My photo
I am a strait shooter, a smart ass, independent, loyal, stubborn, attractive, kind, sexy, crazy, grounded, confused, funny and completely sane. I have a ten year old daughter, she is a better person than anyone I have ever known and my heart grew three sizes the day I met her. I am a 35 year old widow that had an awesome marriage for eleven years and I am entering the dating world. For the most part men seem scared to death of me and some have told me that I am too confident to approach. I am working on becoming a better me, without losing me in the process. These are my tales of discovery and disaster as a born again single.

Meeting for a Drink, Date Number Three

Round Three!  I am having drinks with one of my foul mouthed girlfriends.  Yes, I am foul mouthed but I had been keeping the sailor at bay around the choir boy.  So, he calls during this drinking ritual we have....  I say that I am busy, she said she wants to meet this character that I have been telling her about.  (The choir boy that hasn't tried anything.)

He comes to this little sports bar we are at.  Friend and I are on our third beer each... he orders a soda.  (Shocking)  My friend has less of a filter on her mouth than I do and she gets worse, as do I, when drinking.  As my friend talks... the choir boy can only set there in amazement as she weaves a web of F-bombs into what would otherwise be a normal conversation.  I can tell he is extremely uncomfortable and he keeps acting like he has got to go.  I offer to walk the choir boy to his car.

I stand at his car in perfectly good position to be kissed and...... NOTHING!  He does plead for me to see him for the holiday.  I explain my commitment to my family and my late husbands family and my daughter.  He is good with it, so we agree to meet sometime between Christmas and the New Year.  I am thinking "is it going to take the pressure of the New Year count down to get this dude to kisses me"?
