Last week Jen challenged me to go on 3 dates in 30 days. Not a big deal you say? To me it is! Ah! I'm so nervous about this whole thing! As Jen said in the initial post, I literally have no dating experience. I have relationship experience that far surpasses most people my age, but someone a decade younger than me could school me on casual dating. I've never just gone on a date or two with a person and that was it.

So after the accepting the challenge I asked Jen for some help on updating my OKC profile. Jen and I sat down together and made some edits. I changed my profile pic to one of me that shows off my boobs, lol, this is no time to be shy. While I was still on the site making updates I got a ton of views, but no conversions.

Then emails started to roll in. My nerves went up but I started with the simple act of writing back. Even if I wasn't sure that I actually wanted to go on a date. That alone was a challenge at first, but one that I quickly got past.

As the next couple of days went by I got some emails from some dudes that I actually found interesting and attractive - yeeeeeeeeeeees!

And yesterday a dude asked me to meet up this weekend! I can't because I am going to San Diego, buuut I'll work it out for next week. Score!

I'm nervous, and anxious but excited to share! Stay tuned! <3
