Well at least you can say that you felt a spark! That’s always the feeling you’re chasing. Excited for you if it works out, and if not, onto the next one 😊
After a terrible marriage and divorce, I landed myself a beautiful, bearded hunk of a man who speaks with an incredibly sexy Italian accent and treats my heart like it’s the most precious thing he has ever owned. I hope the beard is your lucky charm too, Cassie. 😉
I am also divorced (with kid) and found a bearded hunk of a man! He's my IT nerd hunk of a man. Love him!!! Might've taken me 40 years to find him, but it was well worth it.
My stepdad is one of the best things that ever happened to me. He even adopted me after I became an adult. I’m glad you’re open to dating someone with a child. You never know where it might lead.
Hopefully he is mature and grounded, which as a successful single dad he would have to be . This sounds like it is may be the beginning of something potentially great for you. And I appreciate that you are approaching this new experience with dating a single parent with an open mind and heart. There is a stigma to single parents being undatable or kryptonite in society, as weird as that sounds, so thank you for letting this be a fun adventure .
No one is giving it to you straight. You’re lacking self confidence in general, until you find that you will never be able to successfully date someone with a child.
So proud of you for putting yourself out there and being kind to yourself. You did your best and good things are headed your way. Rooting for you!! 💜 Btw, you looked lovely!
Cassie, put your side hair behind your ears! It looks a little bit like orthodox? jewish curly sidelocks. Not too much just would look better tucked in. Just wanted to give you a style heads up, even though i will get hate galor. I know, im not the style police 😩. Not trying to be negative. In fact Im so glad the date went well!🙂 Love the sparkly eyeliner. Wish i could do it but i have hooded eyes. Take care 😃😃😃❤❤❤
Okay but let people have their own style and thing. Y'all pick a part people then say oh I'm not trying to be negative. And y'all wonder why people are self conscious and insecure.
@@witchingbrew3 Its just an easy hairstyle suggestion that can be adjusted in a second, literally. I was as polite as I can be given Im not a native English speaker. 🤷🏽♀️ maybe the name for the long curl next to the ears ive seen in some Jewish men its not called what i called it or it has some negative connotation im unaware of.
Interesting to me that you find it off putting when someone doesn’t list their children on a dating app. I don’t list my kids on dating apps because I don’t want to be targeted as a single mother. What if someone sees that I have kids and they either 1) think I’m desperate to find a “dad figure” and thus easily manipulated, or 2) are a pedophile? Maybe I’m a bit paranoid. I do tell people on the first date or after some initial interaction, however.
I gave a guy who had two kids a chance even though I never wanted to date someone with kids. We're now happily married, I love my step children, and I have never been in such a happy and healthy relationship. All the best, I hope this is your person xx
Your boundaries and ideals on dating are excellent! Yes, hiding a kid's existence is not a good sign! Not replying and stringing someone on without a valid reason? Cut that trash off your line and cast again! I respect that you keep trying, keep being as open as you can be, and are sharing your thoughts with us. You are amazing, and we ALL want you to meet your nerd!
Your face when the date was over 🥰 I was listening and closing my eyes while doing so (kids are napping so I’m just resting my eyes😅) but I had to open them and see your face cause I could hear the excitement and happiness Omg Go Cassie GO GO GO Cassie! 🥳
It’s so nice to see you excited after a date! I hope you hear from him again, but if you don’t, it’s his loss. I think your approach to dating of what will be will be, is perfect. And as a parent, I think the 9:30 time slot for a video chat makes sense. It allows the parent to still be available to their kid if need be, but also it’s late enough to where they should be asleep and won’t interrupt.
Hi! So I’ve watched all of your “first dates” and THIS one is the first where our “in the bed after date chat” seems to be the most excited you’ve been. Which I’m so happy and giddy with you! You HAVE to keep us updated. Fingers crossed. 💜💜
I’m so happy for you that the date went well! Fingers crossed that there’s a second date and get to know each other more. Opposites can attract and balance each other. It’s so nice to see how excited you were after the date. :)
I saw more of your home in this video than usual. I think I REALLY dig your taste in design style (cool mint filing cabinet w/rounded corners & stool w/ angled wooden legs… the print on those fresh bedsheets & the white slat headboard. 😍) Can you do an apartment tour sometime, showcasing your “interior design” & decor, etc? 🙂 also: so happy for you that you had fun on your date!! 🥰
Be aware of the man looking for good ‘mom material.’ Which I’m sure you would be, but it’s about the connection between you two. Good luck Cassie. 😃😃😃😃
Thank you for the dating video…I can really relate to the “over talking” nervous habit. What will be, will be. I’m happy you took the chance on someone outside your typical guy. Who knows, right?
