AHHH okay, for those who wanted to know -- I just got back from the date, and it was really good. we went to barnes and noble then chilis, and the whole time we talked about books and deep philosophical stuff, which is better than being awkward the whole time. then he got us dessert, and he gave me these cute stickers and walked me out to the car with his arm. he's older and good looking, and he checks off all my boxes, and he's already setting up our second date.
I'm so confused tbh I'm not used to good things happening to me.
