Some context: We met on Okcupid. Both had minimal, discrete profiles. This was before the internet dating scene became so normal and widely accepted. Each of us had a few profile pics up just showing our faces. Firing messages back and forth and knowing we were within close distance of each other (2 miles), we exchanged numbers and felt we should meet up. After a few text messages, I called her on my way home from work the next day. She enthusiastically answered the call, almost caught by surprise and intrigued to hear my voice. We got a sense of each other from a playful and teasing conversation. She was well spoken (slightly posh), soft voice and a cute laugh / chuckle. I started building a picture in my head around what she looked like. I knew she’d be doing the same. She text’d me right back after talking “I can’t wait to meet you now ;)”. We left things open but agreed drinks for Friday night.
