I had this much fun with a guy! I don't know if I ever have. Or if i've ever hit it off like this with a guy. Totally tossed me through a loop!
My day-
Kiddo and I woke up this morning and went swimming. We pretty much hung by the pool the whole morning, not a bad way to start off the day lol. We went over to my aunts store and helped out a bit. I love being in the store, it's like being in home decore heaven for me lol. After that just hung around the house and waited for kiddo to be picked up by freds wife for a sleepover (recap-fred is my older cousin, he's married with 2 kids, 2 boys). They are having a bunch of the kids over for movies/popcorn and a sleepover. Since school is out they do this twice a week (i think my cousin in law wants a ton of kids but fred doesn't so she settles for taking any kid she can get her hands on to babysit). My Aunt was gonna babysit for me, but this worked out better. It also helps my kiddo is the only young female cousin besides 1 thats a few months old. So everyone wants to hang out with her lol.
Once they picked her up I just hung out until my female cousin H came. She helped me get ready, doing my hair and helping pick out an outfit. She's a single mother (the mother of the only other girl on this side of the family, and she has 1 son), we've never been close until now. She's in her 30's so theres a big age difference.
Anywho it was quite a challange letting her help me get ready. She has some allergy problems and can't be around certain things (animals,seafood, cant touch latex, plus a ton of others) my Aunt has 5 golden's (3 we're my aunts and the other 2 were my cousins until this allergy stuff came up). So H has to stay outside. It's a huge pain in the butt because she can't really travel and can barely work.
I left for my date around 5:15ish, got there at 5:20. This time the guy was waiting for me, no being late (already off to a great start). We chatted for awhile outside at the sports bar, then went for a walk. We talked about anything and everything, it felt like talking to someone i've known forever. He was an awesome listener and seemed really into me. He admitted he's never dated another parent before and that it was nice to have someone that could relate to him.
He has 2 kids, a boy 16, and girl 14. Their at summer camp right now, and the mother is barely in their life (drugs/alcohol problem plus immature). He's an ex Marine and has a construction company. He hasn't dated much since getting divorced because he was either in the Marines, working on starting his own business, or his kids never liked the women he'd bring home.
He already knew alittle about me since he's friends with Fred. Like he knew about something I did in my teens because my cousin Fred was involved in it (got into some trouble when my parents were out of town and Fred had to come and force me to leave some people I was with). Kinda odd he remembered it, but I guess one less story I have to explain in the future. He also knew I was going through a 2nd divorce, and was really able to relate since he had been through it before. He knows my childs father and I were never in a relationship, and that im at an odd place right now. And he didn't run off screaming! lol My issues didn't seem to phase him at all!
We sat outside and just talked until like 10:45! He held my hand at the end of our date :) My heart just about melted. Sounds lame I know, but i've never felt like this. We didn't kiss :( Thats the only downside of the night. God I hope he calls me again. I'd be so let down if he didn't. Im on cloud nine right now :)
