I did it. not that i really set out to, but official drought time was 4 months, 19 days.
It rained.
I doubt it will turn into anything else - as we have had a couple of encounters in the past, which have resulted in him disappearing on me. I don't know that I'm the type of girl he would like to introduce to his friends and family either, but I have no expectations, and currently I have no demands. a good place to be really.
I'm going to take this opportunity as one to just be me, not try to be something I might think he wants, go with the gut, roll with the blankets and see how art can just be.
BTW: this was my most successful experience of internet dating - and I won him on an auction about 4/5 years ago!
