1st Date

I haven't written in a while.. but now that I am, there is someone new in my life. I'm not going to be so quick to say that he is someone significant, because I have no idea. Lets call him 'Mike'. I was introduced to Mike not too long ago and we hit it off right away. 

Me and Mike hit it off for many reasons. Firstly, he is super-charming. I feel really comfortable in his presence and he has a strong mind. When we first met, I put him to the test. In my 'test' I look to see how strong a person's mind is. I challenge them on different topics such as: music, religion and random philosophy. I look to see if he is easily swayed (which is a big no no). I look to see that he is not afraid to disagree with me (because I hate people who agree to everything I say). Needless to say, he passed.. with flying colours! It turns out that he is keen about having such philosophical discussions-- (I melted). 

He is in Teacher's College wanting to become a Gym-Teacher but has plans to start many businesses on the side, in the near future. Ambitious (yes!). Well educated (bonus!). He is a dream to look at- without sounding mushy. He is one beautiful looking man. He has the most perfect face and smile. He works out everyday so its no surprise that his body is super-amazing as well. One thing I should have mentioned earlier- his birthday. Are you ready? Dun-Dun-DUN........... Valentines Day. Its not the fact that he is born on Valentine's Day.. but because that is one day apart from Rob's birthday. Yes, another Aquarius man. 

It seems that I only seem to be attracted to Aquarius men, but they have the strongest minds and biggest imaginations! I have 5 years experience in dealing with the most difficult Aquarius.. so I'm more than ready for this one. I already know how to handle these men (minimal contact, don't ask questions about what they are thinking, don't expect any emotion, expect them to withdraw, yada yada yada...)

Anyway, on the day of our first date I was working late until 9 and was thinking maybe we shouldn't meet up.. but he insisted and said he would pick me up from work around 9. I agreed. (I'm going to cut the entire story so its shorter)

We made it to the theatre parking lot but didn't want to get out of the car because we were having such a good conversation. We went in anyway. Once we sat down it, I thought it would be awkward (considering I haven't been on a date in five years, totally forgetting how to act at the movies) but I was super comfortable. I kept my hands in my lap and made sure not to lean towards him. He, on the other hand was completley leaning towards me. Many times, he turned to look at me but I wouldn't look back (being the difficult bitch). I knew he was trying to make eye contact so that we would kiss but I already knew before I came that I wasn't going to kiss him. Half way through out the movie he grabbed my hand and held it, with a tight grip. Caressing his thumb over my fingers.
"Wow"
I was in shock. Not because he held my hand but because no one has ever held my hand. It had been so long since I felt any sort of affection. It was cute and innocent, I allowed it.

Once the movie ended, he took out his hand to walk my down the stairs behind him. BUT- he didn't let go when we got outside. That's right.. he held my hand in front of everyone at the theatre! I even saw someone I knew, and people he knew, but he didn't care. In a way it was awkward because I was not used to it and because well, its our first date.. but I allowed him to do that again because holding hands is harmless.

We walked out to his car and sat there until 4am and fucked. MIND-FUCKED that is. We talked about everything once again.. and it was just perfect! I had my shoes off and feet up on the seat, without a care.. I was comfortable around him. He told me about his sports that he plays and his passion for soccer. He told me about his future plans and talked to me about some of his childhood. By the time we knew it, it was already 3am. So we headed home.

Once we got outside, he unbuckled his seat belt and gave me a big hug. He kissed me on my cheek and then I left to go home. 

Once I got into bed, I recapped the entire night in my head and smiled to myself. I was glad I had finally given him a chance because I normally push men away from me. I closed my eyes that night and did my usual prayers... I still prayed for Rob and his well being. And then for a second my thoughts raced to him... but I chose to dismiss them and told myself that he had already given another man the opportunity to make me smile, and that he was losing me. 

It was weird that I thought of Rob but it was expected.. I was going to compare my first date to Rob. Yes, Mike is amazing.. but obviously he hasn't given me what Rob has.. yet. What will come out of Mike? Time will only tell.. but I'm more than willing to him another date!
