OK here is my story in a nutshell:
One of my alumna sister's has a 2nd cousin (her mom's cousin's son) that has hung out with us a few times. I initially wasn't attracted to him but then again those few times I hung out with him, I was casually dating someone else and really not getting to know him. Well lately I've hung out with them both more and my friend has always talked about what a sweet guy he is and I've observed the sweet things he has done for her. I don't know what happened but a light bulb went on in my head that maybe he and I should hang out. In any event I was thinking about how it could get really sticky if it didn't work out (especially because I am not looking for anything way serious right now and we have very different career backgrounds, I am in Social Work, he owns his own construction company, by the way he did comment to my friend "that he was afraid to ask me out because he thought I would only go for Ph.D types which reminds me of my other post on blue vs. white collar LOL). Well I had a talk with her last night about my concerns and she said she still thinks I should go for it. Both of them I believe would not discuss our private business either so I am not worried about that. Well he and I have been talking on the phone the past few days. He asked me out tonight for Friday and I accepted. Now that's all the juicy details you all will get for now
