I think I Have Kept You Waiting Long Enough...Here is the Good News!

The good news is that I have actually found someone I like :).
He is amazing and I am not embarrassed to say that I met him online.  Just to backtrack a little, at the end of last year, God and I had a conversation.  I was talking to him about love and the things that I want for myself and my son for this year.  God told me that he was going to bring something special into my life this year.  As November approached, I wondered if I had misunderstood God or if I was overlooking the person he had brought to me as the year is almost over.  In mid October, I purchased some Larimar, which is a blue stone that is thought to be able to help you attract your soul mate or bring love into your life because of its positive energies.  I bought this as a reminder of the promise that God had made to me.  Sometimes it helps for me to have something physical as a reminder like a vision board.  (Speaking of a vision board, I need to start updating mine for next year).  (Don't worry, I'm a Christian, I'm not into magic or anything crazy lol I just needed something physical and that Larimar helped me re-focus every time I passed it-I placed it on my dresser next to my cross so I would see it every time I left my bedroom).

Finally, Some Good News, Well, Almost...Stay Tuned!

I took the advice from 1 of my dear friends and I tried online dating.  Ok, before you judge, just listen.  I'm not sure why people find online dating to be so taboo and weird.  Last night, I was talking to 1 of my close friends from college and she said that online dating is great because you get to set your own rules and really say exactly what you want.  I know that sounds easy, but let's be real...as a woman, I know we don't always put all of our cards on the table because we don't want guys to think we just want to jump into any ol' relationship or that we are desperate for a man.  Online dating is so great because you can chat with someone and if you don't like them, you can ignore them without having to worry about your phone getting blown up by multiple text messages or back to back calls.  Also, I find it easy to reject men online because the fear of hurting someone's feelings is practically non-existent.  (I'm still nice, I can just be a bit more blunt- no sugar coating stuff lol).  People never want to admit that they date online, but as I cruised through the site, I ran across people I knew in high school, college, etc...yeah, don't lie, some of you are giving it a try...I've seen you.  You could be on there for booty call purposes, but that's not my business.  I have even seen people I know that have boyfriends or girlfriends on this site...*side eye*....but once again not my business lol!

FYI...

I hope those of you that read my blog don't view me as someone who is desperate to have a man.  I write about dating because this is a blog about dating. 

Is This a test?!

 
I'm not going to lie...yes, I have resorted to online dating....thanks to Lesbiana.  Wait, before you judge, it isn't that bad.  I think of it as meeting a stranger in the mall and exchanging numbers.  The only thing missing is the body language.  Yes, I know you can get all types of vibes from body language, but the truth is that lately, I have been a bad judge of character.  Even when I meet guys in person and I like them they always seem to be "bad."

Anyway, I was browsing through the dating site and I came across this gorgeous guy I will call Mateo.
