I Cannot Wait to Post This

Here is Luis. We met one night recently and really hit it off. Of course you can see he is super handsome but what a nice guy too. He is Mexican and teaches special education students. He is 30, drives an SUV, and took ballet classes for 11 years. He is the youngest child of 15! When I heard that I told him that if he was American he would be on tv. I was smitten. We hooked up the first night we met - sometimes I am a devil. Well we stayed in touch and we saw each other a couple of weeks later. I was really starting to like him so on that second meeting - which went as fantastic as the first - I said no to the hook up because I wanted to get to know him more. He understood and was a bit pleased by it. Perhaps that is kinda odd - I mean a hook up is one thing but if I am interested then I hold out. Is that a bit twisted or just residue from Puritanical influences?

We continued to stay in touch and a couple more weeks went by and we met up again. I am delighted as it is light and enjoyable and felt good. During this third meeting he unexpectedly pops open his cell phone and shows me a picture of an ultrasound. I thought it very strange that he showed it to me. I asked what it was and he told me it was a baby. I advised him that I understand what an ultrasound is but was curious if it was his niece or nephew. He replied it was his child. Alrighty then - time for Tequila! Was I ever shocked (that is possibly the most understated sentence on all of this blog). Sure I was still in the process of getting to know him, but a baby? I would never have guessed in a million years. Plus the delivery of the news added to the what the hell just happened feeling of the situation. He said that he had a girl friend for a year and they broke up 3 months ago and she just told him she was pregnant. WOW.

He is a good guy. He did not have to tell me all at this point and I would never have known. When I think of his delivery perhaps it was just the easiest way for him to get the story across to me. However all said and done, it did buy him a one way ticket to friendville. I have no problems with a man who has children but a man who is in the process of having a child, well that is a horse of a different color. That is a life changing event and really not the best time to be trying to get to know someone - in my small opinion. So I am curious and will tread lightly continuing to get to know him in a platonic manner. There is no denying, if nothing else, he certainly is entertaining to be around and absolutely enjoyable to look at.
