I just started dating a new guy around Thanksgiving. We have similar long term goals, we get along pretty well, and he is very sweet and gentlemanly. I've been dating around a lot recently, but I haven't had this type of experience. Things are just so...simple. There hasn't been drama or pressure or questioning where things stand. The two of us have just been enjoying each other's company, getting to know each other, and -- most importantly -- not rushing things.
I feel as though this is how dating should be. We're open with each other and we always set another date up right away. That has been what has bothered me most about casual dating is that I haven't known where things stand. In this case however, I do know. I know that we're interested in each other. I know that there's potential there, but that we're both not rushing into anything and that we're on the same page. Not to mention I enjoy having doors held open for me and dinner cooked for me and a guy offering to carry my heavy bags. :)
This new mantra -- live simply -- seems to have infiltrated many aspects of my life. And I'm ok with that.
