I want to interrupt my telling of The Kyle Saga to document my interesting... how should I describe it?... Rom Com Moment.
I was at a family restaurant with my mom, dad, aunt and grandma on Sunday. The place was crowded... with middle agers and retirees. While waiting for our meals (pumpkin spice pancakes for the win) I looked around and observed, "I am the youngest person in here". At that moment I made eye contact with a young guy around my age.
"Well, maybe not" I added.
A couple of minutes later I hear a 'Hi' and I look up. The young guy is sitting at a spare chair at our eight top, and boy is he cute. I smiled confusedly.
"We may know each other," he opened "have you been on a certain dating site?" I immediately knew who he was. I don't understand how he recognized me.
"Do you mean OkCupid?" I asked to confirm my certainty. He said that he did and asked if I remember talking to a Drew.
"You're name is Pam, right?"
Drew was one of the first men I talked to when I joined OkCupid almost exactly a year ago. He wasn't interested in me, and honest about it which is nice. We said goodbye, and later he deleted his profile.
I asked him if he was still dating and he said 'no'. After a beat I asked him if he wanted my number and we exchanged numbers. Two days later we went on a date. It was great. One of the top ten dates I've been on. We had pizza at a landmark place in a town that sits midway between our respective towns. Then we listened to music in the car.
Drew is really cute. I don't understand how I am so lucky to land dates with so many extremely attractive men. I'm not going to look a gift horse in the mouth.
It's very similar to living in a romantic comedy. If I'd have to title it at this point I would choose something like "When Our Eyes Met". We'll see where this goes!
I will continue to work on telling The Kyle Saga here as time passes, and I'll and updates of my potential time with Drew. Until then, goodnight Dear Readers, and sweet dreams.
