It looks like I'm going to have a date on Saturday
It's official: Hell has frozen over. It will be my first date in 13 years. I feel a little weird about all of this. There is a small part of me that is still screaming in protest. I was supposed to have relegated myself to a life of solitude due to an unfortunate chemical imbalance in my brain. I've already told her about that. She revealed something very personal and I, in turn, did the same thing. Everybody is okay with everything, except for that little protesting part of me.

We haven't met in person yet. We met on a dating website. But I've talked to her several times on the phone and I have become more comfortable with her. Hopefully that easy feeling will translate over into our date.

1. I hope you have a great time on Saturday!
Never mind the life of solitude. Nobody's perfect and you deserve to be happy and have fun.

3. Yay!
Stuff that protesting part in a sock and try to have fun. You have no other obligation except perhaps to refrain from farting aloud during the evening. :D

4. I once decided to stop dating altogether...but it seems that Fate had a different plan for me.

I think I went about 3 1/2 years alone, and I wasn't looking to stop,
when I bumped into my Sweetie by random chance.
That will be nine years ago, come this Friday around 10:00 PM.

And thanks for reminding me of that- I really need to get my butt in gear
on the "anniversary present" front!


Good luck on Saturday! :thumbsup:

8. You're both on the right track already
and it sounds like you've both got the difficult part out of the way. That's a good sign.
