Hey all, I have a date!

Hey guys! It's C*A*L*L*I*E.

I just wanted to let you know that after 13 months of being divorced I have a date! I've been asked out multiple times by people along the way but knew I wasn't ready, wasn't interested and declined. A few threads ago I was talking about a guy that's a childhood friend. We've been talking, I knew he was interested, but made it very clear I was only interested in friendship. He was actually my boyfriend in 7th grade. LOL

Well, last week he asked me to come over and he'd cook me dinner. I finally said yes. It's just dinner (he's cooking) and I'm renting a movie. Only on a friends level. He knows everything that I've been through. He's not pushing at all and is walking the baby steps with me. He knows my family, I know his, we have many mutual friends in common etc. He knows my story, I know his. We are 1 year apart. He has a dd that's a year younger than mine.

We were talking and he asked me what I expected out of a man. My answer... no drugs, no losing jobs, no wrecking cars, no prison time served. LOL. His response was that I make him as gitty as a school girl and he'd love to have the opportunity to treat the kids and I the way we should be treated. He said any man would be lucky to have the opportunity to be in my life blah, blah, blah.

Anyway ~ nothing to heavy at all on my part. Just feels good to be in the land of the living again.

Have fun Callie. I'm glad you are taking things slow and not jumping into a relationship with him, no matter what his WORDS say.

Callie, It's great to see you taking care of yourself. Baby steps is a good way to start dating. Congrats to you!

Hugs,
