The First Date!

Lindsay:  Chris drove for about an hour to meet me.  I was living in New Jersey with my parents at the time and my mother didn't want me to go to Philadelphia to meet any strange men.  We met at Leonardo's which is an Italian restaurant about 5 minutes from my house.  Chris got lost on the way there and I was so worried that I was going to get stood up as I waited for him in the entryway to the restaurant.  He called me to say that he was on his way but something bizarre happened with the phone call and I never actually got to talk to him before he got to the restaurant.  He definitely earned major points for calling to say that he was going to be late and paying for dinner.  We finished dinner, hung around Barnes and Noble, and then went to the beach with my friend, Randi.  I didn't really think he liked me too much, but we started talking about things we both wanted in life and it seemed like we wanted a lot of the same things.  Even more points...Chris made sure he IMed me when he got home so that I knew he got home safely. 


Chris:  After class I drove out to the restaurant in NJ to meet Lindsay.  all and all it was a pretty boring date, but for random people met on the internet, this is ok.  I also met her best friend and hung around her town, all of which seemed pretty normal.  Unlike most people I have met off the the internet, lindsay was pretty much as advertised.  It was definately worth a second look.