Omg. I love the chatty bedtime stuff. Feels like BFFs hanging out. I bet majority of us would totally come over for pizza and drinks to chat alllll about it!!!
I’m so happy for you ! I hope it all goes well. But my personal opinion (my opinion, please take with a grain of salt) dating a single dad when you yourself don’t have any kids of your own either and desire to have children … I’d be wary of that personally. I don’t have any children and single dads were definitely completely crossed out of my list of potentials back when I was dating (for a good reason). Now I am with a man of my dreams and he has no children and neither do I. We want to have our own. I’m just saying, do not settle ! And single dads are not easier to date. Always another woman involved … I mean there’s nothing wrong with that if you can handle that. I hope all goes well. I’m so glad to see you happy 🥰
I've been with my husband for 15 years but I still vividly remember that insane nervous energy of the first few dates. But I went on that 1st date with the attitude of I'm going to be myself and if he's into that great. If not, we won't waste each other's time. Good luck girl!
One of the first calls I had with my now husband was over the phone. I am a nervous talker as well. I talked the entire time. Totally didn’t mean to. We laugh, 15 years later, that he said after we hung up “well maybe next time I’ll get to talk!” So for the nervous talkers - there’s always hope!
Thank you for bringing us along on your date day! Hey, remember: - what can go right, will go right. And stop borrowing trouble... I am keeping my fingers crossed for you!!!!!!! 😊😊
OMG dating.... I'm 48 and gratefully married; granted for the third time. I have a 15 year old son and I am doing my best to teach him morals and absolutely respecting women. Let him know chivalry is not dead; let them open your doors, offer to order for you, etc. Also, single dads tend to be very responsible, try not to ask too much about the child. Men love a certain subject for #1- themselves. haha good luck
I’m such a nervous talker, too..and I over think/analyze everything. I think it’s great you two are opposites! Maybe the fact that he is adventurous will bring you out of your comfort zone=) Keep us posted!
Girl, I have an amazing bearded hunk of a man who has some traits that are opposite to me and opposites attract. We've been together for over 5 years and getting married soon. I'm so happy you found that spark again! I hope it all goes well! If not, there's plenty of fish in the sea out there and you are definitely a catch!
Good luck Cassie. I’m one of the worst over thinkers & can really understand what you go through before & after any event. I’m so glad you are being kinder to yourself and he would be lucky to have you ❤️
I think its very off-putting when a person includes pictures of their children on their dating profile...it doesn't bother me when they mention them on their profile.
I met a single dad when I was 30. Dating a single dad takes a bit more patience and understanding (in my experience). It was worth it. Nearly 15 years later we are still together.
When my boyfriend and I first met in person I was a nervous drinker and talker but so was he so it worked in our favor because almost 3 years later and a baby due any week/day now!!! All the love and luck to you♥️
I think the opposite of who you are is what you need. It tends to work better that way. Someone from the outside that can see you for who you are clearly is the best observation. Don’t hold the differences too hard
I feel like all of us (your fans) are cheering in your corner. It's like one of those movies, where something beautiful happens and you can't help but smile big and tear up a little bit. At least I know that I am that happy for you. Beautiful things for a beautiful person.
So I watched your follow up first (oops) and he's a dad too?!? Ahh!!! So cool - being a step parent is blessing in so many ways! 🙌🏻 the babe might also be why he needs later night date times!
Here's the thing though if he's into your personality he'll totally love your nervous rambling ^-^ when my husband and I first got together, one of his friends was like - with her you NEVER NEED A RADIO hahhaa! We've been together 10 years now.
