Alright, I’ve recieved a couple of complaints about not posting the date update…chuckle..so here is the boring recap. (wink)

Alright, we agreed to meet at Denicola’s for dinner. It’s an italian restaurant that serves some decent food. It’s a good place to go for that first date. Incidentily, the last time I went to this place was my prom night for dinner. (chuckles)

Anyhow, we had a nice chat while eating. We have been talking for a few weeks online so I just kept reminding myself of that anytime I felt nervous. We’re going to refere to my date as “D”. Yes I’m going to keep their names anonamous because if they read this then they can’t get embarrassed because someone will know it’s them. D is rather handsome, his profile picture does him absolutely no justice whatsoever, his tongue is pierced which I find odd with his personality that I know of so far. I just roll my eyes with piercings, after all, I liked someone else who had his nipples pierced, I think it’s really silly, but it’s not my body.

Now before I continue, I have to mention just one thing. I love having someone else pay for everything. I handle the money, so when hubby and I went out, I dealt with everything. No biggie, didn’t think anything about it.

However, it’s so nice not to have to worry about the bill, I loved it. Talk about feeling spoiled. I know, simple thrills.

After dinner we went to the movie and saw Alien, the directors cut. There was only one scene that seems new to me, and that’s when Ripley finds Dallas, the captain, stuck to a wall where the Alien has attached him. Dallas whispers the common line..kill me, which Ripley does. New Scene’s are cool. It was nice to see that scene, because it created for me a better connection to the second Aliens where they find that colonist stuck to the wall in a similar manner. Story continuity…it’s a good thing.

Afterwards we laughed over the coming attractions, and some of the posters on the wall, and then we sat in my car and talked awhile and then we drove back to his car at the restaurant and he went home.

There was no kissing. As I realized yesturday…I’m not ready for romance. Especially after everything that has happened with my feelings about my cook in Philly. And frankly, as much fun as I had with him, I’m not planning on becoming exclusive with anyone for awhile. Of course if things get intense for me again with someone I won’t turn my back on it, but it was nice not having to worry about that. It was nice being out with someone. As a friend mentioned, I’ve taken that all important first step by going on a date with someone who was NOT the hubby. D and I have similiar tastes in movies so we’ll definately be getting together again.
