We're back from his work retreat thingy. Lots of fun was had!
We were the youngest, blackest people there. And it was at a resort in VA that was established in 1766
nice ass place tho. Oh, lots of the workers were black of course, serving 99% old white people, lawd. When we went to the banquet, we first sat at a table with some white people. He left to get us drinks, came back and said come on, I found some people I know. Cool. ....he ain't know them people, he just saw some black people he'd seen earlier
I asked why the lie, sway? He said what was I supposed to say? Let's go, I found some black people to sit with?
touche, sway, touche.
We had a blast at the banquet. With the black people lol. We were sitting next to this 1 black guy. Good looking guy
We were talking. Hes military. He mentions he's retired. We were both like what?! This man looked 25yrs old, tops. Had to be at least 38? I was kinda over the top in my excitement of this lmao I was nearing drunk. We kept talking to the guy, but SO had his hand rubbing my knee for the remainder of the conversation
and he was so cute with his compliments of my look all night. My dress was a hit.
Other people- women- were complimenting me on it, too. Honestly, I was a bit overdressed...or just less conservatively than everyone else lol. And dinner the night before, I had on my full length ankara print skirt. women were coming up to me like "wow! you're so pretty!" After the 3rd time where this woman ran after us "excuse me, excuse me!" to ask me why was I so pretty lmao (this 1 was white and country lol), SO was like dang when am I gonna get some compliments? I guess I'm chopped liver. You're clearly the 1 who downgraded in the relationship etc
but he would always say "I know. I got a winner
" to the woman lol.
I love the way he smells. His natural scent. It's intoxicating. And gets all over my everything
We were talking about something and drunk and post coital and he starts talking about how he's saving for my ring, etc. When we were driving back, he brought up places to move to and where I'd be willing to live and stuff.
He sometimes gets aggravated easily. I always call him out on it and he apologizes. He always says please don't think it has to do with you, he just gets aggravated easily in general. And ive seen him like that with his friends, so ok. Especially when I ask him a lot of questions about 1 mundane topic lol. I get that from my mom. She will ask who what when where, for how long?, why?, she wants to know everything about it. And I hate it
that **** is annoying. I didn't realize I did it. Ok, I did, cuz my friends get annoyed when I do it to them and tell me to stop lmao, but I still think it's interesting that new people notice lol.
That is why, while reading the 'men don't love women like you' book, I was very surprised at the chapter on him telling women to shut up on dates. I've never talked a lot on early dates, I always ask a bunch of fun, silly questions, and the men usually LOVE answering them, all animated and **** and go on and on and on. Most people love talking about themselves and I truly do enjoy listening, rather than talking. I guess what they don't know is how that translates to when we're in a relationship and the questions keep coming about more mundane things
I be interested in your life! Shoot lol
He's planned stuff for us to do this weekend and next
I had to have a maintenance guy come out to look at my washing machine. He asked me if I could reschedule for the next day, so he could be there
