this is pretty much where he was standing when I pulled up & first saw him |
We met online, and - breaking all the rules I'd set for myself - when he called me just two days later & asked me to meet him at a park, I agreed.
We walked the walking trail around the park (around... three miles ?), then sat on a bench in the dugout of the baseball field until dark (ie. the park closed).
The walking part is funnier when you realize I was still recovering from back surgery and couldn't really walk properly. But being in that don't-want-to-mess-up-a-good-thing mode of a new love potential, didn't say anything. And walked the entire trail. Stooped forward just a little. And in moderate pain by the end.
Since neither of us had had dinner, we drove to a nearby Skyline Chili restaurant for dinner, and ended up closing that place out (11pm).
We hugged goodbye, and parted ways.
All-in-all we spent over six hours together that night, talking. Talking about each other, our families, our past, and even what we wanted from a relationship.
Two days later we had our first official "date".
And the rest, as they say... is history.
I love you, Jason!

Happy Anniversary!
I'm getting caught up on all my blog reading {sorry I've been so neglectful!}.
LOVE this post! When we get together next, I want to hear more about this story.
