Dating 101


Um, my Boyfriend at the Gym (BG) asked me out on a real date this morning.

He's been my boyfriend for ages, I keep seeing him and what began as little glances turned in to 'hellos' and then 'how are you?s' etc.

Then today, he waited for the space on the stretching mats next to me to become available and plonked himself next to me.

As you can imagine, I was looking at my very best. Tracksuit pants, sweaty t-shirt, my hair looked like it was about to take off in flight and my face was probably as red as... let's not even go there.

In addition to this, I was short of breath after my workout so when he asked me the standard introductory questions, my answers were given (not by choice) in a short, succinct, breathy stylee. Hopefully he didn't think I was doing it for effect.

If he does end up calling me (yes, I gave him my number), I'm a bit concerned about what happens next. I'm a bit out of dating practice. Oh well, at least it might make for some interesting stories...

Miz Boho... I intend to enjoy the date - if he ever calls! It's 2 days later and my phone is still being very, very silent....

Scribe ... that could possibly be the most homophobic comment you've ever made ;-)

Bluez... if his pants are square, I don't think I could go there.

Dan - I like the photo journal idea... hhhmmm.

Anhoni - I was so NOT glistening. More like melting. But hey - what's a boy gonna do??

Nortynessa... it's all about Spongebob and Patrick. They're secret lovers.

Missy, not sure how exciting it is just yet as he hasn't called...

Angel - I will enjoy it if it happens!

DM... I've never been chatted up in the gym before, so it was a unique experience!

DaBich said...

Miz BoheMia said...

Ziggy! Such drama - I love it! Of course he called. There sex appeal in a sweaty man fresh from the gym. Too bad it didn't happen though. Maybe next time?

And consolation *hugs* are quickly replaced with I'm sorry I haven't made the rounds in awhile still love me? *hugs* :)

DaBich said...

C'mon...so what plans were made for when you come home from Aussie land??? SPill it!

Minister Scribe said...

Minister Scribe is very jealous of how many comments you got on this blog entry!!! Fortunately, jealousy and spite are seen as virtues in mine religion!!! :)

Anhoni Patel said...

Ziggy!!!

Stop being a prat! You know you totally have time. Are you leaving for Oz this weekend? Go out with him on Friday for coffee or tea.

Miz BoheMia said...

*GASP* You said no? Well, I guess he doesn't have much pull or else you would not be able to resist althoug I think it worth a coffee or a drink!

Venga Ziggy! You know you want to!

Anonymous said...

Ziggy I never pegged you for a chicken shit.

Anonymous said...

erm *as*

you know what I mean

ziggystardust73 said...

oooohhhh but I haven't really told you the entire story... see my next post people.

Sar - of course I still love you, who couldn't love you with those SHOES?!?!

Minister Scribe... perhaps you should consider the Church of Ziggy's popularity when considering your own faith?

Bluez - damn woman, you been eating magic muffins again?!!

DaBich said...

Awww chit, I got overlooked, am I in The Church of Ziggy's bad graces???

ziggystardust73 said...

oops! sorry Dabich - and NEVER. You are way too cool to be placed in the bad graces box.

I'll let you know what happens with Gym Bunny on my return...

ps. thanks for the hugs
