Colin messaged me on Facebook on Sunday evening. Short and sweet:
Hey! It was great meeting you last night.
I responded saying that it was great meeting him too, and I can’t believe we’re neighbors.
He wrote back and added that we should grab coffee or a drink one of these days.
I wrote back with: I would love to. What does your schedule look like?
To which he replied: I’m pretty flexible with my schedule. Just pick a day and I’ll make it happen. You can email me at: xxxx Look forward to it!
He’s SO super cute. I like that he seems excited to have met me. There’s no bullshit about waiting 3 days to get in touch with me, no playing it too cool. It was easy and straight forward, right off the bat. So I decided to email him:
So, we’ve graduated to actual emails, huh? This is very exciting! Would you want to have lunch with me on Thursday? Maybe around 1pm?
And his response:
Words can not describe how exciting this is!!! Would love to do lunch on Thursday.
Shall I pick a place? Where will you be coming from?
Several things are going through my mind at this point—a) he gets my sense of humor and throws it right back, b) he offered to PLAN our lunch which is so refreshing for me and c) he still really does seem genuinely excited to see me again. I am really starting to see what I’ve been missing out on by dating younger men (boys). Older is definitely the way to go! There’s no bullshit involved, they’re capable of making decisions AND they are not afraid to show you that they like you. I am hooked.
