do more...wisely

i decided to cancel my date with this guy.  the more we talked, the more i realized that i was never going to be into him.  he wasn't just too young or had different eating habits than i did, there were other things that made it apparent.  the biggest?  in every single message we exchanged, he kept emphasizing how alone he was, how much he wanted a girl, how incredibly excited he was to meet me.  these endearing comments made it that much harder to break the date but it was the right thing to do.  he wants to be in love so badly and i'm not going to be the girl to break his heart. 

he was so incredibly cute and genuine though.  i'm positive he'll find his lady.  and i wish him the best.

do more.

the beautiful thing about okc is that you can read someone's profile before you ever speak to them.  now, we all know that people exaggerate from time to time, but at least you can see how they want the world to view them, what their writing is like (incredibly important), his relationship status (although as we learned before, that sometimes does not stop them from pursuing) and how photogenic they are.  waaaay better than when you meet a guy in a bar and you have to piece this information together over weeks and months...

so here's my dilemma:
i get this adorable message below from a boy who is way younger than i would normally date.  he's also a vegan. (i need a man who will eat meat with me.  (also eggs, butter, jello....))

he says: 

Apparently I don't meet your minimum age requirement, but wanted to say I think you're sooooooo cute! And not in a little kid way but the "want to Kiss you a whole lot" kinda way.

that's just too cute.  and so is he!  (in his defense, my drawing isn't exactly the best...)  so i messaged him back.  and he asked me out.  because i'm a lady, i insisted upon a bit more online interaction before actually meeting in person.  another couple of messages were swapped and then he asked me out AGAIN.  this is faster than i'd normally move and i really don't think it'll work out.  so do i go?

when katie and i decided to go on okc it was because of a pact we had made for the summer.  "do more."  and i think to honor that pact i have to go out with this cutie.
