Wow. Wasn't expecting that so soon...

As you may or may not know, I decided to get back on the online dating websites. I've gotten some winks and some messages... but most are from guys too far away, too old or just not my type. However, it was nice and a bit of a confidence booster.

But then, this guy winked at me. He was cute, tall, seemed to be a close to my type. So, I winked back. He went back through my profile, found my hint about my xanga and messaged me. I emailed him back, and now we're instant messaging.

So far, so good. He's a bit on the eager side, so I'll have to be careful. But, he seems nice enough.

I just wasn't expecting to start talking and flirting with someone so fast. I've only been on the site for a few days.

Well, I'm going back to chatting. And reminding myself to stay calm.

I'm going to be very, very careful. I like my life and don't wish to see it ended abruptly or harmed in any way.

However, I'm really enjoying the flirting.

If not for flirting, why date?

You sell yourself short, SHE. I've a feeling you would probably place among the top ten percent of available prospects on most online date sites, and you'd be a very good partner for a guy who's not intimidated by intelligence and a somewhat odd sense of humour

Congrats. Hope it goes well.

Some guys are for real.  The trouble is finding them.  Have fun, and good luck!

Jythier -- good point...

Gideon -- thanks for that. It means a lot coming from you, especially since I know you didn't have to write anything at all.

Doc -- you're right. I know the good ones are still out there. I'm not that jaded yet.

singrdave -- unfortunately, the liars and sickos don't label themselves very well. If only we could make them wear signs... but I am keeping a watchful eye out.

No, that would be Silver & Jade tears. You are just an elf.
