So last night I went on a little date.
He picked me up on his mo-ped and we scootered our
way down to Zupas for a tasty dinner.
The weather was great, the scooter ride was fun
and he even let me take the scooter
for a spin by myself and trusted me enough to drive us both home.
A little scary, but way fun.
Anyways....so we pull up to my place and I get off the scooter.
He stays seated on the scooter and I'm standing a
few feet away and we're just talking.
Now this guy and I have been friends for a while.....
so at this point I was thinking do I give him a hug? Do nothing?
It was kind of a hard situation since he was sitting on the
scooter with both hands on the handlebars....
so I was like ''Well, thanks again for dinner and I'll see you later''...
and before I knew it we were giving each other a high-five.
How awkward is that?!?!
What's even more awkward is that I'm the one who initiated it!
And that him and I were both at the same FHE dating panel activity
this past Monday where they mentioned high-5's and handshakes as a no-go.
Just to clarify, I had NEVER given a high-5 on a date before.
I turned away to walk into my house and immediately
thought ''Oh my gosh, did that really just happen? That is so unlike me...
I wonder if he even really noticed?....How weird....".
I don't know if the high-5 came out because there was a
scooter interfering or what the deal was...but oh well! It happened.
And definitely makes for a funny story.

Oh my gosh, that is too funny! It's almost as bad as what I did to the guy I was dating my last semester at school. He went to give me a hug and a kiss and I literally pushed him away, gave him a handshake, and walked away. Without consciously doing so. :/
