There are some nice guys out there.

I'm kind of a stickler for spelling and grammar.  If a guy sends me a poorly written message on plentyoffish, I usually don't respond.  And I get a lot of messages from guys who don't seem to have a good grasp on the English language.  So when I received a funny, smart, well-written message from Craig, I was intrigued.  Also, he's tall and he's an attorney for the federal government.  (Swoon.)  And we have been on four dates so far.  That is twice as many as any other guy from this website.

On the first date, we met at a place in Santa Monica that has a great happy hour with old-fashioned cocktails.    http://www.copadoro.com/  During the course of our conversation, I mentioned that I was taking a class in international law.  It turns out that Craig went to law school at Yale, and he is kind of an expert at international law (He wrote an article that was published in Yale's law journal... that's definitely a big deal).  After we met he agreed to give me his class outlines, so I can thank him for helping me graduate from law school.

For the second date, we went to Downtown L.A. Art Walk.  http://www.downtownartwalk.com/  So we know that this guy has some culture.  On the third date, we went to The Museum of Jurassic Technology.  I know that sounds weird, but it was actually really neat.  http://www.mjt.org/  Finally, on our fourth date we went to see a movie - Cave of Forgotten Dreams. 

I really like this guy, but there is one catch.  He is moving to Washington, D.C. in a few months for a judicial clerkship.  I'm still trying to decide how to proceed with this situation.  Any advice?

  1. Keep him on the line (in the fishing sense), who know's where you're moving soon!

  2. Go for it. You only live once and if it is meant to be it will work out!
