Nah. Just have fun with her and see where it goes. You'd be surprised at how "devout" some Christians are. And even if she turns out to be a Bible thumper it's no big deal. Like I said just have fun. But don't compromise your beliefs for....um...well you knowOrmiston said:

Couldn't agree more. She did write me back this morning and says she's fired up about a picnic. She says she's never been on one. I've never had a picnic go bad as long as the weather was good. I'm really just looking forward to the weekend in general and I'm not going to worry about the details.
That's good man. Keep that mind set. Personally, I go into these situations with no expectations and just make sure that the person has a good time. Sounds like you're doing the same. I've found that it is the best mindset to have for yourself.Ormiston said:

From The Cardero Archives
1.Take a woman out to dinner and order an anniversary cake (complete with singing waiters/waitresses). She will either feel completely romantic or completely embarrassed (you are going for completely romantic) either way she will never forget it. If she doesnt call, do not concern yourself (she wasnt the one anyway) because all her female friends (who did think it was romantic) will be contacting you shortly.
2. On your first date, stage a fake robbery with your friends and defend her honor (youre in!). It should be the first and last time you have to be dishonest with her. Years later, come clean (like your 10th Wedding Anniversary) youll both enjoy a good laugh.

*** Chick Update *** Chick Update *** Chick Update ***
To all interested parties,
My trip last weekend to visit The Chick, referred to as Sara in the following, went better than I'd expected. She lives in a pretty small town and I'd say we were the top story of the weekend (tied with the local drag race on Sunday). Anytime I went anywhere by myself, someone would inevitably ask me, "Where's Sara?" She told me the same continued for her after I came home.
We spent the majority of the weekend together and had a blast. I've always enjoyed getting to know new people and she's exceptional (too good for me). We never seem to run out of things to talk about either. I met a lot of her friends and they all seem to like me. I also got TWO 10-second frenchers. :beach:
But, the most interesting part of the story is that I'm at home right now and she'll be here in about five hours and will be staying for the next two days. Believe it or not, she had a trip planned prior to meeting me to come into my area (300 miles from her home). Once we met, she took a couple days off and simply extended this weekend so we could spend some time together. How cool is that?
There are a couple of glaring problems with the situation though. For one, she lives 300 miles away and, secondly, I'm still married. Let's just say my marital situation was brought up more than once during my trip. Then, just to make me feel better, on the first morning back a coworker showed me an article on MSN called "We're Dating and He's Married". The writer basically tells a woman in a similar situation to Sara to drop the guy on his ***. I showed Sara the article and told her that she now has fair warning. We laughed about that for a few days.
The distance between us isn't that big of a problem. It just makes me sad that I won't be able to see her as often as I'd like to. Interestingly, she had applied for a job in the area prior to meeting me and does plan to move out this way eventually.
Well, that's pretty much the current situation. She'll be here today and we're both psyched. My roommate's going to cook a big dinner. I'm sure we'll all do a little drinking and then I'll try and get another kiss. Wish me luck!
Wish me luck!Sincerely (yeah right!),

What a weekend. :drunk:
Thanks for the kind words you guys. She left this morning and I'm feeling some heartache.
I think we have a serious situation here. I don't know why, but I think she really likes me. The weekend was exquisite.
I was thinking the exact same thing.

I had wondered a couple of times during the week if you two hit it off. I'll get that necklace out tomorrow in the mail that you won from me and maybe you can give it to Sara!

I'm happy for you.
Maybe the distance thing isn't such a bad thing right now...you can work out the little quirks of your "marriage" (you know...finalize the divorce) and who knows...
Sounds great and I'm glad you let us know how things went! Hope everything goes well and I'm wishing for you...kisses galore.

Not that I have authority or experience to hand out advice (Seriously, shouldn't we have a dating subforum for us poor sobs with no luck! haha. Saw it on a Christian forum once "He Said" and another "She Said")
I would probably cover the religious differences pretty early in any relationship (like I've ever been in one). In any case, she sounds like she has more than a passing interest in you.
Therefore, if her faith is a major part in her life, and you want her to be a part of your life, its an issue that has to be resolved. And if it cant be resolved best it happens now.
Just my 1 cent worth.