Excited for you! Ya know, you don't need to try to not be excited. BE excited! Feel the joy. Otherwise, you're suppressing the joy and exacerbating the heartbreak. Flip the script on that. Enjoy the joyful moments to the hilt and know that if it works out, awesome, more joy, if it doesn't, on to the next joy. You're giving up the good part for fear of the bad part. How is that good? The more joy you let yourself feel, the more joy you bring to the table to share and that could just change the outcome. So, no more suppressing your joy. Feel that shit. Enjoy it. Minimize the 'didn't work out' part later, if it happens. But for now...feel happy. We get so little of that in life. How much joy is wasted by being afraid to feel it? You are awesome, beautiful, smart, and adorable so only the 'right' guy will do. Sometimes it take a lot of wrong ones to get to him.
I briefly dated a guy who had 2 kids. He introduced them to me immediately and his little daughter totally latched on to me like I was her new mom. Very uncomfortable situation. I felt so bad for that little girl, she seemed desperate for female attention.
Cassie, girl you got bit bad! I met my husband almost 39 yrs ago and this brought back a lot of memories. I remember feeling energized, it was like I was struck by lightning. You just KNOW when you meet the right one, but you force yourself to over think, and then doubt... Who believes in love at first sight? Right? Well, it exists! Your post date chat brought back a lot of that OMFG excitement and anxious optimism and doubt that I remember feeling. Your face was glowing and your eyes were sparkling. I hope your prayers are answered. Keep your feet on the ground, but let yourself dream a little too! Keep us posted. .
Different does not have to equate to incompatible. My spouse and I are very different, so it surprised some people when we decided to get married rather quickly. But here we are, closing in on our 30th anniversary.
I just adore your content. And I'm so incredibly happy that you had a lovely time!! You're such a beautiful and kind hearted woman and deserve the best the world has to offer!
Cassie-my husband and I are complete opposites. He’s laid back and chill and I’m high-strung. He’s very outdoorsy and I do not dig the outdoors at all. It’s nice having separate interests as he can do his thing and I can do mine. Keep an open mind and have faith.
So excited for the updates!!! It really feels like you are glowing when you feel feel connection like that and I can see it just watching this! One thing I've learned, (as I know how vulnerable it feels to wait and see of someone is in to you) is you aren't just on the auction block trying to impress someone hoping they like you. Flip the script, these dates are about YOU deciding if they are worthy enough and check all the boxes.. it goes both ways! Xoxo
My bearded hunk/soulmate didn't come into my life until I was 38 years old, and I had been married and divorced twice. I had actually given up on a forever love. I met him on his birthday, my first day bartending at that bar. When I came to work, he had already been celebrating his birthday, lol! But when he saw me, he told his best friend that he would be marrying me one day. He asked me out a few days later and I said yes. He seemed to want to get serious pretty quick which scared me and made me avoid him for a few weeks, but I came around and we moved in together at first. We then got married on his birthday the following year. Our early years were tough but he has since quit drinking, quit cigarettes because I developed COPD, and he is very good to me all the time! He tells me all the time how much he loves me and appreciates me. We are more in love every day, I can't imagine being without him. We will be celebrating 23 years of marriage this coming May 7th, 24 years since we met. My first two marriages only lasted four years and two years, so needless to say, this one has by far exceeded both of them by far, lol! I wish the same happiness to all the girls/women who are out there feeling like it won't happen, it happens when you least expect it. I can't believe that I almost backed out on my wedding day, I would've missed out on the best thing that has ever happened to me in my life, other than my kids.
How does it work? If they are interested then they get ahold of you again, but if they’re not to they usually drop you a line letting you know it wasn’t a match or do they just ghost you?
Been with a sexy bearded wonder for about 10yrs now. In many ways we are so very different, and in just as many the same person almost. He makes me stronger, tougher, more driven, all while being 100% me. He supports my dreams and is my biggest fan. He makes me belly laugh - the wheezing, I can’t breathe, crying - kind of belly laugh, every single day. I am absolutely crazy about him. It took me a week to work up the nerve to message him 10yrs ago. I saw his picture and literally said out loud - “he’s out of my league”. Until one day I said “girl… the worst that can happen is it doesn’t go anywhere, so why not?!”. I am thankful every day that I was brave that day. I can’t imagine my life without this amazing person in it. Who is 100% in my league btw. 😉 My best advice is this: Don’t worry about differences, go with the person who sets your soul on fire; the one who makes you want more of them, and more of you all at the same time. The person who knows your worth. Because sis - you’re worth it.
