Update

You guys!!!

Guess what?

He rang!!!

He actually rang!!

Hold on 

Rewind a little bit 

 I was reading all your comments

And most of them were saying how I should text him back

Be casual but confident

And be a strong independent woman

Bite the bullet

Put myself out there 

I had decided not to text him until I got back from my trip on Wednesday 

My family and I are taking my nephew away for a couple of days for his fifteenth birthday

And I was glad of the distraction

But then earlier on

I just all of a sudden found some courage and sent him the following text

Hey, just wondering if you still want to meet up, I'm away until Wednesday but can meet up after that if you're still up for it?

I sent it 

And threw the phone away

I honestly wasn't expecting an answer 

I was doing it more just so I could say that I tried 

And would then be able to let it go

I went to make a cup of tea 

And when I picked my phone up again

There was a missed call from an unknown number

I started wondering who it was

And then

A couple of minutes later

My phone rang again

And it was him!

I took a deep breath and tried to remain calm

I answered after a few rings

Hello

Hello is that Ruby

Yes this is her

Oh hey this is The Plumber

Can you talk?

Yea sure I can talk

I'm just packing here as we are heading away tomorrow

I'm sorry I didn't get back to you the other night

I wasn't too gone on the whole cafe idea

You sure you wouldn't like to go to the cinema?

Oh yea I would like to go if you'd still like to. Is there anything you'd like to see ?

Sure we'll have a look during the week

Ok well why don't you give me a ring Wednesday or Thursday and we'll go from there

Ok sound I'll speak to you then

See you later

Bye 

Thankfully it wasn't as awkward as I thought it would be

I was actually calm

And he seemed kind but confident 

Yikes I can believe it actually happened

I had seriously written this one off!

So now I have a couple of days to psych myself up

Choose an outfit

Make myself as pretty and presentable as possible

But you know what?

I'm not going to take this too seriously

I'm going to have fun

And enjoy it

And not read too much in to it what ever happens happens

And I can chalk it up to experience

Again

Thank you for all your valuable support

It was really down to you guys that I mustered the courage to text him

It never ceases to amaze me

The amazing live and support that is here in our little corner of blogger

I'm away tomorrow for a couple of days 

And probably my won't get to blog

As well be in Northern Ireland

But I promise to update as soon as I can 

Until then....
