I actually have a date Friday night.

[Critters2]

And he's Episcopalian, so no "boundaries issues".

1. good luck!

[Critters2]

14. Thanks! nt

[NewJeffCT]

2. good luck

Didn't the Episcopalian church just have some sort of split over accepting gays or not?

[Critters2]

7. Some diocese in Calif voted to leave the denom,

which, technically, they can't do.

The interesting thing is that this is a date with a guy. Supporting my motto-"Bi: twice as likely to have a date this weekend" (except that it usually hasn't worked out that way for me).

3. Good luck- hope all goes well!

IMHO, he must be pretty cool if he's wrangled a date with you! :thumbsup:

[Critters2]

9. Why thanks! He's nice guy.

He teaches chemistry at the local community college, and plays percussion in a couple of bands. I don't know him real well, but people who do speak well of him. He played drums for our choir at church Sunday, and asked me out during coffee hour.

I haven't had a date in a very long time.

[Critters2]

13. I'll ask! nt

[Kat45]

6. Great! Have a good time!

8. Watch out, those Episcopalians like to use tongue on the first date.

[Critters2]

10. Good to know.

I expect an Episcopalian to take me some place quite classy, first!!

[lost-in-nj]

12. HAVE FUN!!!!

hope you have a great time....

lost

[Critters2]

15. Thank you! nt

[NMDemDist2]

16. Good for you!

:hug:

just remember to keep it light and don't share your deepest darkest on the first (or 2nd or 3rd) date

have fun!

[Critters2]

17. I'm sure I'll find some way to scare him off.

It's always fun to speculate as to how I'll do it, beforehand.

[NMDemDist2]

18. watch that negative self talk

every time you start down that road, replace the though instantly with 'it will be fun to go out and get to know this guy'

[Critters2]

19. Thanks. I'll try. nt

[Richard Steele]

20. If it is "meant to be", ain't nothing gonna scare him off.

Believe me- within 2 hours of meeting her,
I told my sweetie enough of my personal history
to make 100 ordinary women run screaming into the night.

She was, instead, impressed by my honesty. Even when I told
her the stuff that -I- thought was pretty insane; stuff I
never told nobody.

8 1/2 years later, I'm crazier and more mentally impaired than ever...
but here we are, still together. :hug:
