Dating

THE HUNT IS ON...


ive been out last afternoon for a lunch date. ok. thats not the typical date --- the point there is, ive been out to meet new people, this date is long over due and this guy started asking me out 7 months ago, and i could barely say yes. im so into doing something else and dating isnt listed on the priorities. so, i said yes to him the day before yesterday. we planned to see each other and talk. just talk, he asked for a dinner date but i hesitated, it would be more gleeful if it would be lunch, he was so insistent of going in our place to meet my family --- nice, but i was really hesitant. weve been talking and sending messages through SMS for the past months and im cool with that, but i barely know him. i dont just bring someone at home and ask my folks to talk to him (but im sure he'll be entertained by my nephews)

anyway...

we saw each other in the mall since it was 3 in the afternoon, had a decent chat and walked around the city to kill time. we went to a catholic cathedral and prayed (nice way to kill time eh?)

the night is slowly coming near and i dont know how to bid goodbye --- and he was again asking for my address so he could come and see me anytime he wants. and i was like, ahhmmm.. secret? and started laughing. that was close though.

hours later ---

he asked again if it would be possible if he could come in my place and see my family and i said, ok. c'mon up!

i brought him in my place and i let him meet my family (nanay, ate jing2, blix, ram --- and the rest). we talked about everything until 9:30 in the evening, then i faked a yawn. that would signal him that im sleepy. so he bid goodbye and i walk him out on the front gate.


THE SENSATIONAL TRUTH

late this afternoon, i was with my family, gathered around our dining table, we talked about my recent date, my sister knew him since he was a friend of a friend and she was fine with it, not until my sister met him. while having our usual chit chats, i find it amusing that we talked wbout him for a couple of minutes and laughing about the idea of going out. they were asking me if he is my boyfriend but i said he is not. because he is not my boy friend and thats the truth.

by my sisters' and nanay's reaction, i even doubt if he would have a fat chance of becoming one.


one date down... few more to go :)
