Tomorrow. My first ever.

Just shows what a long strange trip it's been. Three years ago I saw myself as a straight male and had no thoughts that I might be anything else. The idea of being romantic with a man was ... icky.

I'm finding this a bit scary. I've never dated a man before (I've been on dozens of "straight dates", but never as the girl). As the saying goes, I don't know what I don't know.

But I'm at the point where I have to do that. I have a curiosity about having sex with a man, which seems to correspond with my recovery from SRS. I need to figure out how far it goes.

have fun be home by 10

Have fun and enjoy yourself

Wow, as someone who sees themselves as only attracted to women as well, I imagine this is quite the change for you! I say have fun with it. If it feels right go for it, if not oh well, chalk it up as an experience. 

There are some great guys out there and we can hope that your date is one of them.  You are so totally deserving of a good time Suzi. And then we wouldn't want too much weight on one date perhaps?  I am excited for you and really do expect you will have fun.  You are an easy person to talk with and what a cool departure from the ordinary.  Can't wait to hear how it goes.

I am so happy for you.

Have fun.

I'm very very happy for you Suzi. Best wishes!

Ally

That is wonderful.

I'm jealous..

Just relax, be yourself.  Have fun and tell us all about it.

Hugs,

Jen

Remember protection.

Then relax and enjoy the experience.

Congratulations!!

Don't do anything I wouldn't

Awesome Suzi. So did you find him online or some other way. Does he have a Porsche? Young or mature?? We want the GOSSIP!!!

.Congratulations I wish I had a date with anyone!

Congrats! That sounds like a new and fresh experience. I can see why you're scared. I would just go with the flow and if it doesn't work out then it wasn't meant to be.

Good luck and be careful Suzi. You really deserve someone special in your life.

Now that the date has passed; how did it go? What scared you? Did you take unfair advantage of the girls you dated as a man?

Date didn't happen. When I got back from lunch at 3PM I found a message waiting from him that he couldn't make our original 4PM time, was 6PM OK? I texted back OK. Unbeknownst to me, he messaged me at 5:40 that the place we were to meet is closed. I met him out front. He suggested another place, and I followed him in his car through backroads and parking lots until he pulled over abruptly. Came over to my car, told me he got a phone call from his son that a problem has come up and he needs to cancel. I asked him what was wrong, and it seems it was something with his son's car. He asked me whether I could find my way home ("yes"), apologized for making me "come out into the cold", pushed my door shut, got into his car and left.

Not sure whether I believe his story, or whether he didn't decide based on what he saw in front of the original shop that I wasn't worth spending any more time with. How do straight women put up with this $#!+?

Well that's a major bummer. Sorry to hear that, hon. How did you meet him?

Dunno, but they do quite frequently.

sorry that happened

Wow,

I'm so sorry.  It wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't the first one.  But look at it in full.  He had a problem early and basically cancelled. Then, when you didn't call back, he went to a place that was closed to meet you, to make sure you knew that he was interested.  Yea, his son had a problem.  But girl, how many men who were not serious would have went there just to make sure there wasn't an issue? 

We look, we listen, we understand and we just keep going......

Big hugs,

Jen
