It reminded me of when you offered to pick me up to go to your son's show (a comparable amount of time going way out of your way). I felt uncomfortable. I can only describe feeling it as 'too much'. Even though I'd met you. Even though you're a nice guy. I wouldn't expect that from a long time friend unless it was really really important. A husband.. I'd meet him there.
You are delightfully who you are, gallant, sweeping gestures without a second thought. Allow yourself space. Stay away from the house for the first three to seven dates. Meet halfway or in the vicinity of the date's domicile/work place. Even if it's their idea to go to your home. Well.. you know what I mean.
Getting back into the game is about where you are, what your boundaries are.
Advice is free.. and consider the source... the non dating, plate full muchacha.
