Hot or not?
Tonight's date (yeah, I am home before 9:00, that right there is telling...) was cute in person, and the right height for me. (I swear every short guy on the site e-mails me just because I am shorter!) His pics were cuter, but still, I was not disappointed in his looks.
Our e-mails back and forth were funny and sassy. But, my first clue to tonight should have been talking on the phone. He was a man of few words and appeared to really struggle to have conversation. Not this he isn't intellectually capable, but that he is shy on the phone and not a big conversationalist.
When we met for dinner tonight, (Dear WW friends, I had smoked chicken salad and a fruit plate, thank you very much), he was extremely tough to get talking. I really had to work to get any conversation going. Once I asked a question he was interested in, he was fine. He thought I was funny, I could tell--and I am pretty damn funny--although it isn't always conveyed very well in this blog--but he just isn't a talker.
He is going out of town for 3 weeks Wednesday. He said we'd get together when he got back. I won't be surprised either way.
I swear I am going to make Frankenboyfriend and mix and match all of the various things about guys I go on dates with to make what would be the perfect man for me! (He can keep his beautiful long-lashed eyes and he love of sports and dogs. His smile was cute, but I may hold out for better.)
I may have to blog sometime of the various parts I am taking from various boys.

I am pretty much the same way. I can 'talk' a lot on the computer but once I meet someone face to face, I get shy. I think the being able to hide behind the computer and being able to think my words over before I say them, is what keeps me going online.
But, once I get past the first few times, I can yak up a storm.
I think maybe he was just shy.

I know people like that, too - can even be a little but like that, myself!

My dad is one of the most quiet men I know, yet he is my hero and has a very funny, witty, dry sense of humor.
The lack of communication just made me wonder if he was interested of not.
I haven't heard from him since, however, as I said, he is going to be out of town for 3 weeks, AND he hasn't been on that dating site since our date.
We shall see.
