That is a good question! I am attracted to him..... although he’s got this dorky cute thing going on which I like . It’s different for me. He’s not a drinker. Maybe one drink. And that’s new to me. And probably good for me, lol. He’s frugal like me. He’s not cheap, but he definitely isn’t a money waster
I think it’s his normalcy, really. Lack of baggage. He’s divorced, sure, but he’s got all of that pretty well handled good R with his kids..... his 17 year old lives with him full time. His 19 year old is away at college an hour away, but comes home every other weekend..... but he’a completely comfortable in his father hood role. He’s not obsessed with trying to prove anything to them like the last guy I went on the date with back on October. Or M . He’s dad, he’s cool with it, he spends time with his kids, his kids do their thing, and it’s all good.
He works to accommodate my schedule. Asks when I am free and when we can see each other. He plays 2 sports, and does them 2 nights a week. I don’t ask him to hang out then, but if it was important to me, for whatever reason, he would skip. Unlike M, who almost didn’t skip his stupid lake meeting for my birthday and to meet my family.
So, yeah, he treats me super well. He’s pretty normal and has got his stuff together. Does not fear an R. Wants to be with someone long term. It doesn’t scare him.
It’s good stuff. And maybe I’m used things being a wreck and so much effort. This seems almost effortless. And I really like that. Because lord, I feel like I take on some insane full time job with these men I date. Effortless is nice.
Plus he loves my dog and my dog loves him. That’s always a bonus! My dog was laying in between us with his head on E’s chest. It was pretty freakin’ cute .
