Shayla - Date #20: Velociraptor*

Name*: Velociraptor

Date Description: We went to one of my favorite restaurants, WINGERS! It was a little embarrassing that when he asked me what he should get, since he'd never been before, I could personally recommend almost everything on the menu. Whoops! This was definitely a laughing date. Mr. Raptor has some funny stories up his sleeve!

Best Quality: Velociraptor is very sure of himself, but not in a cocky, stuck-up way. No, he hasn't figured out exactly what he wants to do for the rest of his life, but he has a quiet confidence that is quite intriguing.

Highlight of Date: Listening to Velociraptor tell the stories from his childhood just cracked me up! Seriously, I'm laughing again just thinking about it. His mannerisms just about killed me--I don't think he realizes how fun he is to watch when he tells stories. If he does I couldn't tell because of his humility!

What I Admired: I admire Mr. Raptor's ability to let his personality show! I think a lot of people are afraid, or guarded probably is a better word, of showing their personality on a first, and especially a blind, date. Velociraptor just put it out there (at least I think? Maybe he's not really funny and it was all a facade). We had a great time!

How do you know the person you're on a date with? Blind date, set up by the crazy girl that I just love SO MUCH!

Describe the date in one word? Pleasant

Thanks Velociraptor, for the laughs. Seriously, you don't know how much I needed it. :)
