Love is Patient

Good Things Take Time

We met on November 23rd 2021, at bubbles and bites in Orlando. Although it almost didn't happen. Mike had thought about canceling, but I missed his messages because I was already in get ready mode. Luckily, he changed his mind and decided to meet me anyways. I thought he was cute, with a great smile- but a little on the quiet side. I wasn't sure if the date was going well or if I was just doing all the talking because I was nervous. His first impression of me was that I was bubbly, sweet, and had a nice smile and kind eyes. It was unusually cold for Florida, and we originally planned to sit outside, but Mike (the quiet one!) ended up asking if we could move inside. After dinner, he walked me to my car like a gentleman and then I surprised us both by making the first move and giving him a gentle goodnight kiss.
