I’m not dating, yet.
Ya’ll…..Not I met someone. I’ve only been knowing him for like a month but so far so good. But I won't get too much into it just yet. It’s way too new. Like haven't even had a first date or hung out yet. He lives out of state and we met at a coffee shop while he was in town for work. And when he comes back to Atlanta, I would just be coming back from Houston. And I already made plans with my girls when I touchdown. Plus I can’t be too available, right? He’ll be back again soon though. ;)
Anyway, In this short month I’ve realized it’s been longer than I thought since I’ve talked to a man and my game is rusty. I used to never think twice about what to text back or what to say next. Now I’m over here asking my sister like “girl he said this, what should I reply back?" Like girllll lock in and get in the field!
Would I be ok if this doesn't go anywhere? Ofc. But can I see it being something? Most definitely. But that’s just between us lol. I’m not even letting my friends in on this until I’ve gathered more information and have more confirmations. They not about to be out here thinking I’m delusional.
What I want to know from y'all is, are the girls dating!? Like what is it looking like out there for yall? Any tips for someone who is just getting back into dating after years? I know there will be some major changes from when I previously dated because I’m in Christ now. Like I’m even thinking that dates at night are a little too intimate and tempting lol. Like I don't even want the dinner and candles. Let’s go walk the beltline, get a smoothie and call it a day lol. Certain things are just a no for me now.
What I’m not falling for when first meeting someone:
Dinner dates
Bible study
Praying together
Telling your whole life story on the first date
Waiting for him to hit you up first
Kissing on the first date
Going over each other’s homes to hang out
Not dating to marry
Believing that the Lord doesn’t already know your desires so you have to settle or lower standards
Went to Houston for a wedding and it was beautiful <3
