Ok, well. I know I don't really know any of you very well. But I need some luck.
I haven't dated since my husband was killed in 04. It just never felt right, and still really dosn't. But I am going to give it a go anyway.
My little sister has been bugging me to meet this friend of her's ever since she moved in with me a few months ago. So, I called her this morning when I woke up and told her to set it up.
Mam, I wish you all the luck to be had. Being and living alone is not a good way. I hope you find true happiness with someone who cares as much for you as you do him.

This is a big step. Please avoid the mistake I have seen so many people do during my lifetime - don't go into a blind panic to be Mrs. Someone hooking up with the wrong person.
Take a lot of time. Remember each of you will have a great amount of life experiences plus expectations in a new relationship.
It is better to remain single than to wear a wedding ring of misery.
However, every coin has two sides and this could be a real win-win situaiton so I do wish you the best.
Just stay objective and take a lot of time before letting go of your emotions.
Best of luck to you, Amanda. Believe me when i say this....it's much easier to know what you DON'T want in a significant other, rather than looking for the things you DO want. I know it sounds kinda off-the-wall, but the good stuff will all fall into place that way....you'll see.
Good luck to ya, it's a hard step to take, but once taken I'm sure you will come to find a piece of yourself you forgot was there. I hope it goes well for you, and make sure you mention you're a shooter, if he's a pri@k it'll scare him and if he's cool (ie. likes guns) it'll be a great conversation and possible second date!

Thank you Amanda. I did not intend the Mam to be offensive. My sincere apology.
Oh dear,no apology is needed. I didn't find it offensive. I was merely trying to say that we are all friends here. Sometimes intent in a post is hard to convey on the internet. Im sorry.
Thank you all for your support. It means a lot to me.
I really don't know too much about the guy. She is keeping our details from each other. All I know is his name and profession, attorney. And that is all he knows about me.
Once again thank you. Friday is the day. Apparently my sister told him that I like shooting, so after dinner he wants to take me to the range to teach me how to shoot really well.
So, how bad should I lead him on before I actually start trying to shoot well?

don't lead him on, if he's a good marksman maybe you'll learn something from him, if not then you teach him a thing or two. dazzle him with your brains and beauty.
and your aim.

Very good point guys, and even if he isn't very good I am sure I will learn something. Everyone can learn something from everyone else if they allow it. Even if that person doesn't know what they are doing.
