Dating again
So, I've been officially divorced for almost 4 months, now. Yesterday was Aaron and my 2nd anniversary of when we started dating. I've been living alone for 8 months, which is almost as long as I lived with Aaron. I feel stronger and more content than I have in a long while.
I have been on dates since then, even kissed a few guys that I went out with. I have a decent friends with benefits relationship with Ricca, that works out nicely because there's no pressure for anything more than that and we only see each other ever 6 weeks or so. We got together Thanksgiving weekend. But I might be ready for something more or different.
I recently (about 6 weeks ago)started talking to Sean , who I've known as long as I've known Shannon. He and I ran around together in HS. He used to take me to school my senior year on his motorcycle (he had graduated 2 years before.) We used to go out drinking when I was in my early 20's. We always had a good time together. We even made out a few times over the years. It never came to anything.
I am being reminded how much I enjoy his company. We are finding we have TONS in common. He's nice to have around. I thought that was all it was, until last Sat night. We went out again to the Wine Bar, chatted for hours, closed down the bar, but nothing happened at the bar, not even hand holding. We decided food would be good and went to Sonic. Got food, then hit a drive through liquor store for some Mike's Hard. Drove out the the desert (like we used to do back in the day) Had a few drink and bullshitted.
Again, I didn't think anything until he kissed me. So here we are date 3 and he finally kisses me, and MAN what a kiss! He had my head swimming. *swoon*
We've gone out twice since. It has progressed physically, but we still haven't had sex. Not that I don't want to, but he works me into a tizzy, and tells me I get a little more next time. *double swoon* We talk all the time. Spend hours texting every night. I'm all twitterpaited. I can't stop smiling.
Is this what normal dating is like? Don't think I've ever done it. I like it! *contented sigh* This is really nice.
