There’s a madwoman at the wheel

Ha yes! ^.^ Oh the depths of my closet, those poor poor depths. They will be plundered.

Go with what you like don't try to double guess what she may like.
You want to show her who you are, not some fiction that will fall apart later.

The day I met my late wife I had shaved off my beard that morning but still had my moustache.
It turns out she hated beards and did not like moustaches much better.
We arrange to meet again that evening in the same coffee house.
as it seems that apart from the moustache we got on very well. Not that she mentioned the dreaded moustache at all.
It had looked fine with the beard but was rubbish without.
I cleaned up a little and shaved off the Moustache.
the rest is history.
You never know how people will respond.....

It is not that I was needy in any way, as I had to quickly end three other girl friends that I had been dating up to that point. Exclusive dating was unusual in the 50's.

I agree that you never know. I was talking to a friend once, and they told me that I was being too nice to women on dating sites, was why I was getting rejected at the time. I said, you can't just be rude to people. He said, be assertive - try it. So I was mad at my friend, and trying to prove a point, so I messaged a girl on a dating site and said, "You and I should go on a date. We can share a Lunchables." The girl started asking all kinds of questions about the Lunchables, and it got me a couple of dates.

Oh I'm not afraid to do that. I went in retro last time.

I very much have the mindset of "take me or leave me." She took me.

Also thank you for the good advice though ^.^

I think exclusive dating is less common these days as well for many people. I have a roommate that is currently dating a few.

I'm still struggling with this, and I should clarify that I'm not nervous about one date or even this (admittedly very awesome) one person. None of it is about that, it's about making the decision to date at all, I've been a loner for so long that it's all I know.

I feel emotional, I feel vulnerable, I sound like a broken record but maybe I should seriously consider talking to a professional if this keeps up after my date tomorrow. I don't like feeling delicate. I don't feel sad. Just... maybe it's that I feel long-buried things about making this change.

I don't need advice or anything. I just needed to type words at a screen. I'll seek help if I still feel uncomfortable after the next couple of weeks.

I might wear a dress tonight, so I guess you can say things are getting pretty serious. :sweatsmile:
(We’re going to a speakeasy bar. Game night cancelled beforehand, so dinner first.)

I swear I’m going to steal her comforter. I’m struggling so hard to wake up right now, she’s already up and about and this bed and comforter are the most comfortable things in existence.

Yes, it was fun! I’ll probably journal later. I’ve since napped and now I’m going to head out with some friendos. Who were all very worried that I didn’t check in with my roommates last night lmao.

My friends are very protective of me if I don’t show back up because of my aphonia. I woke up to 22 messages of various amounts of “hey you never came home are you alright?!” and people that put 2 and 2 together teasing me. I <3 my friends.
