hey all,

so after having a horrible experience on an online dating site for about a year, i finally came across a profile i really liked. just when i was about to message him i noticed that he had messaged me. he was equally interested and we messaged back and forth for like a week until we decided to meet. this was the first time before an online dating site date that i was actually nervous; he seemed like a legit guy.

we met and had a really fun 3 hour coffee date. we seemed to have a nice chemistry and had a lot to things to talk about. he told me about 3 times that he thought i was beautiful and attractive and i blushed and told him i thought he was really cute and hot. he said he was looking for something serious that could lead to marriage- i was taken aback by this since at 24 and never having had a bf talk of marriage on a first date seemed REALLLY too fast. but he clarified that he wasn't looking to get married right now- just some day but that he wanted to be in a relationship that would lead to that. he asked me out for the next time and we hugged twice before parting ways.

date 2 ensued 2 days later. we met up for dinner. we walked around the mall and he asked where i wanted to eat. i brought him to this italian place and we looked at the menu outside where he said that was too pricey for him. (he is a recent grad school graduate who is temping). i quickly said that we could go to a more affordable place and went to a middle eastern place where we shared a kebob platter. we talked a lot and had a real fun time with some mild flirting going on. after about 3 hours he said he needed to get home early so he could make it to work on time, he decided to give me a ride home. it was legit storming so that was a pretty adventurous time driving back here. once parked outside my house in the pouring rain i asked if he wanted to come inside to see my place. he said he wants to wait before he takes that step. also that he knows himself and if he comes inside, he will want to kiss me. i blushed and said he could kiss me on the cheek if he wanted to.and he did. i then asked him if i could kiss him on the cheek and he says yes and i do. he says he'll text me once he gets home and kisses me on the cheek once more before i get out and run in the pouring rain inside. he texts me after an hour saying he had a wonderful time and it was so nice to feel an innocent peck. i thanked him for the amazing night and said i was excited to see him again.

its been two days since and we have been texting back and forth. he usually texts me in the morning to say hi and has been trying to help me look for internships. we have tentative plans to hang out this weekend so lets see where that goes. i think i really could like this guy and find myself thinking about him all the time. i just wanted to ask if this was all good or if i was doing anything wrong? what do you more experienced guys think?

A pretty tacky move after having asked...

Damn, poor men are just a sad picture.. Good thing some women don't mind.

Well, neither one of you appears to be 12, but whatever floats your boat...

I liked that he was honest about the Italian place being too pricey for him...instead of just saying "ok" to give the impression he could afford it when he really couldn't.

I hope this boy ends up being a real good thing for you...and you for him...Good Luck!!

Sounds great to me. I also like that he was honest and not try to show off. He is a student and it wouldn't be a good move to go into debt because of dating.

Also, sounds like he was willing to take a risk of rejection (by saying it was too pricey), so sounds like he is looking for something real.

Agreed. Sounds like a catch to me
