this is going to be my date thread, but we can also use it for random date musings as well- feel free to post your own current date gossip.

so, a little backround. I've been single for almost 4 years now, coming out of a LTR of almost 8 years. I dated a lot the last 2 years, and after this year of horrible dates i took a hiatus.

now i have a date with the service manager of the garage i take my car to.

this is what i know about him so far:

he's 36, and is from texas-only been in NJ for a year. he has the slightest accent. when i called him back this morning his ringtone was some country song which is way too country for 9 am but noone is perfect, lol.

his name is Eric, and speaks spanish. ( i do know his last name)

he thinks i'm pretty, which is weird because i usually look like a hot mess when i take my car in ( i was still in my PJ's yesterday)

now, i have an issue. remember Lori's thread about Heart Vs Head when dating? my problem is my heart makes terrible decisions, and my head thinks too much. I'm already thinking that maybe he thinks that we are going out as repayment for the discount he gives me, and he expects some nookie. this isn't my gut instinct, but i'm a skeptical person by nature so it's hard for me to get past stuff like this.

I have not learned yet to balance my heart and brain.

Why would you be going out if not to get some nookie?

Since time is limited i would say use alcohol as an equilizer between head and heart....
Seriously....I have no words of wisdom for you. All I can share is when I met an Eh match for the first time I was thinking he was expecting some nookie for flying me down to see him. Very similar to your discount train of thought. So after a couple of hours and a couple drinks I asked him asked him point blank. He simply said " expecting No ....Hoping yes!! "
Had to give him credit for being honest.

A friend of mine made me make a list of what I wanted in a man here are a couple of the entries. Someone who reminds me to feel when I am being analytical. Someone who reminds me to stop and think when I am being too emotional.

Not and easy thing at all is it. There are some things that I can peal off all emotion and run an analysis on then add the feelings back. Yours is not that kind. The only thing I can come up with is try to think using a friend as you. Looking objectively what advice would you give her? You still may not believe yourself but you will have the right answer.

Waiting for this thread is why I joined this group, lol. The naughty mechanic story intrigued me more than the cable guy.

I can't wait until the date.
