pork off with your bacon
Hi Natasha, hope all is well.
Actually thought of you just because I'm heading down to Atlanta for a couple of days for work.
Spent so much time in NC that I'm finding myself with a slight dialect when I'm hollaring for the dogs out back LOL
How is that Boston weather treating you? Who is the new guy? So many questions, so little time
:waving: Hi, Joe! The Boston weather is decent. Finally warming up a little bit, which is nice. Next week I'll be leaving to spend a couple of days in Florida and Georgia...I have a feeling I'm not going to be a fan of being back in hot climates.
The new guy's name is Jaime. We met online on a dating site, actually. I had kept seeing his picture and thought he was really cute, but because he was in Florida, I wouldn't message him. He actually ended up messaging me, we started talking, and after about a month or so I went on a date with another guy and it kind of clicked for both of us that there was something there. For me it clicked b/c I couldn't get him off my mind during my entire date...for him it clicked b/c he didn't like the idea of me being on a date with another man. We decided to take things slow and see what happens, but it evolved to a relationship. I'll be visiting him next week and we'll see where to go from there.
Hope you're doing well. Sounds like you've been busy!

Old and worn out
Make up your mind! You moved north and then meet up with a guy in Florida......LOL

Hope things work out, but dang, you just moved to Mass and trying to work something out with a guy fro Florida is pushing the odds.
The fact that he felt uncomfortable with you out on a date would raise some red flags given your current situation.
I'll stop sounding like you mother now
I know, I know. I resisted even talking to him for a long time, even though I kept seeing his picture and wanting to talk to him. Once we've spent a couple of days together next week, we'll know a little more about where we can go with this. May end up parting as friends, who knows...but I'm interested in finding out.Hope things work out, but dang, you just moved to Mass and trying to work something out with a guy fro Florida is pushing the odds.

You'd have to work on your Southern twang and guilt trip abilities to sound like MY mother. I've already gotten the "you need to come HOME, not go to Florida for 2 days beforehand!"

If your going for wild mo mo sex, great, but make sure you take safe precautions
But... That's all it is, OR either you move or he moves.
I did the online dating myself. He should come to you, not the other way around giving the circumstances. Hopefully it was your decision to go to him, but he should of least put up a fight over it and offer to split traveling expenses.
Just abuse your position and run a check on the guy (if you haven't already lol)
Got to ask, good airfare deal?
Ok, so I'm NOT done sounding like your mother.
We'll see how we feel after next week. He told me when we started talking that he doesn't ride off into sunsets. He has a 3 year old daughter and, understandably so, she is top priority. I have already told him that, assuming things continue as they have been, there will come a day where that won't work for me. We'll cross that bridge when we get to it, I guess.
Initial plans were for us to meet in August when I would be leaving out of Fort Lauderdale on a cruise. He was going to go on the cruise with me. Then a surprise wedding in May was sprung on me (my nephew) and I figured since I was flying to Georgia anyway, might as well stop by Florida, too. We batted around the idea of him coming to Georgia, instead, but he has his daughter every weekend. He offered to pay for a hotel and all living expenses for those days and, of course, I accepted.
I did not abuse my position, but I do have OTHER ways of checking up on people (LEGAL ways that I know about b/c of my work experience). The only thing he has are a couple of traffic cases from 2010 and 2012, which he actually had already told me about.
Airfare wasn't bad. I couldn't get the cheapest airfare...it sold out before I could. Ticket was a little over $100 to get there and then $94 to get to Georgia after, so it wound up costing me about $50 more than it would have if I had just flown straight to Georgia as originally planned.
Nah, still got to work on it some more before you sound like mom.

Sounds like you're being level headed about everything. Also sounds like you're going to have to move to Florida if things get really serious. My only advice would be not to move unless you're up to a new adventure in Florida by yourself "in case things don't work out" (me just being a realist, apologies).
I wish you the best in this new adventure of yours.
