Middle Name Guy

So, I went out with middle name guy today. At first, I thought it was going to be horrible. He didn't really even speak! After we sat down, things got better. He opened up, but it was a little hard to hear. He seemed nice enough, but I'm not sure if its going to go anywhere. He didn't go to college, and didn't seem to really value education, so that could be a problem for me. We did have a nice awkward moment. He asked if I liked to travel, and I said yes, but I have trouble finding people to go with. His response was, I'll go with you. So, I just pretended that I didn't hear it. He wanted to do something after the date, but given that its valentine's day, anything we tried to do would be so crowded it wouldn't be worth it. He's going out of town next weekend, and he's supposed to call about going out again. I figure I can give it one more shot, I think.....We'll see if that changes after tomorrow.

Valentine's Day Weekend

Okay, so I have my first ever date for Valentine's Day. When I say ever, I'm even including those "going together" type relationships from when I thought going together actually meant something. I'm 29, and never had any one in my life for Valentine's Day. Sad thing this year, I'm actually looking forward to my date on Sunday, more than my one on Saturday.

Let me tell you about the guy on Sunday. We'll call him Air Force Guy. I got matched with him last Monday, and we couldn't get together last weekend because he was guarding the country, and I was taking the LSAT. He's 33, widowed, no kids, and attends church regularly. While we didn't have a long conversation, he was nice, friendly, and seemed to be outgoing. Originally, we scheduled the date for Valentine's Day. Then, about 10 minutes later, he called me back to reschedule to Sunday, since he has a friend getting married tomorrow. He was so apologetic, it was really sweet. Then, this evening, he called to confirm, and to wish me a happy valentine's day. I kid you not, I actually blushed over a phone call. He's certainly starting to look really good.

Now, for the guy for tomorrow. We'll call him, Middle Name Guy. I got matched with him this Monday. When we set up the date, he seemed really shy, which makes guys REALLY hard to talk to. And, in the middle of the conversation, he blurted out that he goes by his middle name, not the name the service gave me. I hate to say it, but I had flash backs of the guy who lives with his mother. I'm trying to keep an open mind, really, I'm trying. If I start comparing, I'm afraid this guy will fall short.

So, when this weekend is over, I'll hopefully be in the right mood to post details! Happy Valentine's Day!
