So onto my post. I'm gonna be super short and sweet today. I had mentioned from Wednesday's post Dating No No what not to do if a guy is trying to court a girl. Well turns out after this dud, I got ballsy and sent a "wink" to a guy who I thought was cute (call me shallow) and expected nothing from it. From reading the guys profile, he seemed like a normal, down to earth kind of guy, just what I needed. Well a few days later, not only did he "wink" back, but he sent me an email too! My giddy little heart went nuts that day. So after a few email exchanges back and forth, we are going on a date TONIGHT!!! I'm so excited, but superrrrrrr nervous at the same time. I have honestly not been on a first date in years, especially not with a guy I was pretty interested in. When we exchanged numbers, he sent me a text saying how he was really looking forward to meeting me and that was just the sweetest thing.

He is also attentive to detail because for our date he is taking me to a local chocolate lounge for some coffee and cupcakes (2 of my absolute favorite things in the world). I feel like because I'm super nervous, it's a good thing we aren't meeting up where alcoholic drinks are being served because I may overdrink and look like a hot mess. I still have absolutely no idea what I'm going to wear, but with the cold temps, I may opt for cozy casual (sweater, leggings, boots).

I really hope this guy is as good in person as he is on paper (or a webpage) and I will of course let you guys know how everything goes and if we plan on a second date!! Hopefully I don't meet him with sweaty palms, but I'm counting on my nerves taking over completely (thank god for the cold weather in that sense).


I'll be hoping for some fireworks between us (cheesy as hell I know)
