There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. (1 John 4:18 NIV)
From today's devotional. Picking my heart up and trudging forward. Online dating? Idk.
Co-worker, who started flirting last spring, has shown interest and has stepped it up a few levels. We hung out at our Christmas party last week and had our first date Thursday. Great times, good conversation, and older than me which is preferred. Just trying to wrap my head around 2 kids, 5 and 8, and because they're with him this weekend i probably won't hear from him. I'm trying to not let the kids be the deal breaker but I've been stepmom before and...:-/
2nd new guy, Professor, is an hour away. Our first date, we met in the middle and he went all out with the expensive restaurant. Good conversation but I can tell he's just as busy as I am. Our next meeting is scheduled for tomorrow. He wants me to travel there but I don't know about that just yet, unless we're going to take turns 'cuz gas ain't cheap. Maybe I'll ask about gas. Closed mouths don't get fed right? I know an hour isn't that far. It's a lot closer than the 10 hours between me and Smoke. But I'm not sure if I want Professor to come here yet and that may be next in the sequence. I'm older than him by a few months but he has no kids, also works in Education, and is completing his Doctorate. And he's sexy!
Wish I could fast forward past the first impressions. Both are good.
9 pm Smoke finally apologized. Whoop dee doo.
