KdogGS' Journey Part Trece

[KdogGS]

Did you meet the date on a dating site? If so, what did you put as your R status? Are you going into this R, no matter how casual, honestly, respectfully?

Who is KdoGS?

We did meet on a social site called okcupid, it's not strictly for dating. I have what I'm looking for as "friends" and the other options include short term dating, long term dating and casual sex. The law here states after 60 days of filing, it's permissible to date while the divorce is being finalized. I don't feel meeting up for coffee is adultery, but I would definitely have to disclose more information if she indeed wants to meet up again.

As far as who I am, I am a recovered alcoholic who brings a lot to the table in my friendships and relationships. I am a cook, a father to a wonderful furry daughter named Kahlua who I treat like my child. I am there for my friends and family when they need me. I am financially responsible and care for myself. I am kind to others, and listen when people talk. I try to take interest in whatever they want to talk about, even if it's not something I have a clue about. For example, I just got a haircut, and the woman and I could not have been less alike. But she mentioned being in school, so I got her talking about her future career designing role playing video games. I am spiritual and have morals and beliefs. I know that there are things I cannot control, and I have made a conscious decision to turn most of my problems over to my Higher Power, because parts of my life are unmanageable by myself.

I moved to this city and left my old job to have time for family. To have a better work life balance. To start and raise a family. None of those goals have changed. The person I may have to achieve those goals with has changed, but the goals remain. That is who KdogGS is. I'm not saying this will always be who I am, we all change over time. But I plan to do nothing but mature as a person and become the best KdogGS I can possibly be.
