Yeah if you don't get excited and nervous you are doing it wrong.
I like doing blind dates... More of thrill and rush not knowing what or who you are going to encounter.
You don't and can't do anything about it... That's part of the side effect of dating and meeting people for the first time(s).

if he truly is interested, and it isn't just a stroke of luck/convenience, he WILL come back around.
if you're not ready or in a position to start dating again, don't let this guy wine and dine you to get the shaft. and women b*tch about bitter men. it's because things like this happen.
OR he's just looking for a date of convenience/opportunity hoping you'll give up your treasure
in either case, is it fair to him or to you?
DTA: very true damsel, but this should be communicated before hand. OP hasn't said how she's met this guy (if it's a dating/datehookup site, then clearly he has some elevated expectations of what could come out of the meet and greet) so i'm guessing it needs to be spelled out that it's a casual and strictly platonic get together

@6969 Blind dates? I've never done that. That would really make me nervous. Tell us about one or two you've been on. What do you do if you dont like what you see? Besides kill your friend that set it up.

so you yourself basically said you're not ready to date
have you set up this meeting on the premise of SEEKING a relationship with this guy?
or are you just wanting to be platonic and casual? and have you communicated this with him?

@dixie that's what's so weird. We've barely talked on here. Thats why I didn't know what to say. He doesnt do the forums. Fairly new on here. I think he's squeezing me in just because he'll be in town. I can't say if its casual or a relationship. We haven't talked enough.

See that's what I say.... There is no contract saying you have to get into a relationship,'see them again, get married to them after a meet and greet.
The problem is everyone thinks their time is too valuable to spend on something simple as a drink or a bite to eat. Serious it's just a drink.

while valid, there are a lot of guys who whine about being used for a free coffee/meal/etc. if someone is led to believe they're going in with the potential of earning a second date out of it, as in DATING, and the other person has no intention of ever going down that path, is that entirely fair? i feel that should be communicated. and then go do whatever it is you want to do together

this is my over active imagination at work, but be sure that this "pass through town" isn't a cheating man's weekend escape.
i've come across them. "oh yeah, i'll be in your area for holiday/work training/etc" and come to find out he has a girlfriend/wife/fiance back wherever he came from.
just be careful. especially since he's new to DH and hasn't been active on the forums to dig in a little deeper.

It is a meet.....and
I am sorry luv....but many ppl.read wayyyyy to.much into a meet or a date...
It is...just that.
I dnt over anyalize my clothes..but I also don't. dress to "impress"...I dress as I always do....no false bs with me....
My nails are done...for me..not him....
My perfume is for me....not him.
I dnt understand all the undo pressure ppl put themselves under....then if the other person dsnt flip.the hell.out also and present a non realistic front...they are pissed off and.let down...
I seperate men frm thousands of dollars in biz clothes...they are good enough for a meet

I go in with no expectations. It's a drink and or a bite to eat. If if there is something there is usually develops. Yes it might be one sided at times, but both sides have to be aware and realistic that may happen.

it's not christmas though. it's three days after. he could have told his wife he was going to have a christmas party with college buddies, but was coming to a new town for a wild fling away from his ball and chain.
stranger things HAVE happened. just be on alert.
now don't nobody go accusing me of being such a doubtful debbie. i don't assume the worst, per say. i think about the worst possible scenario, and that way i'm not unaware of blatant clues present themself.
