a man for mel?
I met a boy too... Well, this one is actually a man. He is 30. That's right, 30 years old. He's my co-worker's cousin and I think I've got a little crush. Last weekend, I went to his 30th birthday party with my friend, who had no intention of trying to fix me up with her cousin, but then we just hit it off. Some stats: cute, smart, funny, nice family, gainfully employed (computer guy of some sort), owns his home, dresses well, pretty clean cut but not conservative, in fact, he's a Democrat.
Anyway, it was a fun party, lots of drinking, flip-cup tournaments, just an all around great time. We talked a good bit, flirted some, but when I left, he didn't ask for my number. Maybe because it was in front of basically his whole family. Well, he emailed my co-worker Monday morning that he had a great time, thanks for coming, etc. This is significant because she said he has never emailed her before in their lives and her hunch was that he was interested in me. Well, long story short, she invited him to come out with us (a bunch of teacher folk) this past Saturday and he came along! So we hung out pretty much the whole night and really had fun together. BUT at the end of the night, still no numbers exchanged. (yes, I know I could've asked for his, but I suppose I'm being a little old-fashioned.) However, he did gleen my email from his communication with his cousin, since we work together, and he emailed me this morning. So we have been emailing back and forth today. I guess we'll see how things progress. Things are definitely moving slowly, which I guess is fine with me, I just hope it keeps moving. The email thing will definitely get old. Who knows, maybe with this approach he can sneak up on me somehow so that I won't get freaked out and back off... one can only hope.
