About Me
Hello, my name is Jaymie. I am not one of those sappy women whose life goals and ambitions revolve around meeting Mr. Right, getting married, and making babies. But to be honest I have never been particularly good at relationships. The younger version of myself had hoped that I could get it right by now. But, I DIDNT!!!
I remain hopeful and would still like to meet a great guy that thinks the world of me and that I adore. I would still like to find my happily ever after.
I have decided to continue of the roller coaster of dating. I will go on at least one new date a month in an attempt to meet the right guy. If I don’t there will be consequences.
This challenge started in the month of August and will continue until one of two things happens a) I actually meet the right guy b) a string of terrible monthly dates makes me reconsider my stance on relationships and the idea of being the crazy cat lady becomes more appealing. Both possibilities will ensure endless humor.
Thank you for joining me on my adventure.

Date of the Month-November Sunday Night Football/Drinks
So I did manage to find my November. I met him on OKCupid. He is 31 originally from somewhere in Florida. He was in the Navy for like 8 years and has lived in quite a few different US cities. He is now in Burbank and going to film school. We emailed back and forth a bit and then he asked about meeting up for coffee or drinks. My weekends have been extremely busy lately but I have all week off for Thanksgiving so I suggested Sunday night.
He drove up to meet me and we actually arrived within minutes of each other. We hugged and I noticed he was only about 5'5 or 5'6. I seem to only be dating shorter guys. Good thing I don't usually wear high heels.
I picked this chill restaurant/bar. The restaurant has TVs set up around the room with different sports playing. I figured it would offer some entertainment but I had forgotten how loud it can get especially with Sunday Night Football. OPPS!
We ended up sitting on the patio so it wouldn't be as loud. November has brown hair and brown. He is attractive and has a really nice smile. He looks approachable and friendly. I noticed some similarities between November and one of my best guy friends which might be why I felt pretty relaxed. The date didn't have the first date interview question feel.
November is a bit sarcastic with the sense of humor where you are not sure if what is being said is truthful. I am pretty good at rolling with it so when he said something I wasn't sure was the truth I just added more detail to his story.
We talked about family, traveling, sports, family, bad dates/dating, and other countless topics. He was easy to talk to and a bit flirty. Nothing over the top but I still enjoyed the attention. The night actually passed quickly. When the bill came he picked up the check. I did offer.
We left and November walked me to my car. I love that moment right before a first kiss, when you know the other person wants to kiss you but hasn't fully initiated it. There is this excitement in the air and a tenderness about it. So November did kiss me goodnight. It was sweet.
It is actually easier to kiss someone close to your height. I guess I have to keep dating shorter guys.

ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment Kaitlin....I think that November was the most normal of all the dates of the month.
