I've not been inclined to really write until a few days ago. The man who was making me giggle the last time has ultimately put himself in the friend zone, which I don't mind. But the last few months have changed my mood.
We started chatting on Growlr and it progessed to what my comadre Laura calls an "ambiguous queer hangout." I told him during this AQM that I was calling it a date retroactively. He agreed. We've had more dates and they've all been great. This last date, he went with me to a friend's birthday party. I was glad and thankful he chose to go with me and meet my friends. He seems very inclined to attend one of my birthday celebrations soon.
I can honestly say that I dig him; there's no other way I can put it. I even bought him a gift: a pair of socks with a koala wearing DJ headphones and a really cute small mug from Daiso. He liked it. He wasn't weirded out or put off, he sincerely enjoyed it.
I don't know where this is going, but I'm rather glad I'm along for the ride.