I don't know, I don't actually get alert until 8:30 at night - and I'm 65. My grandmother was the same. What the hell. If you haven't had this experience before, go for it. You are safe, you can be charming without worrying about pantyhose, etc. Have fun. (I am adding to this having seen the end of the video - just sink into the loveliness of what you experienced and go to bed. Don't think anymore about it. You are a funny, smart, interesting, independent, beautiful, creative woman. He's also lucky to have spent time with you. Revel in that giggly, short of breath, tingly sort of feeling - that was created out of the conversation. What happens tomorrow doesn't matter right now. Put on some slinky pajamas and have a great sleep.)
Sometimes people with different interests do make it work! I am the most boring person ever and my husband is adventurous. We have been married 20 years and balance each other out perfectly. Keeping my fingers crossed for you, you deserve all the happiness! ♥️
I personally wouldn't do virtual dates... not my thing. I can't comment with people that way. People are supposed to like different things.. you just do it...
i love these videos girl! as i’m going through similar things i relate so much.. been talking to a guy from bumble for about 10 days now and still in that ‘eeek i hope it goes well’ phase
I wish you the best of luck ! Dating is so thrilling and a bummer too at times . So just enjoy the moment and try not to overthink . Just one day at a time …
MA'AM...I need to know if y'all talked today! It's the 24th, and I am dying for an update!! So happy for you, that smile was a genuine, pure, happy smile 😍
I happy you're so excited. Always dive into that fun/giddy feeling you were having. Don't try and stop yourself from feeling that. And certainly don't say it'd be a miracle of miracles if he wants to talk to you again. He'd be lucky to have you want to talk to him again. You are amazing, beautiful, wild (in a good way) soul, and gem of a person and don't you forget it!!! Obvs keep us updated. :)
I give you so much credit for being able to FaceTime for a date, I’m even awkward and uncomfortable FaceTiming people I know personally! Haha. More power to you 🙌🏻♥️
I dated a guy with a kid, and I told him all of the time DO NOT introduce me to your kid until we are VERY serious. Flash forward, met his entire family, kid, ex wife. Spent most weekends with his kid and/or family and then he GHOSTED ME. After a YEAR and knowing him since 7th grade. Even if you like him a lot, do not lose your boundaries. Just keep reminding yourself. Sorry to be a debbie downer, but do not go down my road. LOL.
@@iwiwd624 It is, especially since I thought he was the one. Before he vanished, he told me I was the perfect girlfriend which made it even more confusing.
Yay! It sounds like there were sparks and it went well 🥳 I still get butterflies and excited for date nights after 15 yrs. I know your Mr. Right is out there Cassie! I just know it! 🤗 And of course dating someone with kids or not is completely your decision, and from my experience, I didn't want kids until I had them myself so I wouldn't write someone off just bc they have kids. But if you do, nothing wrong with that! Just sharing my experience from not wanting any kids to wanting multiple after. Perhaps it could bring you your person and enough room for a child to love as well 🥰 If not I know you'll find your person 😁
Oh I totally feel you with the kid thing! If they hide it, they’ve already made the first lie, and that sets the tone for the rest of the relationship.
Guys who have kids are a whole different kettle of fish. This could be the one Cass 😀 But if not then move on to the next. As my grandmother used to say “ what’s for you, will never go by you” ❤️
Awwwww it is so nice, and cute to see you so excited and smitten, :) Just don’t overthink things and enjoy. And for crying out loud, allow yourself to be excited 😂
Oooh, I love men with beards, it really improves most of them. 😀 And yes, being a parent does indeed change people. When you get seriously involved with a parent, you have to love or at the very least tolerate their kid(s) -- it's a package deal & the child is usually their first priority. Best of luck!
Well at least you can say that you felt a spark! That’s always the feeling you’re chasing. Excited for you if it works out, and if not, onto the next one 😊
After a terrible marriage and divorce, I landed myself a beautiful, bearded hunk of a man who speaks with an incredibly sexy Italian accent and treats my heart like it’s the most precious thing he has ever owned. I hope the beard is your lucky charm too, Cassie. 😉
I am also divorced (with kid) and found a bearded hunk of a man! He's my IT nerd hunk of a man. Love him!!! Might've taken me 40 years to find him, but it was well worth it.

Btw, you looked lovely!

No you're right, it's highly advisable to omit the fact that you're a parent on dating apps. Pedos seek out that kind of thing.
