Dating - how hillarious


Hello Everyone!

Guess what?  I went on a date.  He suggested take out and a movie at his place.  I suggested Starbucks!  Starbucks it was.  He was a gentleman.  Opened my door, ordered my coffee and the whole nine yards.  Good family and cute and sweet.  This was our frist meeting.  Sounds good so far?  Well...............

I had to go pick him up, his cars in the shop.  Well, that happens.
All the gentleman stuff.  Well, that was nice.
********RUBBING MY BACK, while we were drinking coffee*****NOT
********SUBOXONNE PATIENT**********************NOT
NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT

What the hell????  At least i'm smiling, I got out there!

Date # 2-------------NOT


HILLARIOUS!!!! having to date again!

Sincerely,
Tonya

Ah, yes that happens.  After I was in program for about two years and had started to love me first ~ then everything changed and I had boundaries and like u it was very easy to spot the A's and otherwise losers and users. 
    I say, keep it light but stick tight to those boundaries, if u see red flags - run away fast. 

It is my belief that HP sends out some to you, to make sure u really are serious about your new life & boundaries, so u will get some 'junk males' at first but like the junk mail u get daily, u just toss it out without another thought (thank god for detachment).  Eventually u will meet someone that is worthy to actually date and get to know.  Then the realtionshipitself will get ttested and AGAIN stick tight to your boundaries and focus on YOU.

Way to take care of YOU.

You are great, Tonya! Good job making it safe, seeing it for what it was, and enjoying it nonetheless.

Blessings,
Lou

What is it with guys and "movies at their place"? LOL Seems like nobody actually wants to do the dating process anymore just jump into bed. That's been my experience in the past few months. Either no interest at all or I want you NOW. Where's the happy medium? All I know is dating sucks, relationships are just a step above that. Jaded? possibly lol.

Aloha Tonya...What a great date...he had nothing to do just be respectful and
friendly...he could have left the other stuff in the trunk.   Poor ego... LOL
(((((hugs))))) smile


How humbling this was for me also.
