FreeAngel and I had had the best first date ever. We did not want it to end. We did not kiss, but that was alright because I was just following the natural flow of the relationship rather than trying to force something before it’s time.
Well, that and the fact that I am incredibly bad at initiating intimate contact with a woman. I always have been. There were girls in high school who scratched their heads at my inability to make the first move. It was not until a girl attacked me and stuck her tongue down my throat that I had my first real kiss, and by that time I was a senior in high school.
So, great date but no kissing yet.
The next morning I sent an email to FreeAngel telling her what a delightful evening that I had. She responded that she thoroughly enjoyed herself and I took that as a good sign. I was feeling good about this budding relationship, I sometimes had a tendency to get too moony eyed and do something stupid that comes across as smothering or overly eager. I did not want to scare FreeAngel off, but I did want to express how much I enjoyed her company.
My mom is into astrology. She is always sending me my horoscope and reminding me when I should be watching out because Mercury is in retrograde or there is a full moon. At the time that I met FreeAngel there was a big astrological event happening in Pisces that was supposed to change my life. Two days before I met FreeAngel, I found out from a friend that my ex-wife was pregnant, even though she effectively end our marriage by saying that she did not want to have children and that she would not begrudge me for leaving and fulfilling my desire to be a father and have a family. It was not the only reason for our divorce, but it made it clear that if I wanted to live the life that I had envisioned for myself it was a good time to leave.
Long story short…finding out that my ex-wife was pregnant was rather shocking but on the whole not life altering. I knew that there was something else significant that was coming.
When I met FreeAngel in the way that I did I was pretty sure that our meeting was not a random act, but rather something predestined and special. With this sense of destiny I figured that I could do no wrong in regards to wooing FreeAngel.
So, I took a gamble and I had flowers sent to her work place. I knew that this was a delicate art. I did not want to scare her off. I wanted to sweep her off her feet. I knew that a dozen red roses would be too much, so I found a nice Spring bouquet and I wrote a note that would show how much I liked her but still be playful and not overwhelming.
The note read: "I had a great time last night. I have been smiling all morning. I also think it will be fun to make your co-workers jealous. Have a wonderful day!"
I had set things into motion and I sat back and hoped for the best, not knowing how she would react.
