Perhaps it's a case of being careful what you ask for. Because if I recall. If I recall correctly. It was me. Recently talking about how I want dates to take me "out to do fun things". And it was also me. Lamenting against boys who "a. kiss me in public" and "b. pounce way too soon." And here I am. Getting exactly what I asked for. Trucker Joe. Taking me on active dates. Not kissing in public. No pouncing. So the weekend passes in fabulous fashion and Tuesday arrives. Trucker Joe and I have our 3rd date.
Detour.
This is my first 3rd date since I started this rollercoaster of awesome sauce where I am the SHE in the scenario of the Somethings She Dated. Just Sayin'. Take notes. This will be on the exam.
Back on Track.
I have dually noted all the advice about him likely being shy and how I should just make the move. So we meet and I hop into his big truck again. And we're off to the driving range. It's hot. The temperature I mean. It's so fucking hot and humid that I swear my shins are sweating. And by swear I mean. I look down and there actually fucking sweating. Okay. More likely it's a combo of moisturizing and fucking humidity (it's hot and the ocean is moments away. Just Sayin'). Oh and here's some more awesome. Turns out. You (and by you I mean me) sweat a lot when hitting golf balls. All that bending over and trying not to show your goodies and thank god you wore shorts under your mini skirt and why are you wearing a mini skirt to hit golf balls? and its because nothing fits with all the weightloss and fuck he's seen the rest of your outfits that do fit and keeping your boobs in your bra and putting the ball on the tee and trying to look cute and hitting the ball and trying not to be a total spazz. That shit takes effort. I mean like excuse yourself to go to the loo and towel off effort. But here's the redeemer. He's sweating too. But in a very manly sexy way. And well. He appears to not even notice my sweat. Whether because he's a gentleman or just thinks I'm sexy doing whatever. Doesn't matter. Because it's awesome.
And PS...I'm not so great at golf. Putting balls in my mouth? sure. I'm a rockstar. But whacking balls in a straight line hundreds of metres away. hmm. not so much. But this works out perfectly because I was planning to be all could you show me how and aren't I demure and cute and teach me something instructor hottie ooh just like this? So I didn't even have to fake it. Because I needed the instruction. Apparently my boobs will be preventing me from becoming Tiger's newest competition (and aid me in becoming his newest conquest...jokes). But I'm not going to lie. I'm glad he was noticing. Score one for he's attracted to me and is just shy.
Golf is over. He suggests coffee. And I know you're probably thinking. Why not drinks? Because I haven't sipped the sauce in going on 2 years and 8 months now. That's why. We get coffee. I make no reach for the wallet. I made no reach earlier at the driving range. I'm not going to lie. At $45 for a pedi, cost of makeup, hair products, perfume, shaving, waxing, special underoos, expensive lip gloss, and the fact that I'm likely (TMI WARNING) to put his dick in my mouth long before I let him put my lady bits in his. And I think I deserve at least a couple coffees. Just Sayin'. I mean shit. I'm not buying Gin, Water, Limes.
The thing is though. Starbucks is closing. It's only 830pm. Guess we chose the wrong one. But no biggie. We sit outside. And for those in the White Rock area. Go ahead and leave your doors unlocked. Clearly not a high crime area. They leave the patio furniture out. Unlocked. All night long. Bizarre. Anyways. We sit and chat for like 2 hours. It's cute. It's adorable. It's interesting. I have my legs positioned in the sexiest (read slimmest and most toned) viewing angle the whole time. Just Sayin'.
But then the mosquitoes come. So we leave. Back to my car. And that's when...
Wait for it.
Wait for it.
Nope...Still wait for it.
We hug. Shut The Fuck Up?!!?! I hear you say. And I know. I sat there. Thinking. Do it. Do it. Fucking lean over and kiss him. Hold his hand. Fuck. Do. Something. DO. Something. Do SOMETHING!
But alas. I'm chicken shit. And it became abundantly clear that I am inexperienced in the laying of the mac down. Here I thought I was a pro. But maybe I was drunk. Or maybe I've just never really done it before (which seems most likely). But the boys just always beat me to the punch. I've never needed to. I think ever. So I get in my car. And drive home. An awesome date. But no kiss. no kiss. no kiss. seriously? no kiss.
To Be Continued...In Part Two...Ask and Ye Shall Recieve (Eventually) Part Deux




Interesting... I think he's just shy and obviously you are shy (who knew?). Perhaps get drinks instead of coffee next time... you can sip your diet Coke, just make sure HE gets a few beers in him :)
ReplyDelete4th date there better be a kiss, cos by the 6th or 7th date he is putting out whether he wants to or not! lol
ReplyDeleteI always and I mean ALWAYS take my dates to the driving range! Yes you sweat, but men do like to know you're not a complete spazzy diva about not looking 100% all-the-time.. Brownie Points for you, I'm sure it was a test.
Wow two years without the sauce. Kudos!
Friendly tip - Always have a change of clothes and shoes in the truck of your car all year round, for those occasions where he wants to do something active and you're not dressed for it... Excuse yourself tell him you'll be right back = tada!!!! I'm ready! It will knock his socks off! I promise!
Good on your for not pouncing, follow his lead. But seriously 4th date-ish there should be something.
Good luck & Great post!
~Just Sayin....
It is time for you to grab the boy by the balls and kiss him already!
ReplyDeleteand this little gem "Putting balls in my mouth? sure. I'm a rockstar. " Literally sent me into a LOL fit. Everyone in the house just looked at me like im a nut case
You, my dear, are a patient person. Although without alcohol, I'm sure a lot of my kisses would not happen as quickly as they did. 4th date the charm! I think a more romantic, intimate, night time date will set the mood!
ReplyDeleteI have only experienced this no kissing thing once, and I am clearly not as patient as you! At the end of the 3rd date I literally asked him, "So will you kiss me before you go?" And he did! He.
ReplyDeleteWanderlusting: Who knew is right eh? lol I think it depends on the situation...sometimes I'm balls out...sometimes I'm meek like a mouse...but don't worry...I man up (sort of) soon.
ReplyDeleteJust Sayin': I love the idea about the change of clothes...that's friggin brilliant...I'm totally doing that from now on! 4th-dateish you say? interesting *wink wink*
Rain: lol hearing that made my day...I heart making people laugh...especially when it's just me...being me :P
Diana: Don't worry I'm thinking at some point I will make your earlier prophecy come true and get him drunk so I can seduce him in the back of his pickup truck while camping...just sayin'
Life: Wow...I'm not sure anyone has EVER been able to classify me as patient (holy shit I think I'm growing as a person!)...but seriously...wait for part two :P turns out I couldn't completely wait either
Gahh!! How dare you make us wait for Part 2!! :)
ReplyDeleteI am thinking of one boyfriend who took forever to give me the first kiss. I think I just called him on it eventually, and he did. That led to some wonderful other physical activity. I think his excuse was being respectful and very laidback, but I also think he had a lot of stress going on so he had some depression he was fighting.
ReplyDeleteWho knows what Trucker Joe's deal is? Nothing wrong with taking the lead in this kind of situation.
Shit! I read these posts in the wrong order. I completely ruined the ending for myself.
ReplyDeleteOh well, still good stuff. Loving Trucker Joe - more please!
:)
qwithouttheu: lol...so you can imagine my suffering in waiting for him then :)
ReplyDeletesingleinmy30s: true enough...to think...I'm could be so well respected :P I love it!
thesinglefilez: oh no! lol...and trust me I'm dying to give you guys more...I swear more coming very soon!
