Awkwardness with a boy.

Post by Amelia--

So, I started a profile on an online dating website a few months ago. I have talked to several guys on there. Nothing serious. A few of them of asked if I was willing to meet or exchange numbers (one guy from Turkey asked if I wanted to go to Finland with him). I always said no because I wanted to take things slow first. That, and because I'm a little chicken. Anyways, I have been talking to one guy for awhile. Well, a few days ago, he mentioned he was going to be in Tulsa, and he asked if that if he drove to my town, if I would want to meet up with him. Well, for some reason, I said yes. Now, I work for a music show, so I told him that I wouldn't know for sure how much free time I was going to have. It ended up being that I would have all morning until 1 free and 2 hours between shows. Well, he came down around 1030.

Meeting him was awkward. There were moments when I was not really sure what to say, or even what to do. So, I gave him a little tour of the campus. I thought it was a good idea, until I realized how hot it actually was. Then, we had lunch at a cafe, took a walk down the main strip, and stopped by Nerd Town for a bit. Then, I had to be at the music venue. We met up after the first show. Walked around again, then had dinner at a pizza place, and then he left to go home, I left to put my box of leftovers in my fridge.

My role as hostess did not go over well. At least in my opinion. I didn't know what to say sometimes. I was just really awkward. I'm still not sure how I feel about him. We have some stuff in common, and he seemed like an okay person that I could possibly be friends with. But, I'm not sure about anything more. Did I mention that I was awkward?
