the single sister has a crush!

So most of you know that I have been single for a long time now and it has been a great thing for myself. I have learned so much about myself, what I want, what I need and what is important to me and really all of this could not happened as much if I was in a relationship all this time. While I continue to feel the pressure of finding someone from many people in my life, I feel that it cannot be this thing that I go looking for. I can't search around for the perfect guy that I want to date...as one of my closest friends has always said "it must come naturally."

I totally believe that is the case. For a few months I completely stopped thinking that when I went out with friends or really involved myself in any social situation, I needed to meet guys. I also quit going on dates for a bit until recently. Well I recently went on a mellow coffee date with this guy that I actually met last May, but have been too shy to ever pursue anything with. I finally decided that I wanted to contact him, say hello and see what would happen next. When we first met, there was this mutual attraction to each other and I never forgot this. So I decided to finally pursue and see if the attraction was still there after running into him last week. I had him number so gave him a friendly text. Texting felt a lot more safe to me than calling him, although I do prefer to call. Well to make a long story short, we went out for coffee/tea last Saturday night and it went so well! Seriously I was shocked how well the date went. I am glad that I asked him to coffee because it mellow and a great way to just get to know each other. Date number 2 is happening tonight, where he invited me to dinner at his place tonight!

I am excited, I haven't had a serious crush in so long. I'll keep you all posted on how it goes tonight. I was nervous before our first date, and even when I stopped by to say hi to him when he was working at his campus job at the the Health and Wellness center, but I do not feel nervous for tonight! I feel a bit impulsive, and quite excited about it. Gosh I love having a new crush. It is helping me stay less stressed right now.

YIPEE :)

Have a good day everyone!
