Date With NJ Doc

I have gone out with other guys since meeting Eagle, I mean he keeps telling me to - so I am. But no one has really caught my attention the way he has so in general its hard not to keep thinking about him.

Tonight I had a date with NJ Doc. I met him through an "aunty" - mind you I have no idea who this aunty is! If you're Indian, you get how this works - my mom calls me and tells me so and so told her about this guy and that he'll be calling me soon. So be it. Though this time it was completely blind - I had no idea how this guy looked! I had talked to him a few nights ago and was in one of my moods where I was talking a hundred miles an hour and we actually clicked on the phone, which was a pleasant surprise. I talked about my neice and he about his nephew - both the same age. I don't know, conversation with him was very real. So when I saw him outside the restaurant tonight - and surprisingly he was actually cute (you can never tell with these aunties!) - I looked forward to the rest of the date.

We had dinner at an Indian restuarant. Conversation was easy and good the entire time. Turned out he actually had gone on a date with one of my really good friends a few years ago - what a small world. Anyway first impressions are first impressions - the one thing that kinda threw me off was that he never really asked me what I wanted/preferred. For example, he's not vegetarian but I am. So when we were looking at the menu, he said he didn't mind ordering a vege appetizier - and told me the 2 things he liked and asked me to choose. Hmmm....how about asking me what I wanted to get instead? I didnt really think about it too much...until the waiter asked us what kind of bread we wanted with our dinner. He said we'll take 2 butter naan's. Uh, hello - I'd like mine plain, please. Then when we were done and the waiter asked if we wanted anything packed he said no. Again, I was like actually I'll take mine to go (I had hardly had any of it and why let it go to waste!). Then the waiter asked if we wanted dessert and he was like no, we're fine. Okay then! So....those things kinda threw me off ---- but at the end of the day, despite that actually, I think we had a decent time. When we left he gave me a hug and said maybe in a few weeks (we both had travels coming up) we should get together again and that he'd even come closer next time to my neck of the woods.

I talked to my friend that he had gone out with - she remembers him being cute and nice and can't remember why they never went out again, she thinks maybe he just never called her. So let's see if he calls me...I'd be up for a 2nd date with him.

Oh - and you would be so proud, Eagle did not cross my mind the entire time I was with NJ Doc! Though hours later that night I called Eagle and got his voicemail...talking to him everyday/night is not a habit I am going to be able to break easily, not when I enjoy it so much, and not when I really don't want to. Though I know it has to happen at some point. I fell asleep but was glad to see in the morning that he had called me back. Why these things matter to me I don't know. Okay, I know - but give me some credit - I am trying here!
