mskestrela's Journal, 14 Sep 16

Happy Hump Day FS buddies! Another tropical storm is moving past...loads of rain and wind.
You guys crack me up with the comments on my last journal!
So....lunch. Yeah. I was a good girl, and only had the clear soup and sashimi. And green tea. Pat me on the back and tell me what a good girl I am.
Now on to the pressing questions:
1- He showed up with a gift: a HUGE bottle of Ron Chata in a cloth bag that looked like a smoking jacket from the 40's. Very elegant;
2- We're still very comfortable with each other...it wasn't awkward at all. In fact, we picked up conversation as if we'd last talked a few days ago, instead of a year and a half ago;
3- We laughed a LOT;
4- I educated him on LCHF...he was non-plussed;
5- I'm pretty sure he wants to pick things up where they left off;
6- I'm not sure how I feel about that.
He's still a really nice guy, we still have a lot in common, and there's still an attraction. However, as they say, once burnt, twice shy. So, for now, I will see him occasionally, platonically...and let him pursue me, if he's so inclined.
We'll see where it goes.

interesting...and i think you're plan is a good one! and good job on sticking with the clear soup & sashimi (i love sashimi!!). what is ron chata??

@Berley, Ron Chata is an evil, wicked, delicious alcoholic beverage that combines 2 of my delicious sins: Rum and Horchata, a Mexican rice and cinnamon drink that has TONS of sugar in it. Plus it has some cream and vanilla added. I won't be cracking the bottle open any time soon!

LOL! Thanks Lady and Xshape! My tail is wagging. I just checked the 'nutrition' info on the Ronchata...16 grams carbs per shot! OUCH!

You really did do good. And I agree, sounds like your plan is a good one so good luck.

16g?! Maybe we can get our carb loader friends to do a few shots for you during one of their cycles.

Congratulations... You sound amazing... Yes let him chase after you for a while. I am not so sure I could have done as well where sushi is concerned.. I will remember this next time I am tempted...

Good idea, Barb! Thanks, Sue. Thanks, Rains...it helped that I told him right off the bat that his choice in restaurants was a challenge for me, because I'm not eating grains right now. He offered to take me someplace else, but I knew that I had some safe choices. He's a little bit of a sushi-newbie, so he asked me to order for him. I ordered for him what I *would* have ordered for myself if I ate rice. Vicarious pleasure, and he liked it. And oh, the fatty tuna was AMAZEBALLS!

Mahhhvelous! You have such a way with words. I feel like I had lunch with you. I have to admit you are the most "sure of yourself" gal I know. The meet-up couldn't have gone better. How wonderful for you both. pats pats pats on the back are definitely in order. Nice outcome.

ROTFLMAO. 😂 I didn't see the earlier post until after this one....Come on folks, we've all got to get our own lives.

You're such a grown up! I do love the way you go about things. - and with a sense of humor. glad you enjoyed your lunch date.

MsKes, He sounds like a nice gentlemen to me! Glad you enjoyed your lunch date. Couldn't wait to hear how it went! Happy for you both!

Awww, thanks guys. "Sure of myself" and "grown up" are things for which I've worked very hard over the last few years. Those refer to the 'evolved' relationship I mentioned in my dilemma post. I refuse to take anything too seriously. It's just not big a deal in the big picture. When you realize that EVERYTHING in life is a choice, moment to moment, and that you're the driver of your own bus, life gets really fun! :D Sometimes I wonder if my bus happens to be the 'short bus'.

So glad you enjoyed yourself. Sounds like you've got the right attitude and everything is under control. Good job!

@Sarah1950, my life isn't nearly as exciting. She's dancing naked in the rain, I'm falling asleep in the tub. She's having lunch with old beaus, I'm fasting while hubby eats peanut butter with the dog. I need this! 😆

What a nice time you had...I am glad...sounds like you got it all together...yeah, let him pursue you! Take your time...the right things will happen! Have a great day!
