So I got to Shabbobabo’s house close to “leaving for temple time.” Yes, I had met him almost a month ago at an industry event where he told me about this and how I should come along with the fact he worked for Medical Marijuana which was NOT entirely true. Totally platonic? Maybe? I remember him being a flirt, but totally cute. So, Shabbo (Shabbat) and Babo (nickname for Babson, same small business school SOD’s lil brother went to college at) had some people come by before the Shabbat Service. We had it on calendar for weeks that I’d come to this, so leading up we were fb messaging back and forth. (ya, I dropped him a note after the event we met at and he emailed me back and added me on FB…fine).
I get there…He looked totally cute and I loved his apartment! He was trying to introduce me to people, but then found I was carrying my own (ha!). He asked if the girls I was with or I cared for weed. I said I’m not opposed, the next thing he brings me this drink with weed in it…Pot soda? HAHA. I made the girls I was with drink it first and he smiles at me and comes back and is like…I’m like ya not happening! Who drinks that?! So then he put OJ in it…which is like heartburn issue #1 for me, so I politely declined and watched him drink it:)
So we were off to temple…he ended up sitting next to me and when we started singing songs he would like lean into me. I would make little random comments to him too, but I didn’t want to be overly flirty/touchy, though slightly tipsy. After the service we went upstairs to where they were serving wine and some food. I was hanging out with the girls I met at his place and ShabboBabo was busy schmoozing (as we Jews like to say) with others there. So fast forward, these girls and I were standing together when I forget the convo, but Shabbobabo is with us and goes to me, SOD, “I like your necklace, it’s beautiful.” I think my face turned red because I just wasn’t easily taking a compliment! ODD! He’s like “it’s the women that makes a necklace beautiful.” To which I said, “thank you, it was a gift to myself” and we smiled at eachother;) And then he looked at the other girl with us and he’s like that…eh (to her necklace)…she’s like so you are saying I’m not beautiful!? hahahaha
I was planning to leave and went up to him and said “thank you for inviting me this was a lot of fun” I don’t remember what he said after, but he hugged me and was like “ok, well I’ll see you soon!”
That was that, I left as did he…I think he flew out to FL early on a flight this AM? I realize we didnt’ exchange ‘barcodes’ (for bbm) haha…nor does he have my phone digits, but I’ll presume…that I should let him find me on Facebook? OR???
