I just got back from a lunch date with a guy named Duane. It was a great time, I am SSBBW and it was nice to be treated normal. It has been a long time since I have had a date. Will there be another? Who knows! But, he sure made me smile.

I find that I get overlooked a lot . I'm not that out going or all talkative at first I think it has a lot to do with my plain looks though. Maybe I should spice it up sometime and actually do things like get my hair done or wear makeup things like that.

I have to echo what tinarobin wrote...a nice day out is a refreshing change of pace even if that's as far as it goes.

THAT'S GREAT!!! I'M GLAD YOU FOUND SOMEONE WHO CAN APPRECIATE BEING BLESSED WITH YOUR PRESENCE. NOT ALL DATES GO OVER AS WELL, NOR MAKE YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE ENOUGH TO SMILE AND JUST ENJOY THE MOMENT. HEY!!! DOES HE HAVE A BROTHER,LOL

yay!! Go you for actually going on the date!

Even if it doesn't pan out into a relationship, you at least had a nice time out and that's always a good thing :)

WONDERFUL!!!!!

I'm glad he made you smile.

After 59 years, I've finally realized that if I behave in a "normal" way I'm treated as normal. If I behave in a very insecure way that's how I'm treated.

Anyone else find this to be true?
