I think I'm going to fall in love

So I met someone about 6 weeks ago that I took a liking to. I didn't ask her out at first because we were in a situation where dating may not have been entirely appropriate. She is a customer of mine from Acura (she drives a TSX). I took an interest in her immediately. I knew that she was special the second I met her. I recently left Acura to take another opportunity, and decided to call her up last week. I basically was calling to let her know I was leaving the business and also to follow up on something she was having taken care of on her car. I wanted to ask her out, but I didn't for some odd reason.

I decided to call her again Saturday and ask her out. She loved the idea to get together. I told her it took a bit to work up the courage to call, and she was glad I did. Basically, we talked a bit over the last couple days and we decided to get together yesterday for lunch and then dinner. We had a great time.

We both knew that we had something special on our hands. We're basically jumping in head-first. I'm really excited about this woman. She's amazing. She works in a similar field (financial analyst) and we can actually have really great conversations. I can barely believe I've met someone like her. I'm so lucky. Wish us luck.

There's a quote that I really like that pretty much sums things up:

"In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire is burst into flame by an encounter with another human being." - Albert Schweitzer

I'd believe it was really love if I hadn't seen the "special bond" you formed with just about any girl who posted on here

Does Ms. "I think I'm going to fall in love" know about Acurazine? She can learn a lot about you.

8-5 for an i-banker is not bad. Most people I know who are i-bankers work an average of 80 hours a week, so you've got it pretty good. Again, congrats, man

Thanks again. The new woman laughs at me about this new job. I am still trying to get used to this type of schedule...and the salary base.
