Always a First Time for Everything!

I wouldn't say that Stephan went on a date with Sam (Samantha) from church, but they did meet... and they did go to the movies! Stephan's never "been to the movies" with a girl! He's never been on a real date. He told me that all the girls he's ever dated he met at a party and they just got together. It's never been like an "introduction, a getting to know one another, then getting to the point of asking a girl out and actually going somewhere nice!" He's never dressed up, picked up a girl and gone on... a date!

I was so happy for him! He did dress up. He didn't pick her up. He didn't pay for her ticket. She insisted she pay her own way. So... it wasn't a date, just a movie with a friend and that's so great! Sam seems like a very nice girl. Stephan said that she's a little shy or it seemed that way! He said maybe it was awkward for her. She's 19, but he's not sure how many guys she's been out with.

Stephan said that he wasn't nervous at all! Their movie started thirty minutes later than expected, so they had time to talk. He said that she answered his questions, but didn't really ask him any! He thought that was funny... but I also think that because she was the way she was, it gave Stephan a little more confidence in himself, in a good way.

I told Stephan that he should get to know her! Even if he finds a good friend... that's a very wonderful thing! You can't have too many good friends! Plus, you never know... she may be "the one!"

Time will tell..............