I gave a guy who had two kids a chance even though I never wanted to date someone with kids. We're now happily married, I love my step children, and I have never been in such a happy and healthy relationship. All the best, I hope this is your person xx

Excited to see you excited post-date Cassie! I hope all continues to go well and we get a 2nd date video soon! 😉
I’m so happy for you that the date went well! Fingers crossed that there’s a second date and get to know each other more. Opposites can attract and balance each other. It’s so nice to see how excited you were after the date. :)
I saw more of your home in this video than usual. I think I REALLY dig your taste in design style (cool mint filing cabinet w/rounded corners & stool w/ angled wooden legs… the print on those fresh bedsheets & the white slat headboard. 😍) Can you do an apartment tour sometime, showcasing your “interior design” & decor, etc? 🙂 also: so happy for you that you had fun on your date!! 🥰
Haha I just left a comment asking about the filing cabinet I love it!
Great idea!
Be aware of the man looking for good ‘mom material.’ Which I’m sure you would be, but it’s about the connection between you two. Good luck Cassie. 😃😃😃😃
The best overthinker and overanalyzer on youtube 👏 I could listen to you talking for hours on end!
Thank you for the dating video…I can really relate to the “over talking” nervous habit. What will be, will be. I’m happy you took the chance on someone outside your typical guy. Who knows, right?

I'm so happy you found that spark again! I hope it all goes well! If not, there's plenty of fish in the sea out there and you are definitely a catch!
Good luck Cassie. I’m one of the worst over thinkers & can really understand what you go through before & after any event.
I’m so glad you are being kinder to yourself and he would be lucky to have you ❤️
I think its very off-putting when a person includes pictures of their children on their dating profile...it doesn't bother me when they mention them on their profile.
Agreed. It feels like they're bating their children. Plus it's weird to post your kids on public platforms for strangers to look at
All of this. Yes mention it on your profile, send pics after you've gotten to know each other a bit, but don't put their faces on your dating profile.
I met a single dad when I was 30. Dating a single dad takes a bit more patience and understanding (in my experience). It was worth it. Nearly 15 years later we are still together.

Oh, Cassie, I’m so happy when I see you so happy. I really hope this one curls your toes😊 You ARE gorgeous!💕
I work 10am-10pm.. so I do date nights really late. Have to remember people work different hours and have different lives.
Stop overthinking it will drive u nuts!!! Just go with the flow

I hope your prayers are answered. Keep your feet on the ground, but let yourself dream a little too! Keep us posted.

I really live for your dating videos!! Glad to hear you’ve had such a great time :)
You sound like me when I had my first date with my husband…. 20 years later….still married to the best man ever. 💜💜💜
Quarantined and soooo happy you uploaded! Girl, I was bored! Thank you!!!
Me tooooo!!!!
So excited for you. Hoping this bearded parent brings a new opportunity for you. A mature side of the dating game.
I LOVE THESE VIDS. As a 25 1/2 year old Ik how stressful the dating world is… and these vids makes me feel like I’m not so alone in the stress 🥰
Different does not have to equate to incompatible. My spouse and I are very different, so it surprised some people when we decided to get married rather quickly. But here we are, closing in on our 30th anniversary.
Thank you for being here for me. Currently going through a rough time and paying for my mistakes. You always make me feel better.
You’re a lovely gal and I hope he’s having this same conversation with himself about you.
I just adore your content. And I'm so incredibly happy that you had a lovely time!! You're such a beautiful and kind hearted woman and deserve the best the world has to offer!
I'm so happy the date went well! 😍 (And you ARE so gorgeous!!💋) 💙💙💙💙
Cassie-my husband and I are complete opposites. He’s laid back and chill and I’m high-strung. He’s very outdoorsy and I do not dig the outdoors at all. It’s nice having separate interests as he can do his thing and I can do mine. Keep an open mind and have faith.
So excited for the updates!!! It really feels like you are glowing when you feel feel connection like that and I can see it just watching this! One thing I've learned, (as I know how vulnerable it feels to wait and see of someone is in to you) is you aren't just on the auction block trying to impress someone hoping they like you. Flip the script, these dates are about YOU deciding if they are worthy enough and check all the boxes.. it goes both ways! Xoxo
Best part about you is that you never stop trying.. That's everything ❤
U seriously had me on the verge of tears..I felt your excitement n joy. My fingers r crossed..u r a sweetie 🥰
Please give us an update on how things continue to go :). It’s so nice to see you so happy!
