Run-in's and Dreamy Dates

What is it with guys reappearing this summer?!

Paolo moved away last year to go to grad school, but he was back in town a few days ago and was trying to organize a little reunion! I was pretty shocked, since he dumped me, yet now he's inviting me out to meet his friends! I think since we're still Facebook friends, he must have been stalking my photos and seen how much fun I've been having. He said he thought of me since he was in town and was wondering if I had plans or if I would go out that night with him and his group of friends. It would have been fun to see him again, but I had plans with Guy No. 1 and so couldn't get together with Paolo.

Another night, I was going to meet up with some girlfriends at a club. Sitting at my friends' table, I found a guy I had gone out with once before. (He's incredibly hot!) A couple days after we went out though, he messaged me to say he didn't feel a connection and wished me well. I was sad, since he was really sweet up until then, but I appreciated that he would let me know. Anyway, at the club this past weekend, we awkwardly avoided eye contact until I finally just decided to go up to him and say hi. He was really sweet, until the new girl he's dating showed up.

There are a couple other instances, but I'd rather talk about Dreamy. We have another date in a couple days and I am so excited! He's one of those guys who doesn't text nonstop, which I appreciate, but when he does check in, he always says something really thoughtful and hilarious. I found out I work with one of his relatives, and I'm dying to gossip with her about him! Dreamy is also an expert with setting up dates. He asked for my phone number in the first place (instead of offering his number for me to call), he requests in advance for dates (and states "let's go out on XX day" instead of meekly asking, "do you want to go out?"), he chooses the place and time, and he refuses to let me help pay. Oh, and he always insists we get dessert. It's adorable. Third date, let's do this!

  1. How many dates have you had with Guy #1? It's definitely good to play the field for a little bit until things get serious or you find yourself lying to one of the guys (since they seem like good ones!). I like guys who take charge of the planning, it's so refreshing.

    1. I've had several real dates with Guy No. 1, but I've seen him a lot outside of that too - I've lost track. He's not great at being mysterious and tries to see me almost daily (which I do not allow)...

      And I hate worrying about whether a guy will like my date choice or whether the price is too high - it's so much less stressful on me for him to make those choices!

  2. New to your blog, but definitely agree with Sabrina - she is a wise lady :)
    I have to say, I also like a guy who takes charge of planning!

    1. Thanks for saying hi, and welcome! And I agree, I really value Sabrina's opinion too. :) I actually found your blog the other day and have really enjoyed it so far!
