swing for life

I once joined a variety of dating services to try to get all aspects of all the ways you could date. I tried online dating, I tried speed dating, I tried the bar scene. I had a fling here and a fling there but nothing really serious came up. To be honest none of those girls excited me. Then Jamie came along.

It's hard for me to even believe that I met her online. She seemed like a really care free woman. She liked going on roller coasters, and all those crazy exciting rides that make your heart pump. I was attracted to her right away. When we first met we went to a theme park naturally. She greeted me with a simple hug. We went on four roller coasters, and we went on at least fifty rides that would have made me spew my lunch if I had eaten lunch. But the most exciting thing that day was hanging with Jamie. Something was incredibly different with her. I felt totally nervous and self conscious about myself around her. But at the same time, she was so easy going, I felt like I could really be myself.

At the end of the date, I asked her if she wanted to hang out again. There was some tension, a hint of hesitation, before she punches me on the shoulder and said she'd love to, and how she liked how exciting I was. I was thrilled to hear this. I went in to kiss her goodbye, and was greeted by her arms quickly embracing me in a hug before she ran away.

A hug? None of the other girls had just given me a hug. Did all she want was to be friends? I was bunches nervous, so the next date I asked her on was to dinner on a boat to ensure I wanted to be romantically in her life and more then just a friend or a fling. She seemed hesitant, wanting something more exciting, but then I said I'd push her off deck and she was all for it. Crazy lady. I asked her out, and now we have been dating for over a year. I couldn't be happier.