My bearded hunk/soulmate didn't come into my life until I was 38 years old, and I had been married and divorced twice. I had actually given up on a forever love. I met him on his birthday, my first day bartending at that bar. When I came to work, he had already been celebrating his birthday, lol! But when he saw me, he told his best friend that he would be marrying me one day. He asked me out a few days later and I said yes. He seemed to want to get serious pretty quick which scared me and made me avoid him for a few weeks, but I came around and we moved in together at first. We then got married on his birthday the following year. Our early years were tough but he has since quit drinking, quit cigarettes because I developed COPD, and he is very good to me all the time! He tells me all the time how much he loves me and appreciates me. We are more in love every day, I can't imagine being without him. We will be celebrating 23 years of marriage this coming May 7th, 24 years since we met. My first two marriages only lasted four years and two years, so needless to say, this one has by far exceeded both of them by far, lol! I wish the same happiness to all the girls/women who are out there feeling like it won't happen, it happens when you least expect it. I can't believe that I almost backed out on my wedding day, I would've missed out on the best thing that has ever happened to me in my life, other than my kids.
How does it work? If they are interested then they get ahold of you again, but if they’re not to they usually drop you a line letting you know it wasn’t a match or do they just ghost you?
BEARDED?! OOOOF. I hope it continues. Men in beards are hoottttt.
Been with a sexy bearded wonder for about 10yrs now. In many ways we are so very different, and in just as many the same person almost. He makes me stronger, tougher, more driven, all while being 100% me. He supports my dreams and is my biggest fan. He makes me belly laugh - the wheezing, I can’t breathe, crying - kind of belly laugh, every single day. I am absolutely crazy about him.
It took me a week to work up the nerve to message him 10yrs ago. I saw his picture and literally said out loud - “he’s out of my league”. Until one day I said “girl… the worst that can happen is it doesn’t go anywhere, so why not?!”. I am thankful every day that I was brave that day. I can’t imagine my life without this amazing person in it. Who is 100% in my league btw. 😉
My best advice is this: Don’t worry about differences, go with the person who sets your soul on fire; the one who makes you want more of them, and more of you all at the same time. The person who knows your worth. Because sis - you’re worth it.
Of course you are gorgeous. I was smiling throughout the whole video😊 I wish you the best!
I don't know, I don't actually get alert until 8:30 at night - and I'm 65. My grandmother was the same. What the hell. If you haven't had this experience before, go for it. You are safe, you can be charming without worrying about pantyhose, etc. Have fun. (I am adding to this having seen the end of the video - just sink into the loveliness of what you experienced and go to bed. Don't think anymore about it. You are a funny, smart, interesting, independent, beautiful, creative woman. He's also lucky to have spent time with you. Revel in that giggly, short of breath, tingly sort of feeling - that was created out of the conversation. What happens tomorrow doesn't matter right now. Put on some slinky pajamas and have a great sleep.)
Cassie, you are gorgeous ❤️ and that’s a fact! Continue to speak life over yourself
I dated one guy that I am still crazy for, he just lives 2 hours away. He only has one day off from work a week, so it’s too hard.
I’ve always thought you had gorgeous eyes! You deserve someone who is worthy of YOU! Never forget that!
Right? She’s so precious!
Sometimes people with different interests do make it work! I am the most boring person ever and my husband is adventurous. We have been married 20 years and balance each other out perfectly. Keeping my fingers crossed for you, you deserve all the happiness! ♥️
I think your fully in the right on the kids thing. I also think it’s great that your putting so much consideration into his child.
It would not be a miracle for someone to love you! You be you and things will fall into place when it’s time!
