So I joined a different app called Bumble. And for about a week I've been chatting with guy, just small talk. But it was consistent enough that I was like okay we cant keep just messaging. Let's pull the trigger. So we had our first video date tonight. It was really nice. He was actually cuter than his pics. He's only 33. And I'm 40. But I dont feel like that's too big a gap. I just turned 40 too. And since theres a pandemic I'm contesting the results of this year's birthdays. Lol.
It was quite fun and we will do it again. It was nice bc, even though I did put on light makeup. We could just talk and I didnt have to worry about other distractions or too much about what I wore. Definitely didn't have to worry about a first date kiss or hug. He seems like a fun guy. Not necessarily what I thought I'd be looking for, our interests differ a bit but we also have some similar interests. And I think we both are adventurous and like the outdoors so that's a good fit. It felt relatively easy chatting with him.
The other nice thing about this is that it requires some emotional intimacy first before you can even get physically intimate. It's like we have to get to know each other because we're not risking serious illness for a bootey call yet. Lol.
Not bad. And I suppose if it was bad we could always hang up. Haha
