2nd date with Mark

So, Mark sent me an email and asked me to dinner earlier in the week.  He never called me or texted.  Only email.  We exchanged a few emails and he wanted me to meet him at Lowe's in Pottstown.  Lowes.  Really.  Strange.  So, I wrote him back and said that under the circumstances since I've only met him once before, I would feel more comfortable meeting at a restaurant.  I googled Pottstown and suggested either Red Lobster or Trattoria Vittoria.  Actually, they were the only two I could find.  So, he wrote back:

Hmmm.  Fridays?   For a second date?  I don't mean to sound like a bitch here, but this is just all wrong.  And, follow him?  Why didn't he just say Friday's in the first place?

So, we met at T.V.  I was totally confused as to if he wanted to have dinner or what.  The restaurant is a BYOB and he had no wine.  He knew this because he had told me he went to their website after I suggested it.  So, we ended up having dinner.  It was ok.  I wouldn't say that there was a lot of chemistry there.  It was just ok.  But, as we were leaving this very small restaurant, the couple next to us introduced themselves.  Turns out that the man is a State Representative in the Penn State House of Rep's for West Caln Township.  They were very nice and very friendly.  He gave me a Butterfinger candy bar.  lol

So, we left around 8:30 and it was still broad daylight.  He hugged me goodbye and put his hand on my waist a little bit.  Then, he said "I'll give you a call".  My gut tells me that he won't call.  After all, he hasn't called before.  And, after the doctor I'm a little self-conscious about my waist.  lol  Not really.  Well, maybe a little bit.
