I waited for him anxiously for about 30 minutes. He found me taking a soda and ordered for a beer. He asked why I was not drinking beer and I told him I was Born-again. He asked why I got saved and I told him it was because my friends had received miracles from God. I told him to get saved but he said he needed convincing reasons. After dinner, I asked to leave because I always report for duty very early in the morning. He asked me to wait until he was done with his dinner. I obliged and thereafter we left the place. He asked if I was leaving early because I was afraid of someone else but I told him I was single and living alone.
What were his strong points? He is gentle. He showed me care all through.
Where did he disappoint you? He takes alcohol and I do not.
What if he invites you for an outing? It will depend on what stage our friendship is at.

I was surprised that she was not as old as I had anticipated. I thought I would meet somebody of 30 years or above. After exchanging greetings, I asked if she was the person I was meant to meet and she said she was. We both had rice and chicken for dinner. I later asked for her phone number and she gave it to me.
Her most striking attributes... Her smile and skin complexion.
Anything she needs to work on? Her dress code. She is a young lady and should not wear long skirts.
What next? We shall stay in touch and see what comes out of it.
