So, I had the DTR talk with the Cute Dad last night. Or I tried to. It didn't go super awesomely. He was kinda awkward and noncommittal about everything. He's not seeing anyone else (nothing new, but good to confirm), and he "feels pretty good" about how things are going, but beyond that I just don't know.
It's still early, and I'm stubborn, so I'm not going to run away right now or anything, but... I'm not feeling super confident about it. I worry there is a bigger imbalance than I first suspected as far as how we feel about each other, so I'm going to just be more cautious.
I will meet some of his friends tonight, so that'll be interesting. I just don't know what to think, which is dangerous for an overthinker lol
Anyway, dating is stupid. :P
Re: I'm annoyed. (AW-y Cute Dad update)
Guys are weird about "the talk." It's like they dread it so much that when it happens, it's a bigger deal to them than it needs to be and then they try to downplay it as much as possible to make it not a big deal.
Or they're like, "I"m not seeing anyone else; what more do you want?" Which...is a litle bit fair, right? He's made his side of the relationship exclusive without having to be asked. But take that with a grain of salt; I'm very "guy-brained" about some things.
I think that he is not seeing anyone else and you are meeting his friends, are good signs. Can you, at this point, just enjoy the relationship and revisit the nuts and bolts of it in a few months? Just see where it goes on it's own?
We are so thankful that our second daughter, Lillian Elizabeth "Lily", was born healthy and happy on February 11, 2013. We love her to pieces.
We lost our first daughter, Hannah Grace on May 4, 2011. She was buried on May 14 during a beautiful service at my home church. We are grateful that if she could not be here with us, that she is healed and whole with the Lord. We look forward to the day when we will get to meet her. We love her so much.
I'm kidding, of course, and appreciate all the input. Like I said, I'm not ready to drop the whole thing because after 2 months he's being a goober about "labels." I like him a lot, and it's worth waiting to see where things go from here. It's just a little frustrating since I'm impatient and I know how I feel about him.
Plus, I know that he is not the people I've been involved with in the past, but when you have heard the same response from a number of people, almost always leading to the same end result... It's gonna make you wary. You know?
But I am focused on getting to know him further and hopefully become more apart of his life with being around his friends. He also basically said I'm the best he's had in bed, so, I'm trying to focus on that, too lol

Don't worry, after last night I'm not pushing the issue. I even told him outright (playfully) that everything was cool and I wouldn't be offended if he didn't want to call me his girlfriend. Y'all are the ones getting to see my frustration until I let it go. Lucky ducks
It was a pool party, so I had to get a swimsuit last minute. I found one at target on clearance that made my boobs look fabulous AND disguised my belly. Score.
It was so much fun. Everyone was pretty cool, and the one wife who was there talked to me the whole time so there was no awkward sitting alone in silence while Cute Dad did host stuff.
The BFF told me a couple times he thought I was really cool and bad ass, and he was glad to finally meet me and see that I actually exist lol.
I was nervous for no reason
