I met up with Mark tonight, after I returned from my parents. He was waiting in the restaurant lobby and gave me a hug and a kiss. We had dinner and he was very touchy, just holding my hand, etc. Afterwards we went for a walk around the city, looking at Xmas lights. I had sent my flight number, so he could check to see if I was delayed, but he said he actually went to the airport to surprise me. Somehow we missed each other.

We kissed and talked for a while; he asked when he could see me again; he told me when we were at the jazz club, I was the only person he saw … he said all these lovely things so I decided to take a chance and invite him out on Tues. when I’m meeting up with some friends. He totally got all weird, saying he wasn’t sure, blah blah blah. I told him it was no big deal and he actually said, “I do need some time!” like for himself, I guess. I was like, whatever …

I was thinking about it on the way home and I don’t know … I mean, we’ve gone out twice so it’s not like I can bitch if he’s seeing someone else. But he called me Wed., Thurs. and Saturday, plus we e-mailed a lot. If he thinks I’m going to sleep with him on Friday, he is sorely mistaken. I think he just wanted to hang out here, “watch a movie” (does that ever work out?) and see what happens next. I’ll tell him I ain’t taken the next step until there’s a stronger emotional connection.

And get this … the ass is already showing up as “online now” on match.com!!! I’ve only been home 20 minutes, he can’t have been home much more than that!
