Crestfallen_KH Posted March 2, 2008 Posted March 2, 2008 Are you saying that if I had to ask if it is too soon, it is? Yes. But good luck on your date regardless.
eagle5 Posted March 2, 2008 Posted March 2, 2008 Dfree any updates???? Hope it went well mate but don't go leaving us and this wonderful forum just yet!!!!!
Author dfreeman Posted March 2, 2008 Author Posted March 2, 2008 Hi everybody, Thanks for the support - the date went okay and we only talked a little at the end about our recent breakups. We more or less kept it to talk about our experience of the whole thing and how we came out of it. We didn't sit around and have a bash session on the exes and that was nice. The first 98% of the date was great and we had plenty to talk about. We talked about family, travel, hobbies, work, friends and other first date type stuff. I think it would have been a little awkward for both of us if the subject of the breakups didn't come up a little, because we were both aware of each-other's status, but didn't really know much about where we were in dealing with it. I think the fact that we both kinda waited until the end of the night to brush over it lightly is a good sign...shows me that she was not eager to rush into that subject and let it rule the conversation for the whole night? Now for a little bad news... I didn't get a great feel from her - kinda friend-ish, but there was a little spark/interest to build on. We made plans to do something in a couple weeks and I get the sense that she is either interested in spending time together as friends or is just giving me more time to distance myself from the ex? All-in-all a fun time and a night out with a woman other than the EX
prisonbreak Posted March 2, 2008 Posted March 2, 2008 You said...."All-in-all a fun time and a night out with a woman other than the EX :)" That's all you were asking for and I'm glad you did!!! Good job, you got out there and mingled. Thanks for updating me/us. I was sitting in alone last night, I checked LS a few times and thought to myself...I wonder how Dfree is making out right now? Btw, I'm glad to see you are not over analyzing the night, good job taking it in stride.

Btw, I'm glad to see you are not over analyzing the night, good job taking it in stride. Thanks for thinking of me - as corny as it sounds, I kinda knew some of my LS support group was at home wishing me well. I pretty much had to take it all in stride and there is not really too much to overanalyze about last night. She is a smart woman, and based on my timeline, I knew the night would be slow on the romance, but still a good deal of fun. Ya know, it's funny that it seems that I ignored Cali's advice by going on this date, yet his words ran through my head and kept me in check the entire time. From a guy's perspective, him and A&B seem to be walkin the walk when it comes to really trying to heal and move on.
eagle5 Posted March 2, 2008 Posted March 2, 2008 Glad to hear it was ok, she sounds like she has her head screwed on, so do you by the way. Hey it was the first step to get back out there without your ex and if nothing else you've got a close friend to talk to, good result in all my friend.