Omg I’m so excited for you! I was telling my husband ‘Cassie just went on a Bubble date!’ ….. he’s like, who?! Lol
I love that you are so giddy and excited. It’s great to see you so happy.😀
I personally wouldn't do virtual dates... not my thing. I can't comment with people that way. People are supposed to like different things.. you just do it...
i love these videos girl! as i’m going through similar things i relate so much.. been talking to a guy from bumble for about 10 days now and still in that ‘eeek i hope it goes well’ phase
I wish you the best of luck ! Dating is so thrilling and a bummer too at times . So just enjoy the moment and try not to overthink . Just one day at a time …
MA'AM...I need to know if y'all talked today! It's the 24th, and I am dying for an update!! So happy for you, that smile was a genuine, pure, happy smile 😍
I love seeing you giddy like this! Continue being the beautiful human that you are and I wish you the best. 🤗
Your datingvideos are so OG and authentic ! Keep going girl ! Ps. You should really make a video about Your romantic timeline in life 🧚🏽♀️
I happy you're so excited. Always dive into that fun/giddy feeling you were having. Don't try and stop yourself from feeling that. And certainly don't say it'd be a miracle of miracles if he wants to talk to you again. He'd be lucky to have you want to talk to him again. You are amazing, beautiful, wild (in a good way) soul, and gem of a person and don't you forget it!!! Obvs keep us updated. :)
Oh my god. Giddy Cassie is one of my favorite Cassies. As always my fingers and toes are crossed for you to find your person!
Yeah i can feel the chaotic vibes 😂😂😂.. so awesome that you went with it even though it was late... So excited for you . 😁
I’m sooo excited for you. Please keep us posted!
I give you so much credit for being able to FaceTime for a date, I’m even awkward and uncomfortable FaceTiming people I know personally! Haha. More power to you 🙌🏻♥️
Do you tell guys what you do for a living? I’d be worried they’d look up ALL the videos I ever made!!!
I dated a guy with a kid, and I told him all of the time DO NOT introduce me to your kid until we are VERY serious. Flash forward, met his entire family, kid, ex wife. Spent most weekends with his kid and/or family and then he GHOSTED ME. After a YEAR and knowing him since 7th grade.
Even if you like him a lot, do not lose your boundaries. Just keep reminding yourself. Sorry to be a debbie downer, but do not go down my road. LOL.
omg ! did you ever get an explanation?
@@iwiwd624 NO. Unbelievable. Just disappeared. It has been almost 8 months and I doubt I will hear from him again.
@@stefaniamalatesta8076 oh my god i’m so sorry. that must be totally heartbreaking. i’ll never understand people.
@@iwiwd624 It is, especially since I thought he was the one. Before he vanished, he told me I was the perfect girlfriend which made it even more confusing.
@@stefaniamalatesta8076 i’m so sorry you’re going through that or did. i bet it had nothing to do with you but an explanation would be nice 🙄
I have been ANTICIPATING another one of these videos
Yay! It sounds like there were sparks and it went well 🥳 I still get butterflies and excited for date nights after 15 yrs. I know your Mr. Right is out there Cassie! I just know it! 🤗 And of course dating someone with kids or not is completely your decision, and from my experience, I didn't want kids until I had them myself so I wouldn't write someone off just bc they have kids. But if you do, nothing wrong with that! Just sharing my experience from not wanting any kids to wanting multiple after. Perhaps it could bring you your person and enough room for a child to love as well 🥰 If not I know you'll find your person 😁
Oh I totally feel you with the kid thing! If they hide it, they’ve already made the first lie, and that sets the tone for the rest of the relationship.
Guys who have kids are a whole different kettle of fish. This could be the one Cass 😀
But if not then move on to the next. As my grandmother used to say “ what’s for you, will never go by you” ❤️
I am same way I talk Way to much. I hate awkward pauses in conversation so I feel I always have to say something.
You are definitely in my top 3 favorite youtubers 😁😁😁 youre the best and pls keep up with the content
DON'T LET DUMB PEOPLE WASTE YOUR TIME CASSIE!!!! u go girl
Good luck Cassie!! He sounds right for you. 💕❤️
You deserve a gentlemen and I’ve been praying for ya girl... so happy to hear you had fun
Awwwww it is so nice, and cute to see you so excited and smitten, :) Just don’t overthink things and enjoy. And for crying out loud, allow yourself to be excited 😂
You know how this is going to work out.. you will be so happy about those guys that didn't work out when you finally come across the one for you
Oooh, I love men with beards, it really improves most of them. 😀 And yes, being a parent does indeed change people. When you get seriously involved with a parent, you have to love or at the very least tolerate their kid(s) -- it's a package deal & the child is usually their first priority. Best of luck!
Dark blue is definitely your color. Looks so good on you
