eHarmony: Date Two (Guy #2) - GEORGINA

Well…it was a good one.

I’m sitting there, last night, thinking I don’t want to give this guy a chance because I didn’t sit down in front of him and IMMEDIATELY think, “Wow, he’s the One.” I do immediately think, however, “Wow, this guy is cute.” And he gets cuter the more we talk and the more I found out how much we have in common.

Dr. NCW did a good job on this one.

And…that’s all I’ll say right now. Stay tuned for a (hoped for) repeat performance.

It did make me think, though, about the idea of “the One”. I've never believed in the idea of "the One" and never believed that there was only one other person out there in the world for me. That just seemed pretty hopeless to me. I'd much rather prefer to think that there were many men, that based on circumstances or timing, that I would be able to make a good and happy life with. My mother has always said that she knew on the first date with my dad that he was the one and that she was going to marry him. It’s pretty clear to me now that that statement has resonated with me all these years, and that I have initially (and to be honest, harshly) written off guys simply because I did not feel an instantaneous spark.
The Stats:
I wore: black skinny jeans, light blue button up, a black and white striped cardigan. Over it I wore [Andy’s new] black capelet, and black booties.
He wore: jeans and a black v-neck sweater, with a dark gray wool peacoat.
Random facts: He’s a fan of Les Parrott.
Second date possibility: YES. At least….I hope. He mentioned several times how we had to get together again and that he would call me. So we’ll see.
Overall score: I was extremely and pleasantly surprised at how good of a time I had. The time flew by, we never ran out of things to talk about, and I spent a lot of time laughing. We covered every major subject, from childhood upbringing, to religion, to politics, and beyond. I would say, as far as first dates go, it was probably a good 8 out of 10. And if you know me…you know that means something!

Saturday I go on eHarmony Date Number Three, with Guy Number Three. And yes, it's the Canadian this time.

  1. YAY for a good date. I do that sometimes too- when I don't feel an initial spark I want to throw in the towel. But I think there is something to be said for letting it brew and giving it a chance.
