How are you supposed to just start dating again when you leave a marriage? That's the big question i've been asking myself here recently. It's been a month since my separation began and my best friend and her husband have taken it upon themselves to set me up on a "blind date" with one of his friends. This seems like something that would be normal for most people but for me it was horrific and scary!!
So of course I was the last one who knew about this date and it was sprung up on me at the last minute so how could I say no right? Right. So i'm thinking okay you know how bad could it be?
I go home get ready and meet up with my friend and her husband at their house so we can all ride together on this date. Before we even get to go we are a half hour late! They took so long to get ready!! So finally they are both ready and we end up leaving and meeting my "date." Now this is the hard part for me; im not good at meeting new people. We pull in and i see him get out of the car and im pretty sure my jaw dropped to the floor! This guy was gorgeous! Tall dark and handsome! (Army soldier) Tattoos all over his arms I mean I was in awe!
Then the nerves came. What am I supposed to say or do? This guy is way too good looking to even give me the time of day! Well we introduce ourselves and go into eat. This is the nicest place I have ever eaten! He sits next to me and we awkwardly make conversation with each other, while the chef cooks the food in front of us.
I had never been on a double date before, or a BLIND double date!! We get our food and everyone is getting along pretty well, After we get up to leave we all sit outside for a bit and smoke a cigarette and listen to my friend and her husband talk about whatever, honestly I couldn't even pay attention because all I could think about was whether or not this guy was into me.
Next thing I know i'm walking this guy to his car and getting away from our friends made things a little less awkward. We sat and talked for a minute or two, hugged goodbye and went our separate ways.
When I got home there was an unexpected text message on my phone telling me that he had a good time and that he wants to go on a second date!!!! AHHHH!!! So tonight i'm going on a second date with this guy. I am so nervous it is unreal! ( I am actually supposed to be getting ready right now because hes on his way)
I guess the moral of my whole rant is; if I can do it then you can do it! Nothing is holding me back from having a good time right now! Go out and live your life!!! Because it feels pretty good!
Until next time my Flowers!!
