Diving in

Today's a big day. I'm now about 39 hours into my 36 hour first real date with someone who seems to be an amazing guy. We've had such a great time that he asked me to stay another day. This will be another first, a record 68 hour first date. Am I diving in a little to deep?

I drove three hours two days ago to get here and have loved every moment. He's shown nothing but trust and kindness and respect. His guest room was ready for me in case I was more comfortable sleeping in there. He was so respectful - no expectations.The first night we watched the sun set over a lake over dinner. The next day, I met him for lunch to break up his day. When he got home from work, he took me to the fun downtown area where we wandered around before having drinks and dinner there,

No, we haven't spent the entire visit in restaurants.Since my visit is during the week, he goes to work and I work at his place. Now that shows trust. I haven't opened a single drawer or closet to snoop. I haven't even been tempted (although I snuck a look to see what cologne he wears). The first night, we talked and kissed and talked some more. Wherever we happened to be we kissed. in the car, mixing a drink, walking my friend's dog - they're all appropriate times for more kisses. And he's good at it. His sexy eyes and warm smile make me feel so comfortable and safe.

But I do need help with one point. My face is getting raw from his beard that's just a little too scratchy for all of the kissing we've been doing. Any suggestions before I'm faced with other areas that are even less forgiving?

He also has passion. He's an intense but caring lover. He's curious and wants us to get to know each others bodies, likes and dislikes to make it even more fun. And he has a super sexy little ass.

One of the things I like the most is how well he communicates. There are no games, no wondering and everything he says seems to be honest and sincere. He says communication is the most important part of a relationship - well, and good sex too. Often. We agree on both. Without these, there's no relationship. we both want to add to our firsts: snow skiing, parachuting, and maybe even flying our own plane. It might be fun to try some of these together.

I'm not sure where this will lead, but I do know I'm enjoying getting to know him. He's about a month out of a three-year relationship and this may be my first post-divorce relationship. Are either of us ready? Will I be able to handle a nice guy? What about the three-hour distance between us? There's only one way to find out. I'm not looking forward to leaving tomorrow, and I know I'll look forward to seeing him again very soon.

Love to the single girls,
