My date last night

[blackkitty]

It was nice. He's really nice. He brought me flowers and even brought a little present for my son (just some Legos). I didn't have to worry about what to talk about because he is definitely a talker. And a bit of an oversharer but I guess at least I know what is on his mind (that's what my mom and MCC both said at least! LOL) and he seems really genuine and not a game player. And he's not an alcoholic which is nice too. Nor does he smoke pot or break other miscellaneous laws that I know of.

He's really cute too, and has the build that I like and he's a firefighter which of course is hot (haha see what I did there) but I am trying not to focus on physical and superficial stuff.

We're going out again tomorrow night!

Oh yay! More importantly, what did you eat?

Ha, we went out for steak and I had a NY strip, sweet potato and veggies. No bread or booze! And then we had a piece of cake at my house (leftover from my son's bd - I have to get rid of that cake!!)

[Lauren88]

Yay!! I'm so glad you had a great date! How did you meet him? Was it online, if so do you have a pic?

What are you guys doing tomorrow night?

[usedtobebear]

Sounds promising, I love firefighters!! Hope tomorrow night is fun too!

[udscoobychick]

Nice!

[turtle1120]

I'm glad you had a good time.

But the present for your son? I get that he was trying to be nice, but what are you supposed to do? Tell your son it's from a guy who he's never met that you went on one date with? He has a kid. He should understand that his nice gesture is on the weird side.

He actually met my son, as my son was at my sister's house the night I met him there.
But I didn't tell my son that it was from him. Because yea, it was a little weird but his intentions were good.

He is a friend of my brother in laws, I met him at their house on Saturday night. He is on match.com though, if you are on there I can PM you his username.

And tomorrow night he's going to take me to my favorite restaurant. Not sure what we are going to do after though, I'll have to think of something. He told me he's not much of a planner.

I'm glad it went well!! You deserve an awesome guy!

[prettyinpearls]

I'm glad it went well for you!

Not sure what the 24/48 is... he does 24 on 24 off, repeat, then four days off, then repeat again I think. He's off until Sunday now and he said he only works 10 (24) hour days a month

[heyney]

Yay for you BK !! BTW, my fireman is all kinds of delish too!

PIP-Hes on the 5/6 schedule

Even with meeting your son once, it's a little weird.

Sounds like a really nice date!

24/48 just means they work 1 day and are off for 2. That's my FF's schedule and I freaking LOVE it. He can take one day of vacation and have 5 whole days off. But, he usually does exchange's w/ other FF's before using vacation.

I don't think it's weird. I think it is a nice gesture and a way for him to show that he wants to include her son.

I'm betting he doesn't have kids and doesn't know that you don't typically introduce them to men you are dating early on. I remember dating a single dad when I was younger and by our third date I was wanting to take his daughter out (like to Dave and Busters or something) and he was all "uhhh, no." I didn't get it then and just wanted him to know I wanted to include his daughter if we stayed together.
