He stood up straight unlike most tall men. His shoulders are broad and he carries himself like he is in charge. People actually moved out of his way which I found interesting. He was extroverted, exhibiting a lot of the charm and expansiveness of like ... hmmm ... maybe Bill Clinton. He greeted me with ease, complimented me on my appearance, and introduced me to someone he had befriended while he was waiting for me. He easily closed the conversation with him and ushered me outside. When we walked to our restaurant, he took my hand and we walked this way throughout the date. It felt natural, like I had known him for a long time (we just exchanged a couple of PMs through eH to set up the first meeting). We talked for a long time and he leaned in, seemingly interested. He didn't ask a lot of questions but skillfully guided me ... not an easy thing to do. A couple of women next to our table spoke to us in a friendly manner, obviously wanting to fall into a conversation with him. He talked about loving to play pool, poker and chess. He was candid about dating and matching and such. I have no illusions about the hand holding and good night kiss. But I enjoyed it all the same.
great discriptive style. can you write more ...

Yeah ... without a doubt. When I said, "I bet you win at poker" and he said "yeah, I do". He slipped by calling me another matches name. I touched the tip of his nose with my index finger "you know you are going to have to call me by my actual name ... but then ......... you would with any woman". CO smiles. He took in some breath and then, like any smart man, smiled, too.

Busted.
You're really smitten aren't you. You even responded in a cute way to his calling you the wrong name.

My turn (I mention this is another post)

Last night (our Saturday) I dared a woman to met me at a blues bar within about an hours. Didn’t really expect her to. But she double dared me, and turned up. Had a great night. Music was wonderful. She was charming, swish, tactile (stroking chin as i cliam to have shaven), knees gently touching, kiss on the lips good by). Even laughed at my jokes, joined in about tales of respoective family. Didn't seemed bother when I mentioned I came for House of Usher (maddness) ... then again she's therapist so I guess sees worse. I do try to put of the faint hearted. I don't aim to impress - just be to be facinating. She even txt the next morning to say thanks for inviting her and suggesting meeting again. Cool! I was stood up for dinner Sunday night by someone else. But I'd been out with her on Thursday (does that count for weekend round up)

LOL! It sounds he's a pretty smooth guy with lots of options open, but I hope he sees that he's found an intelligent woman who is worthy of his focused and undivided dating attention.

Oooh. Sound like CO has met her Match. Maybe.

Good luck with that -- you sound like your have just the right attitude: eyes wide open and cautiously appreciative of his good traits. Glad you had a good time!

Naw. I met this match. I go into matched dating like this:

1. Dress well. Feel good. Be ready for fun.
2. Eat dinner.
3. Try to understand the rubix cube of why you are matched with this, specific, man.
4. Roll that around in your head.
5. Do not spill dinner on rack.
6. Express appreciation for evening.
6. Go home.

I don't know that CO's met her match, I think it's more likely that the guy has met his match! Have fun with this one, CO - you clearly already have your eyes open. And let us know what happens!
