A few weeks ago I started a thread about feeling scared about the prospect of dating again after a being single since becoming pregnant with my DD, who is 2 years old.
Within days of writing that thread, I was out with some friends on a rare night out and met a really nice guy. We got on straight away, he seems kind, funny, we never seem to be without things to say etc. I really like him and have hopes it could lead to a relationship etc. We meet up whenever we can for dates and have had a great time in each others company etc.
Because of my DD I invited him for a meal at mine last night. I am at the tail end of a cold, thought about maybe cancelling but after some rest and a hot bath in the afternoon actually felt OK so decided to go ahead. Anyway, he got to mine, I was'nt a sniffling, sneezing mess or anything, but it became apparent that I was actually a bit under the weather, tired etc. I was also aware of my DD who was asleep the whole time so I suppose I was quite distracted by that too. And the fact that it was the first time I've had a man friend round to my house. I guess I was'nt my usual chatty self or being the "hostess with the mostess" etc. I explained how I felt and he was very understanding and reassuring about it but now I just feel like I might have put him off or that he won't want to see me again. I've had lots of shitty relationships in the past so am a bit insecure and don't know if I am just thinking too much into this. He did say that he wanted to see me over the weekend, so I guess that's something.
