This last Christmas, Ethan got me an experience gift of doing the 10K together. It was so sweet of him cuz he knew what his dad wanted and would love to do together with him. Thank you, son!!! It was also so fun to see Mercedes do the 1K at 1 years old. She is the cutest precious little angel
Pickleball, then The Owl Bar and drove up through Alpine loop from Sundance over to Suncrest lookout point with a view of Salt Lake. Melissa is beautiful and I really like the way I feel when I’m with her. I want to make her feel happy. She deserves happiness and to be treated right. I love learning more and more about her. I want to be with her! She feels like the right person for me. I hope she feels the same. I don’t want to mess this up with her.
1st date. Dinner date at Tsunami (sushi and talked for hours)
2nd date. Went to the Draper Megaplex and watched The Fall Guy (1st held her hand and short kiss) and then went over to Harvey park to see the pickleball courts and to just sit at a bench to talk and cuddle
3rd date. Dinner date at The Garage (dinner and longer kiss, she told me I was a good kisser) then went to Highland Glen park and sat on a bench and just talked and cuddled for a while
I finally went to Boise to spend a weekend with Caya at her house instead of her having to come to Salt Lake. We spent the weekend together. I went to her soccer game, we spent some time at the house she house sits and played games and dinner. We go to stop by Boise State and she made me ring the bell. We had a blast catching up and making new memories
I met Melissa on Hinge. She liked a picture of mine, so I matched back. We started texting via the dating app, and I soon realized we had a lot in common with similar backgrounds. We both grew up in the church with strong LDS families, we both have 21-yr old gay sons, we both have distanced ourselves from the church, and we both don’t feel it’s bad to have an occasional alcoholic drink, she’s done some running races, and likes to mountain bike. From texting on the app, she gave me her phone #.
Upon getting to know her a little bit, I immediately realized I was super excited and anxious to meet her. I really liked this girl, so I was nervous of screwing it up. We talked of options for our first date and settled on sushi at Tsunami. She asked me if I liked sushi to which I mentioned of only having it once or twice in my entire life. Well, we met up at Tsunami and we stayed there for 3 hours just chatting. I never wanted to leave. We had such a great time just talking and getting to know each other. I didn’t want the night to end. The waiter was cleaning our table frequently and it felt as if he was trying to get us to leave to open up his table. I was mesmerized by her
