Before we ever even went out on a date, I was texting him one night while I was at Singo at a local Mexican place. I sent a picture of the song sheet, but it wouldn’t go through for some reason, and he said he “must not have good reception at this Mexican restaurant” and I about leaped out of my skin. I thought maybe the photo had gone through and he could somehow tell it was a mexican place from the tabletop, so he was teasing me. Nope, turns out he was just also out eating Mexican, too.

Once, within the first year of us dating, I had thought randomly about how I went to fish hatcheries sometimes growing up, and maybe that could be a cool date thing (and I still don’t know why because I don’t even like fish like that, but he enjoys fishing so I guess maybe that’s what made me think of it lol) and a few weeks later, we were just out cruising around the mountains where he lives and he said “oh, I have an idea where to go!” and when I asked where, he just said “you’ll see!” and pulls up at a fish hatchery.

A couple months ago, I had decided to order some new lingerie and start randomly surprising him with it sometimes, and we’re on the phone a couple days after me ordering it and he says something about me wearing a thong—except I didn’t own any at the time. I had JUST ordered some to surprise him with.

A couple weeks ago, I was thinking about Christmas gifts to get him, and I really can’t think of THINGS, so I started thinking experiences and I thought maybe a couples massage or something like that - partially for me, too, I guess, but mostly because I don’t think he’s ever had one or would feel comfortable going alone? Anyway, the next time I saw him, he mentioned something about booking a couples massage. He has mentioned it occasionally throughout our relationship (as something that would be cool to do), but the timing was funny.
