So, I had met him once and as crazy adventurous as I was, I had decided on an overnight road trip as a second date. My cousins begged me not to go, they almost couldn’t sleep and I was being lectured how crazy stupid I was. They were happy I started dating, but didn’t expect me to make such stupid decisions like go on a road trip with someone I’ve only met once. But this guy seemed harmless. He was a whole tad bit older than I am, so what harm could he possibly do and he was so charming. Yeah I was lucky he was harmlessly charming.

Picked me up in the morning with croissants and off we went on the road. It was an almost 4-hour road trip and by the time we reached we were so tired and hungry we checked into the hotel. And yes, this was the one time I did not shave any body parts of mine as I was proudly hairy. I also honestly thought it was going to be an innocent road trip with an overnight stay in a hotel with two beds. We would probably chat, go out, have dinner and watch TV. I promise that was what I honestly thought, which was why I didn’t shave.

Well as soon as we reached the hotel to freshen up before we got something to eat, I regretted the fact that I didn’t shave and had comfortable granny panties on. It seemed that even though he was very much older than I was, it seemed I was the one with thoughts either way too old or way too young for my age. I actually thought we were going to freshen up before we had lunch, but of course we didn’t. In stead we “spontaneously” kissed, undressed, not freshened up just yet, got entangled in broad daylight with the curtains open, freshened up, got entangled again and finally freshened up before the long craved lunch.

This man was nice, I didn’t talk much with him, because I really liked him and I was afraid to blurt out things he wouldn’t like about me as I desperately wanted to be liked. But I was also new in the dating game, so I was touching base what to expect. And because I wasn’t talking much, I was listening and observing a lot. And from this particular person I learned a lot, at least one important thing to have a open mind, to go explore and have road trips. It seemed by getting to know this person, I had once again started to getting to know myself a little more through him. We ended up doing road trips to all ten districts of the country within three weeks.
