and it went a lot better. he said he wanted to get to know me. WHOA. big difference one. he picked me up at 2:30 and dropped me off at the dorm at 6:30. so, good day. we walked around Moda and Kadikoy, there is a beautiful park next to the sea and we walked up and down it, ate fresh fish sandwiches (score), drove to the top of a mountain with a beautiful view and just talked. again, it was so nice to ride in a car on the highway. it's the little things you miss really.

he doesn't smoke, or drink. he loves his mother. he kisses me on my hands, and doesn't think i smoke too much. he bought a rose from a lady, not because i wanted one, but because he had compassion for her. so i kept it.
and everything about me, my bracelets, my shoes, the necklace carolyn made me...he was so interested to know the stories behind them. and all day we just talked. he held my hand a lot, and i let him. he loves children. and he is so worried about me being alone, or even crossing the road...
am i being a total bitch to go out with him when i know this isn't a man i could fall in love with?
he's so nice, but i think we'd be great friends.
dating...ehh...we'll see.
but he pays for EVERYTHING...ala ala
and it's sunday already? yeah, didn't know that either.
