Bringing Sexy Back...........

As I said in yesterday's blog, I was oh so looking forward to last night's date.  I got my nails done, my hair done and I had picked out the perfect outfit.  I was hoping that would be the night that I finally had a decent date.  The location and time was picked out and I was getting very excited.  Earlier in the afternoon I get a pre date text and it went a little like this........
BSB: You are gonna love the sport coat I'm wearing.  Baby SEXY is back well in 3 hours he will be.  You don't even know.  My hair slicked back. My fancy clothes.Changing the look of the world one person at a time. Ha.
Me: No response
Now, I will admit and say when I read that text the first thought was oh goodness what have I gotten myself into.  But since we had talked for almost a week on the phone and I enjoyed every single one of our conversations I overlooked the arrogant tone in that text.  So after getting some much needed rest during the day I was ready to go and out the door on TIME.

I arrive at 6:59, yes that is one minute early at a great restaurant.  He looks great and I do in fact like the tailored sports coat that he is wearing.  We finally take a seat.  Order a round of drinks and then he states that he needs to leave and go down the road for a pack of cigarettes.  He then gets up and leaves.  He is gone for about 15-20 minutes.  I literally thought that Sexy Back had gone to perform a concert or sale hair gel or was walking on a runway somewhere.  He then reappears with cigarettes in hand.  Now our meal was something out of a movie.  I did feel like I was in the movie Pretty Woman unlike my previous date.  If it was on the menu then we ordered it.  We had beef, we had pork, we had chicken, and seafood.  Anything anything anything.  The conversation was good and the food was even better. He continues to go outside and smoke and on one of his returns he states that some college kids thought he was Steven Segal and that he obliged and took pictures with them.  But I am sitting there thinking..."You are not, so why would you pose for a picture."  So everytime after that he stated, I am going to smoke with my "fans".  Towards the end of the meal he mentions that he has a great patio over looking the city, and we could go back and continue our date.  He also orders a cup of coffee and it is served in a very expensive Indian cup.  He wanted that cup to take home.  After asking two servers he then went to the manager and insisted that he have the cup to take home with him.  The manager finally gave in and the cup was his.  He looked at me and said, "You know why I was able to get that cup, because I am the best looking, best dressed person in here."  And yes I was still in the restaurant so he was including me in that statement.  I finally agree to go back to his great patio and he orders a bottle of wine from our server, opens it and takes it with us.

His condo is nice and his patio is very nice.  He asks me if I am cold and brings me a cashmere blanket.  Had I brought my bigger purse I would have snagged it.  We drink some wine and still the conversation is good. At one point in the night I go to the bathroom and decide to look in his cabinet.  You can find a lot out about a person by what is in their cabinet. As I look, it is completely empty.  LIKE NOTHING AT ALL!!  So I wonder, what does that say about him?  Is he empty? One thing I do know, he does love himself quite a bit which makes me think, could I love or even like a man who loves himself that much?  What if we did get in a relationship nothing would ever be his fault because he is perfect.  For example, he was married and the reason for the divorce was silly to him, his wife said he cheated but he claims he did not because the other girl "serviced him" and he really did nothing.  So since he is perfect how could he ever think he has any flaws.  He states that he is very nervous around me and I am not sure why.  As the date winds down he tries to make put the moves on me.  I respectfully decline and he asks why?  I state that if I do that tonight, you will not respect me in the morning and don't say that you will because you will not.  Before I leave he tells me he would like to see me on Sunday for a boat ride, I just hope his boat does not have FU**ENGRUVEN down the side.  I tell him to call me later and we will discuss Sunday and then I leave.

This morning I receive the text message:
BSB: How you doing sexy. (Guess now I am bringing Sexy Back) Thank you for a great evening.
Me:  You are welcome.  I had fun.
BSB: Still wanna get together Sunday if you can.

Now, I do like him but I wonder if I can get passed his also liking himself.  Confidence is sexy but over confident is not.  I have decided that if I do go out with him again, I would like a date during the day.  I am thinking maybe he will be toned down during the day.  Also, there is not many men asking for sexy time on a day date.  I want to get to know Sexy Back on a much lower key date.  I want to be able to talk to him without having an entire feast staring me down.  Who knows if this will go anywhere, but I finally did return a text message.........
