I was supposed to be spending my weekend enjoying my new man. He's finally off work, I worked hard all week to be able to take some time away for fun, he leaves next week on vacation for a couple weeks........... And, I get strep. Honestly, I had to get sick NOW? The universe smacks me down again. Nope, Shasta just can't have some good clean fun in her life. Stuck at home writing content about mold remediation. FML. While I realize in the giant scheme of life, it's just one of those things and a couple weeks will pass and all that. It's just so dang frustrating.

Huh, just when I thought I got the Thai food reference it changes on me. My mental image of Thai food was that it isn't exactly "clean" fun...

On the bright side, congratulations on the new man! You deserve to have some fun.

@southernsusana, if you're bored, there's an FML website. It's a pity party.
@workingshasta, I hope you feel better soon.

Didn't you just go out with this guy for the first time last weekend. You guys smashed on the first date and now you are spending weekends together? That's awful fast, don't you think? One of you might be a stage 4 clinger and the other may just be in for the Thai food. What's wrong with taking your time to get to know each other? Since you refer to him as your man instead of FWB, I assume you have decided to be exclusive after one date..?

IIRC, he is a longtime friend and they recently decided to take it to the next level. And when a guy spends the whole day texting you what he is going to do to you, that isn't a 'first date'.

No. She said they are FB friends for a while. Not that they were anything more. And he messages her one day to ask her out. She said they only talked for a week prior. For something like two years before she was in some Internet relationship with some guy she wanted to sell her house and move closer to. And if you have to go through letting someone know where you will be for safety, the person you are meeting isn't a long time friend. ymam.proboards.com/thread/46128/date-tonightAnd you are right, some guy texting you all week about banging you isn't a first date. I was referring to the stargazing outing that had a happy ending. Very soon for someone who you aren't even very good friends with that you have to let someone know where to find you.

I'll have to agree with andi9899 and add that if this wasn't Shasta's first date after her husband died, it is close.
But Shasta is a big girl. If she ends up happy, great. If she ends up hurt, we are here.
Good luck, Shasta. I hope she does end up happy. I just worry about her getting hurt or too involved with someone so soon. People put their best face forward in the beginning. I don't want her too invested if he changes. She seems to jump into things with both feet. I know she's happy right now, I want her to stay that way.

I remember the date thread, must have glossed over the "FB friends" part of it, and just read that they had been friends for a while. Anyways...shasta is an adult in her 40s, she doesn't need someone going all 'overprotective mom' on her. If she is moving too quickly and ends up hurt, she ends up hurt, and can use it as a lesson for next time. Or maybe this is real and it works out, you never know.

I just know that I wish I would have listened some times when friends have pointed something out. Not just romantic relationship wise, but other things as well. And I am a mama bear. It's in my blood.

Geesus people. LOL I have learned something from this experience, as I try to from all of the things that happen in my life. In this instance, I learned that good sex is no longer on the "optional" list for a relationship. I am also very protective of my life and my happiness. I think about that a lot. Does he have the potentially to emotionally hurt me, of course. Am I willing to be that vulnerable with him? I don't know. This situation is new to me and for now we are friends and it's fun. I don't have any unrealistic expectations. I do have standards and a couple non-negotiables in life. He meets those ultimately, or he doesn't and we had a good time along the way.

Science guy and I were friends for the last couple years. In the last month or two before he freaked out, we were talking about having a romantic relationship and him coming here on vacation to see how that went. I was trying to decide if it was worth it to start a relationship with someone who lived where I didn't particularly want to ever live. I still don't know what happened, nor do I care at this point. He proved he had the ability to be a complete ass. No reason to ask questions about it. A couple weeks later, random online friend that lives down the road asked me if I wanted to go out. We have been friends online for a long time and have had some prior chats about mutual interests. We'd talked about hanging out, just never had. He said he enjoys my sense of independence and all of the adventures I take into the woods. I've always liked the things he posts, and so we found we have a lot in common. He isn't a weirdo, or scary, or a clinger, and neither am I. But, well, when you meet someone you are really attracted to, who seems really attracted to you as well, and you haven't had a man for well over a decade, sorry I'm taking the opportunity and enjoying it. I can still count the number of my sexual partners on a single hand. Not many people today can say the same. So, I refuse to feel slutty. LOL

Fwiw, I don't see anything wrong with you having fun with someone you enjoy. Thai food and all. ETA: that was supposed to be "slutty". I get really tired of babysitting this stupid autocorrect.

I think that's what made my encounter so disappointing too. Old Dude was large and in charge. Then to go to the micro penis guy was like "really?"

Yeah, the guy who fought with his roommate was also large and in charge... and then the next guy may as well have been a woman. So more like wondering what I did to deserve that.
