Maybe I rushed to judgment on Ms. S
After thinking she was BS'ing me about meeting up again, we FINALLY met up (albeit a random phone call situation) this past weekend. We had a few drinks in person, gave each other a hug and she gave me a kiss on the cheek afterward.
Let me set up the situation...
I called her as I was on my way home from hanging with friends and ask if she wanted to hang out.
I was a little surprised she said yes...since it was kind of late (I believe it was 10:30 pm. when I called) and it was a last minute request. But she came out (dressed in a blouse and skirt) complete with makeup and she put on the good perfume. Hmm. I tried not to read into that much...but she did look good and smelled even better.
After we finished with drinks and a quick bit to eat, she told me to call her when I got home since I had a long drive. I did and we ended up being on the phone till like 5 a.m. We've had regular communication since. We're supposed to meet up again in mid-to-late September...so we'll see where this goes.
Tidbits from our conversation.
She's still a little bitter on how I called things off with her and often brings up the woman I left her for, Ms. C. I jokingly asked her if she's ever going to get past this....and she said...Y-E-S. I was like good...because I'm tired of talking about it. lol. I told her that things with Ms. C and I didn't work out...and everything happens for a reason. My basic speech to her was that I'm still single....your still single...if you still have feelings for me...all I'm asking is don't shut me out. Let's talk some more and see if the sparks are still there. She agreed...and that's where we left things.
-------------------------------------------------
I had a busy weekend as I found time for 3 dates (2 planned and the aforementioned random meet up with Ms. S).
Date # 1 with Ms. V.
Let me give you some background. I met Ms. V back in April. I saw her again during my birthday celebration in August for the second time. During one of my many drunken moments on my birthday, she claimed I "kissed her" outside the restaurant when we were all leaving. I DON'T REMEMBER doing that....so I'm officially pleading the 5th. Anyhow, we went to see "Takers" this past weekend and then had dinner at a Mexican spot close by. I wanted to do more that evening but she had to get up early for a hair appointment but promised there would be a second date. So, I'm looking forward to that. She's older than me, 36, to be exact, single, no kids, and was married once but got divorced. She's very intelligent and has a great smile and a fun personality. She's social worker and loves her job. That's important to me that someone loves what they do for a living. Her best physical trait: she's got a caboose that you could land a Boeing 747 on.
Date #3 with Ms. Y.
Yeah. You are reading correctly about date No. 3. I didn't mention dates No. 1 & 2 before with Ms. Y because I honestly didn't think I would want a third date with her. For every step forward she takes, she does something that puts her two steps backward. At some point, I think I'm going to cut my losses sooner rather than later. I met her in July and we met at a park to talk. We were at the park for like two hours and the conversation ended with a good night kiss. So, at that point it looked promising. It took a while to set up Date #2 with her (which should have been a red flag) and we went to eat for Date #2. During date #2 she revealed she's not sure she wants to get married and not sure if she wants kids. Actually, her exact words on both subjects is that she's indifferent. She also said some other crazy stuff but the marriage and kids thing is what I couldn't forget. RED FLAG ALERT. I should have run fast, run far, run until she's no longer visible in my rear view mirror. But I'm a gluten for punishment...it seems. She said she wanted to do something for me for my birthday, which led to us hanging out and Date #3 this weekend. She treated me to dinner at this nice spot and then we were supposed to meet up afterwards (she had to go into work for a 3 hours). We didn't meet up since she said she was tired from work and she never called me the next day when she promised me she would. We don't live close to each other so communication is important to me and so is time spent together...and she gets an D in the communication department. She's also slow on returning e-mails and calls but loves to text. You'll also notice I didn't give you her "stats" and that's a sign that I'm not that interested in someone that I write about. I know what you are thinking (if you are still reading this far...lol)...why did I let this get to date No. 3? I don't know but I can tell you I'm waving the white flag with both hands.
