He was hott. Smoking hott. Tall enough to climb, well-versed with travel, a water and mountain enthusiast, and mysterious. He was drawn to my personality and humor and prayed it would be as lively in real life. How do I know this? He told me this multiple times, along with hoping my pictures were "accurate." I get it; no one wants to get catfished, but it doesn't stop here. He seemed to have an irrational fear that the girl he was pursuing wouldn't be "what he deserved." He revealed that the last three girls he went out with were 20 pounds heavier than their pictures. Okay... but my pictures were taken in Feb and March. Then, while on the way to the movies, after picking up our snacks per request, he called me to confirm the movie choice. Trying not to unleash my crazy before meeting him I calmly responded, "I mean... I know you already saw this movie, but you said you'd see it again because I was dying to see it! If you really..." He interrupted with, "no, I'm just making sure before I buy them." He continued the conversation, or tried to, and I told him he was cutting into my mom time and I'd talk to him when I saw him. He laughed the conversation off when I arrived, revealing his motive for such a call. "I had to make sure you didn't sound too much like a dude." "What?" I replied, "Are you serious?" I said slowly. "I know what I like, and I know what I deserve. Why would I waste either of our time?" Although this opinion held a skewed validity, it certainly put the sour in my mouth before even opening the gummy worms. Unable to hold my tongue to the blatant shallow focus, I said, "So, you were afraid I would be fat, afraid I wouldn't live up to my witty personality, and now was afraid how my voice would sound? Again, he reinforced that he knows what he deserves. I could think of a couple things he deserves oh, but he was hot, seemingly into me, and went to go see a Disney movie a second time just because I wanted to. Also, and it should be a given for anyone that has followed my blog this long, I'm hooked once they: already hint at a couple trips in the future we could embark on together. He began flirtily pushing my shoulder at jokes I made and kept his eyes more on me than the movie., at least from what I could tell the times I saw him. Quite frankly, most of the movie I didn't know he existed. Aladdin is my favorite Disney movie and I drank of every moment in that theater. Especially when he held my hand. I know that sounds simple and elementary of me, but he held my hand like he meant it. His thumb stroked the top of mine; his grip was tight, but not suffocating. I don't even know what color his eyes were. He put his arm around me and I nestled in. Near the end of the movie , spoiler alert! He looked at me and said I was pretty. Beaming like I'd imagine the moon was outside the theater, I sighed a Disney Princesses sigh. Oh, don't worry I'm not a spoiler ;)) You'll have to see Aladdin yourself. Following the movie, he divulged information about his family and what his mom was currently going through. One of my favorite things a guy can do is make himself vulnerable to me. I love learning about his past or his hardships. Emotional food for thought. It makes him relatable, it makes me purposeful because I'm empathetic and nurturing. Contrary to what some of the comments on this blog may say, it's a fact. I love being able to trust someone with things that are more than flesh. So in turn, I enjoy being that person someone can trust. He walked me to my car, all six foot four inches of him, and he kissed me. Our eyes searched the other for something at the same. He leaned in and kissed me again. Smiling, he proposed we go on an adventure, only he didn't know what. I rattled off at least six things. He squished his nose and said maybe he should head home since he has to wake up at 5 for work. "Okay," I replied. "Don't offer me an adventure and expect me to decline," I winked. "Do you want to do this again?" I pretended to think. "Of course," I said warmly smiling. "Sunday?" "Yes," I said. "I'll be free after church." "Okay, it's a date," he replied and smiled as I folded myself into my Honda Civic. Since this is going to be a two parter, all you'll need for this recipe is Oreos.
