a threshold

Tonight I am venturing into new territory. I have made acquaintance with someone due to an online dating site and am venturing out to meet her and have dinner. The girl seems very nice and normal enough. At this point, the only way to decide or see what more we have in common is to meet and talk. We have exchanged enough emails and had enough phone conversations that a person to person date was the next thing to do. We never can know if we have enough in common or not without setting down and talking to each other. Who am I to refuse someone that would like to meet me?

For whatever reason I am not very apprehensive about going to someplace strange and meeting someone new. These type of activities don't much worry me. I am not much of a worrywart anyways. I could see where the risk or caution would come from, but those concerns don't bother me. I kind of enjoy getting out there and seeing how things go.

I have now been tasked with a tough question twice. I am not real sure how to answer, because of the ambiguity behind what you consider meet. I have been asked if I have ever meet someone from a dating site. I am not sure if I should answer yes or no to this. I did meet or come to know someone that I didn't know had an online status of profile. I knew who they were once I saw the profile, but had never said much of a word to her before then. Thats what happens when you are dating someone and then are not dating someone I suppose. You start paying more attention to the other people around you. I am not sure if this means I have meet someone from a dating site or not. I would hate to say no, then get found out later as being less than truthful, say I have said that I have meet someone else from a dating site.

I am also in new territory because of a goal that I set for myself. I had hoped to get a years worth of posts here on my blog before announcing to family and friends that I was keeping a blog. This is post 183, and I am now a touch past halfway there. I don't know if I will still publicize my blogging status or not. I did once read that you can order a book of your blog, and will consider that as a cool option for the future.
