I know I like a guy when . . .

My three-day first date ended yesterday, and it was a blast. I know I like him. Really. And it's a different kind of like than I've felt before. I'm not just curious what it would be like to have sex with him. I'm not in need of companionship, nor am I desperate to date someone. And I know I'm not bored.

1. This one is simple. It's logistics and time. I drove three hours to see him. The last few weeks have been pure chaos and I really didn't have time for the trip, but I needed it. We needed it. After we met a couple of weeks ago, there were so many sparks that we just had to see each other again, and it needed to be soon. With his schedule and mine, we didn't know when the next chance would be, so we just did it.

2. He made me feel welcome, in the most warm and unselfish way. From the moment I arrived, he made sure I had what I needed. He met me at the gate to get my car in then moved his truck to make a closer spot for my car, and his place was clean and very neat. And best of all, he never said anything that seemed like my visit was a bother or inconvenient for him. Even though he told me numerous times, he didn't have to - I knew he sincerely wanted me there.

3. I had just as much fun sitting on his sofa talking as I did when we were out at a restaurant. And he planned two amazing evenings out - one watching the sun set over the lake and the other exploring the cool downtown area of the city. We never tripped on each other's words nor did we have a lull in conversation. We talked about our work, hobbies, passions, life - even religion and politics. We're right there in sync on it all. The last night we bought some groceries and cooked in. I played bartender (not very well) while he cooked. We truly enjoyed each other's company.

4.  He never pushed me to do anything. From what we did in the evening to where I would sleep, he was cool with anything. I didn't know yet if I'd be ready to share his bed on the first night. It all goes back to being afraid of feeling vulnerable. He has such amazing sex appeal that I couldn't wait to explore his body. While I hope we can stretch those intimate moments to last longer and have even more of them, he was a caring and passionate lover. Our bodies and rhythms fit, and I want more.

5. With all of the conversation and intimacy, I was comfortable and not vulnerable. I don't often have a difficult time opening up to someone, but sometimes I regret it. I feel vulnerable. Like I've shared too much. Like they might use it against me. He was never like that. Communication is important to him, and we talked about how we felt about our visit - what we expected and how we felt as the three-day first date was getting close to ending.

6. Now that I've been home for a day, I miss him but I don't feel frantic. Before I left, he shared that he really hoped I would like him but wasn't sure I would make the trip up. I told him indeed did like him - his sex appeal, his friendly, fun nature, and the fact that he's just so nice. I told him more than once that he was spoiling me - I don't know how to act around the nice ones. We agreed that we looked forward to getting to know each other even better.

And I hope we do. Soon.

Love to the single girls,
Addison
