Dating Mr. Serious: Dude, chill
My new guy/beau is a little on the high strung side. I think he likes the fact that I encourage – ok force- him to relax and enjoy the time we spend together.
I have a really silly, playful side at times and I love to laugh and have fun when I’m on a date. During our first few outings, I admit I was ready to deuce him out! He is making an effort to chill out but I get the sense that he has never really let himself unwind and have fun that much before.
It is kind of fun and interesting to watch him explore the simple
things that relaxes him! What do you do to unwind? Have you found that the serious/intense people you date often are the most fun to be around once they kick back?
What is the most relaxing and laid back date you have had?
On a semi-related sidebar: Why does it seem as if some men don’t want to outwardly express happiness or feelings of content. It’s actually difficult to determine when you are happy in our presence sometimes! What gives?

@Celisea ~ Exactly!!! I remember being pregnant and stopped to use the phone booth. Didn’t have a cell then. There were 42 pennies on the ground. I picked them all up while my ex looked on in disbelief. I told him those pennies were meant for me.
@PR ~ didn’t say they were on the bathroom floor. They were outside the door, on the carpet. Noticed them as I looked down while I was opening the door.

@Alvin ~ I just don’t want to get fat. I’m the skinniest girl in my family. There are some big girls in my family. I’ve noticed the weight gain and the cholesterol so I made up my mind to do something about it and not let it do me! Plain and simple! I’m too cute to get any bigger.

There are some big girls in my family
I don’t get this genetics thing either. All my sisters are fat and my mom was round (I love her) as long as I can remember. My brothers did pick up until they started getting older. I’m the only one not fat. Go figure. I’ll take it though

My kid probably won’t ever get have much weight on her. Her dad and his side of his family are all slim folks. I think his mom and her identical are both size fours and his granny weighed 98 pounds when she passed but she’d been that size as long as I knew her. Thing about that is she was healthy…just small.

Yeah genetics whatever drives having twins better skip right on over my kid….her grandmother is an identical. Whenever she talks of “when I have kids” I always interject and say put a husband ahead of that please ma’am….lol

I’ll take it too…must get my slimness from my father’s side. He was tall and slim his entire life. Mama and sis and cousins and aunt…boy o boy. I could never carry that kind of weight around! They keep me motivated to exercise….

C — You want lessons? I can help with your form on your strokes. Of course, I might accidentally rub up on your booty a lil’ bit in the process, but it’ll be completely innocent…
