Journaling..... Thinking about being in the right mindset to slyly flirt with H tomorrow evening when we go to dinner............First of all, I gave H the option of meeting him at restaurant or having him pick me up. He offered to pick me up at the house. Secondly, when I accepted H's invitation to dinner, I declined the first date he offered (told him I had prior plans) but was available tomorrow. I also said that he should surprise me with the restaurant he chooses,....that surprises are GOOD. Finally, last time I spent an evening with H was about 3 1/2 weeks ago. I was in a playful mood and flirted with him a bit (told him he needed to feel my firm derriere, told him I was having my main drain cleaned out the following day...that a girl needs to have her main drain cleaned out every so often, and played adult Mad Libs with him (I highly recommend this)). We ended the evening in a friendly manner calling back and forth farewells as I walked away from his car. As best I can tell this was just a few days after relationship with OW ended.
Fast forward to this week.....H showed up at the house unnanounced on Saturday afternoon to fix an electrical problem in the back yard. I just happened to be getting ready for an evening with friends, had on full make-up, wet hair, and a bathrobe. I walked out to visit with H. We ended up chatting for 30 minutes or so. The neighbor's cat was visiting (he practically lives at the house....funny) so I went into the house to grab the Halloween costume I had bought for the neighbor's cat and H and I spent about 10 minutes dressing the cat and taking photos. (It was amusing if you were there. I kept worrying that the cat would run off and show up at his owners' house later wearing the court jester outfit I had dressed him in. )
Anyway, during the course of taking photos as I was stooping to hold said cat I commented to H that he might catch 2 pu$$ies in the photo. I wonder if that registered with H because when I sent him a photo of MY kitty cat (I have a cat too, which is why the neighbor's cat visits frequently) wearing her witch costume, H replied to my e-mail with "I think the Pu$$y Party Girl shot is possibly the best one SHE's ever had".
Question to group: Could this be a sign that H is moving into flirty territory with me? We have been in firm friendship stage since June but I haven't succeeded in moving to stage 3.
