The other day I was asked if I've invested in some "single girl underwear" now that I'm dating again. This was confusing at first because I've been single for quite some time, and since no one sees my gitch but me, it tends to be more on the 'comfortable and lived-in' end of the scale. What my friend was asking though, was whether I had some sexy, lacy, uncomfortable, 'just in case' lingerie for if one of these dates goes really well.
[Insert panic attack here.]
In concentrating my efforts on actually getting a date, I had completely overlooked the possibility that, at some point, if things go well, some poor guy is probably going to see me in my underwear.
That lucky, lucky man.
So....sexy.
Don't get me wrong, I am nowhere near having to worry about this stuff yet. (It's going to take a LOT more dates with Josh before I even bother shaving my legs.) But as someone who is usually prepared for most things, my unpreparedness with the physical aspect of dating totally caught me off guard. I feel like I'm 16 again -- totally lacking confidence and completely without 'game'. I don't know how to flirt anymore, let alone make the first move, and reading signals was never one of my strengths. This stuff used to be a lot easier!
So nevermind panty problems, that can wait... give me some tips for flirting! How can I hint that I'm interested in Josh as more than a friend, so that I'm not the one that has to make any moves? That's too advanced for me at this point. (If I can't figure out this step, there's no point in going down the soul-crushing road of trying on size XXL lingerie.)
A little help, readers?
Oh, and before I forget...
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
