Thanks KML. I’ve been reading along about Ginger’s online dating adventures and decided to share my own. I’ve got a good one.

So, I shut down my match profile about a month ago. It was too much soooooo last week I downloaded Bumble. One guy, we will call him J asked me to meet for a drink. He’s 40. He asks if his age bothers me. I say the bigger question is does my age bother you? He laughs. If I have not pointed this out, the men that are interested in me are never married, no kids and work out 2 hours a day. Good. For. Them. Anyway, we meet. He played college football, is cute, funny and seems normal. I like to keep my initial dates to 2 hours or less. When I get to my car, he texts me that he thinks I’m gorgeous, normal (haaaa!) and would I like to go out again.

The guy I met yesterday.....was flirty over text but not inappropriate. He’s an actor (wasn’t smiling in any of his pics) so I wasn’t sure what I would think. 39. Never married. No kids. And a former dating coach:-). He seemed anxious to meet and again was...flirty. We meet and I can’t tell if he’s disappointed (every person says I look exactly like my pics and they’ve all been taken in the last month). He’s cuter in person and tells me about shows/films he has worked on. He’s very smart and still flirty but....more funny. We have very easy banter and I *think* he finds me attractive but not sure there is any connection or chemistry. I go to my car and we hug and say nice meeting you. When I get to my car he texts asking what to do around where he is. I know I will get an eye roll but I’m a pretty good judge of peeps. I said “you can come hang at my house for a while if you want.” He says “are you sure?” I said it was fine.

He gets to my house and my dog loves him. He sits on one couch and me on the other. The conversation flows but it’s a little odd because he is teasing me about where I grew up, my height, etc. He stays for about 2 hours and we just talk. Never touch each other. He is getting ready to leave and bends down to pet my dog and smacks my booty. I was a bit caught off guard but long ago I’ve written that for the guys with a booty fetish, I get TONS of attention. It’s kind of odd sometimes. So odd that my daughter says she hopes she doesn’t inherit “the butt”. Anyways, he gets up, says nice meeting you and leaves. I know I’m never going to hear from him again so I texted him, “ so, as a dating coach did you encourage clients to smack people on the butt right after they meet them? :-). No response.

I’m the only woman who hears about men online looking for hookups but I never meet those peeps. JK. Thought the story was funny.

Hugs to everyone.
