Christmas Boyfriend Part 2

Ok so here is the truth.

He is 7 years younger than I am.

I am a cougar I know.

But there is something about him. 

He is cheeky, funny, a fool.

He reminds me of being in school and if a boy likes you, they are mean to you.  That is exactly what he does.  He walked past and gives me the finger.  He messes up my hair.  He tells me how terrible I look.  And then he will wink at me, blow me a kiss and slap my behind as I walk past.

Needless to say, I was unsure about how our first date would turn out.  

What I didn't expect for him to be so damn sweet.  

He paid for everything.  It was just going to be us going for a drink and hanging out, but he insisted on going to the movies which was fine (but kinda made it seem like a real date).  He opened doors for me and had perfect manners.  We shared a cheeky little kiss in the movies but he didn't try and shove him tongue down my throat.  We simply had a little cuddle and watched the movie.  No expectations.  Once the movie was over we went to McDonalds because everywhere else was busy, just to sit down and talk.  After chatting for a good couple of hours he hits me with this cheesy line that had me on the floor.

Him: "I've got good and bad news, which do you want first?"

Me: "Bad news"

Him: "I'm really sorry but i'm super tired so I think I'm going to have to call it a night."

Me" Thats cool.  What's the good news?"

Him" You are really beautiful."

He is the first guy to actually call me beautiful to my face and I actually believed it.

So when we tried to make plans for date number 2, we came into a pickle.  As time was limited, due to my flights, we figured the only chance we would be able to get together was at a friends farewell party.  So we agreed that he would be my plus 1 and we would sort out the other details later on.

A couple of days after that, his Dad (who also works with us #notawkwardright?) pulled me aside.  His Dad is also a security guard and looked so scary when he told me not to lie to him but did I go out with his son.  When I told him I did, he asked me if i liked him because he liked me.  He then continue to try and convince me to move up North and marry his son, because he needs a good girl in his life like me.

So you know, this was moving a lot faster than I thought it would of.

When Friday came around, i agreed to pick him up from work as he had no idea where he was going.  I bumped into his Dad, who kind of gave me a strange look of corrupting his son because he was leaving work early, and his boss, who tried to make me feel bad for making him leave work.

We got to the party and had a great night, until the next day.

I agreed to take him to work as he has a fear of the tube and I'm not mean enough to force him to figure it out on his own.  As we left each other, he told me he would message me later.  As he had no working phone, and from his actions from last year, I told him that he wouldn't but that I appreciated the lie.

Now here I am... on the other side of the world, and he is actually messaging me back.  

Stupid men aren't meant to be this hard.

Aussie out
