Sooner89: Greatest fear?
BoomerSuener: Whew, I thought we were talking about ice cream flavors here.
Sooner89: I think we covered all the silly stuff. Time to get real.
BoomerSuener: I don’t know, drowning maybe?
Sooner89: That’s not exactly what I was asking.
BoomerSuener: I know. But I do have a lot of drowning dreams
Sooner89: That’s disturbing.
BoomerSuener: Right? Google says it’s because I’m overwhelmed.
Sooner89: Damn. That’s even more disturbing.
Sooner89:Also: I know you can be overwhelmed, and you can be underwhelmed, but can you ever just be whelmed?
BoomerSuener: Ha! “I think you can in Europe.” I forgot about that one.
Sooner89: Seriously, how can you take things off of your plate?
BoomerSuener: I can’t, not right now.
BoomerSuener: Which I suppose leads to my fear, being a disappointment probably. Letting down my family, my mom. She died about ten years ago.
Sooner89: Wow. I’m so sorry.
BoomerSuener: Thanks. Your turn
Sooner89: Probably being too late.
BoomerSuener: What do you mean?
Sooner89: Waiting too long to settle down. I wasted a lot of time when I was young.
BoomerSuener: Perfect segue
Sooner89: Uh oh
BoomerSuener: Tell me about your ex. Or maybe about what happened?
Sooner89: She was great but it turned out I wasn’t right for her.
BoomerSuener: She left you?
Sooner89: It was a mutual decision, she wanted more than I did.
BoomerSuener: I’m sorry, break ups suck.
Sooner89: I’m sure divorce is even worse.
BoomerSuener: The absolute worst.
Sooner89: What happened?
BoomerSuener: Life. We grew apart, didn’t love each other anymore. Then as always, when the lawyers got involved, things got ugly.
Sooner89: Ugh lawyers. The worst.
BoomerSuener: Ha, You’re not secretly also a lawyer, are you?
Sooner89: No, just have plenty of experience.
BoomerSuener: So now that I’ve told you I’m afraid of disappointing my dead mother, what do you look like?
Sooner89: Oh, we’re taking a hard left, are we?
BoomerSuener: Do you mind?
Sooner89: Not at all, I want to picture you.
BoomerSuener: I asked you first.
Sooner89: I’m 6 foot 3, I work out quite a bit
BoomerSuener: That is such a dude answer! Hair color? Eye color? Beard? What are you wearing?
Sooner89: I just spit my beer all over myself
BoomerSuener: Because I asked you what you’re wearing
Sooner89: Yes, and because, hopefully, now I can ask you the same thing.
Sooner89: Brown, brown, sometimes, an old OU shirt and gray sweatpants
Sooner89: Your turn please
BoomerSuener: lol. I am 5’7’ and dark blond, I also work out a lot, spin class and weight lifting if I have to. I’m lean but not skinny. Sporty, as we’ve already talked about. I wear a size medium in most things. I’m not very tan right now but I wouldn’t say pale. Blue eyes but they look hazel sometimes.
Sooner89: Blue eyes! I can’t wait to see them.
Sooner89: …
BoomerSuener: Ha I wondered if you’d let it go
Sooner89: I am a heterosexual man.
BoomerSuener: Fair point. My PJs, which are a black spaghetti strap top and black boy shorts type undies
Sooner89: When are we going to start sending photos again?
BoomerSuener: Again? We have never discussed photos!
Sooner89: Must’ve just thought it about 1000 times
BoomerSuener: How about we talk on the phone first
Sooner89: I just want to meet you
Sooner89: When is your trip again?
BoomerSuener: Two weeks
Sooner89: Can we meet before then instead of after?
BoomerSuener: OK
Sooner89: Yessss (Napoleon Dynamite)
BoomerSuener: When and where?
Sooner89: I’ll send you a list, I know you like those
BoomerSuener: I really, really do
