Attagirl. You know it’s the right thing to do. I’m completely new and also utterly rubbish at this, too, but the veterans on here are amazing and I’d never have got it off the ground without support from these wonderful ladies.
Not that Mr2Pugs is far off the ground. I got tipsy and said AMA (which he did last Friday, but I kept it really light, and then, bam, asked him out. Ambush!) and he wanted to know what I wanted and why him. I did not tell him his body, as I think he wants to go gently and it might scare him off (dammit!) but I did drop in a little hook here and there and….nothing. All the answers I got were about companionship and nice smiles. I’m an F cup on a small frame, and really short. He’s tall and he MUST have noticed. But nope, no mention of a great rack. Maybe he’s a leg man (although I’ve never met one that committed!). Still lots of lovely chatty texts daily. But not a sniff of anything raunchy at all.
The upshot is he doesn’t want to get married or cohabit, just companionship (well, hopefully not just….) and that’s great for me. Wild horses would not drag me down the aisle again. I also told him I am DONE with kids, just to be clear. Perhaps knowing that he’ll feel more comfortable getting, ahem, closer. We have agreed to progress to a kiss on the cheek greeting (not so calculating as it sounds. He said he felt super-awkward before, so I used my tipsy AMA to ask if he would have been comfortable with it) Progress is progress! Glacial, but still. Trust me to get the most gentlemanly man on tinder, when I’m feeling well up for it!
