_ just pm'ed me. looks like music professor guy talked to everyone in his department about _'s email date request. looks like i'll be needing that flight out to hawaii as soon as possible. i woulda never have thought people in Maui were so nasty to one another, even at the workplace.
aw fuck, I saw that you posted and my stomach jumped on your behalf!
we are all really rooting for you here, I guess
Hang in there!
Thanks! I really appreciate everyone rooting for me! And the pictures are cracking me up! I should wander over here from the Train more often! :thumbup:
You guys crack me up! No, he doesn't really look like Mr. Sensitive Pony Tail guy.
ok, then I am picturing:
Hot damn! Who's that?! :shock:
I wish I knew! I just googled 'guy with long hair' and there he was...some of them aren't as tasty...(I decline to post those pictures...they will make you throw up in your mouth)
The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.
I decided not to go to his office. My sister reminded me that her office has a red button at the front desk for people like that. I decided to send him an email. It's probably horrible, but I'm tired of obsessing about how to word it, so I was just totally straight up:
Please forgive this random email, but I'm just going to be direct: I saw you at karaoke Friday night and thought you were funny and talented and gorgeous. I'd really like to meet you, but I don't know how to make that happen. My friends told me you work here too, so I got your email from the directory and am just going to ask: Might I be able to persuade you to join me for coffee or something some time?

Early Line: _ asks mr. sensitive pony-tail guy out
His response:
"sure, why don't we meet in the cafeteria tomorrow - i have a break between 10:30 and 11:00": 3 - 1
"i would love to but i am seeing someone already": 5 - 1
"please send me pictures - head shots, full body shots, bikini shots taken within the last moon cycle": 8 - 1
"love is like an oyster of shallow persuasion, whence comes the opening of a life fulfilled": 20 - 1
What are the odds on no response? I'm gonna put my money on that.
it screams hello with one glance and the rest is history!
If you cannot write the poem be the poem.

Happy Birthday
back to the door
I heard it open
it was only a grand opening
for I knew it was my Love
of Ages Old
I didnt have to turn
around to say hello
But as I I danced
with my eyes
closed
I could feel him looking to me
He asked me to look at him
No words.
I opened my eyes
there he stood
the only two in the
room.
Only amazed by the
beautiful colors he sees
of my Love once again.

How the hell did my picture get on the internets!!

well ... we're not going to go that route ... :twisted:
it's probably what 81 said ... if your office bio doesn't include a picture ... he has to to do his recognizance ... ... he's probably sending someone he knows to scope you out ... take cell phone shots ... outstanding warrants ... number of ex's that are on the missing persons list ... standard stuff ... takes time ... don't fret ...
Ummmm....I was referring to the fact you'd sent it....but in all honesty, I think the email is also a little scary. I wouldn't have put the gorgeous part in myself. It maybe makes it feel a bit juvenile. But that's just my view. He might love it. The funny and talented part was a nice touch.
I still think he's going to want to know what you look like before he says yes. There is no way in hell I'd say yes to a blind email. Are there photos of you on your work's website?

Wow, cell phone shots?! Now that's one I hadn't thought of!

How old are you both?
Yeah, I thought better of the gorgeous bit right after I hit send. But I was tired of trying to think of what to say, so I had decided to just write what was on my mind & not give it a second thought. I'm hoping it will be flattering. I have a hard time thinking that men would find it inappropriate given that they have no problem saying stuff like that to us out of nowhere.
Nope, no photos. I'm 35. I think he's 36. So I'm probably too old for him then.
Where are those little dancing smilies when you need them??
Who had bets on 23 hours? You won!
So he replied and said thanks for the flattering email and he's free next week. He also said, "If we can make the coffee thing non-romantic that'll take a lot of the pressure off." I totally agree with that, though! I hate sitting across the table from a guy I just met and having to decide right away whether I like him romantically. I really just want to get to know this guy better. I'm so excited!!
