i took some time before writing this post because i needed some time to think, enjoy and come back on earth after this 1st "official" rendez vous or as American-Newyorker people will call it a " second Date".
What an event!
We have been text messaging and calling each other the whole week, i was waou! he is too normal,is he for real? it may sound too much but believe me when you have been through dating in
New york city you really become paranoid!
We decided to meet up at 8;00pm Uptown.
I left the office at 5;30pm, i needed at least 2 hours to be ready. I figured knowing myself, i am going to change of clothes approximately 10 times
(which happened!), i needed to figure what i was going to do with my hair ( yes a big challenge!) since he already saw me as a "sheep" i figure it will probably be better if he sees me "straight'! and it takes a lot of work...
After being ready, i needed my cousin's approval. And of course, he had to tell me to change and here i am again, trying to get dressed up doing a 'defile" it is 7;30pm?!!!? i am going to be late!
What a rush, i am stressed!
i ran to get a cab and of course i had to forget the address! I called cousin and he couldn't find it, so i tried to call my date, impossible to reach him! everything was going so well!
I got into the cab and tell him , lets go Uptown and he goes east or west! i had a total black out, impossible to remember! I am stressing! I am like think about your hair!
(yes, stressing= schvitzing= curly!! and that we don't want!
My date called me and gave me the address ( ouf!!) he tells me to relax he was already there waiting for me! hmm, i am relieved!
i got to the restaurant and before entering a weird feeling seized me: i was afraid but a good afraid feeling, i was excited and happy! it was so new to me, hmmm a delice....
i took him by surprise! and he reacted like in a 'cinderalla' movie type and just said
"You look BEAUTIFUL! and then he won me over of course! smart the " mec"="guy".
We had a beautiful dinner, talking, drinking and having fun! i have never felt so good! But in the back of my head, i couldn't help thinking " is he going to kiss me tonight"?? or am i going to wait for a 3rd date? (he is really formal and very conservative!) not that i wanted to jump on him! but... i wanted to know...
you understand, right?
Then, we left the restaurant and we started to walk, just to walk, and he took my hand
( and iam LIKE YES!!!)! after 10 minutes walking which is very long especially when you have one thing in mind "le bisou. le bisou"... he stopped and said he had to call it a night because he had to wake up very early! and now what?
my heart is racing of course, my palms are sweaty... and before i know it he gave me this famous BISOU!
the chemistry worked beautifully... i am simply in heaven!
It's been a week since your first official rendez-vous. Have you had any more dates?
