What the hell?

The universe has decided to pee on me. After 6 months of not communicating with the redneck I have finally thrown myself out into the dating world and have made an attempt to move on. First move was to sign up for online dating. I'm on Match and EHarmony. I've gotten some pretty interesting feedback. A lot of winks from a lot of old men, which creeps me out. I found out that even though it may be bad to be rejected, but it's even worse if you're rejected by someone you didn't even like to begin with.

I have had a few prospects and actually did meet someone this past weekend. I had a great time. He was really nice and I absolutely had a positive first time on-line dating experience with him. We are definitely into the same things (computers and technology). He's very passionate about music. I was obviously nervous. I figured I would only be out with him for a couple of hours but we were out for about 4-5 hours. I do have a nickname for him and it's The Beav.

So, we got together that following Wednesday night at Carroll Street. Had a good time. The subject of his ex wife did come up more than usual. He gave me her blog address. He basically said that if I want to know what happened between them then I can read her blog. I didn't want to do that, but curiosity got a hold of me and I did. Actually, I printed out her blog and passed it around at work for everyone to read and to judge. We all came to the conclusion that there is still a lot of emotion still there. A lot of unresolved feelings towards each other. And I read his myspace page and he actually wrote a letter to his ex and I don't even know if I really want to get into all of this. Plus the fact that they have 2 beautiful kids together. It's just a little too much at once.

I do like him. And I was so happy after our first date. I don't know what to do... dating is so freakin' hard!!! Do I try and start to invest in this? Or should I just move on to the next online guy and see how that goes?
