First Date

If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, it must be a duck.  So Friday night felt so much like a date.  I had to ask Greg if it was because I haven't dated in soooo long.  Over 30 years.  He agreed with me that that is what it felt like.  Now Greg and I have known each other for over two years so it isn't like a get to know you thing.  We had a good time.
That said.....it kind of felt strange.  Probably because I haven't dated in so long.  I still haven't processed it.  But it does mean that we now get to have the chat.  The one that says I'm not looking for any great love affair.  I just want someone to do fun things with from time to time.  Someone to talk to.  I'm not looking for a spouse or even a committed boyfriend.
That said.....I think that is where he is also right now in his life.  He and his wife split up just before Christmas.  And he isn't over that yet.  And that's all right.  I'm not over the death of Dave.
And I have now had my first date in forever and it wasn't bad at all.  Greg said its not suppose to be difficult.   I said it always has been difficult.  Different perspectives.
