Last of the Marathon date week.

Last night was the fifth date in seven days. It was the first date with the Health Consultant. He was nice. Not nice in the kiss of death nice way that I usually say to C2 meaning he was nice but he’ll never put his paws on my body. But nice in the way of refreshing, down to earth, intelligent, interesting… he was nice to hang out with. He is 6’ tall (++), nice eyes and cute face (+). He was only a little dorky and a bit on edge - first dates with me do that to guys. I can always see it in their eyes when they meet me. Funny how that works. I wonder what they see in my eyes - probably not much. I’m not all that good at poker face during poker, but poker face otherwise…I got it down. Pissed off at the conference room table – upper echelon will never know. Ready to pounce on a co-worker – they never know til I’m done (poor unsuspecting blokes). A good or bad date – they rarely know what to think. Not that I do it on purpose. My demeaner is just a reflection of them, usually, I guess.

Any way, we had a lovely time chatting, eating and drinking. He’s got a lurid past that I won’t tell you about - to respect his privacy. Not that it is all that bad, but just something that bugs him- as it does everyone I know who is in that situation. But that isn’t my concern. His emotional health is. So, I wrote him today about it. He indicated I was right…friends first, take it slow, etc.

He’s pretty busy for the next several weeks. I’m not sure I feel like waiting around. Not sure his emotional instability is worth it. We do have a lot in common. He kind of is the male version of me in a Ying/Yang sort of way. He has a well developed feminine side without losing his masculinity. Flip the genders and that’s me. That’s what makes me want to wait. So, I guess I’ll keep emailing. I’m not that patient, though. I say I want to take things slow. But, I don't want to wait. Daddy, I want an Oompa-loompa and I want one NOW!!!!

I believe that attitude is what started the Abercrombie Itch search discussion!
