I finally realized that I needed to end my last relationship. Taking time to heal after the breakup has allowed me to reflect on my experiences, and I now see that it was a toxic situation for me. As difficult as it was, I'm grateful that my ex-partner took the initiative to end things because I was too afraid to do so myself.

Looking back on that period, I now realize that the relationship was not worth the time and energy that I invested in it. Although it wasn't easy to move on, I know that I made the right decision in the end. I'm glad that I took the time to heal, and I'm excited to see what the future holds now that I'm no longer burdened by a waste of space. 

Today is the day I finally meet Luke in person for the first time, and I'm feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness. We connected through an online dating app a few months ago and have been getting to know each other through virtual conversations ever since. We decided to meet in person, despite the fact that I'm traveling alone to another country. It's a big leap of faith for me, but I had nothing to lose on a short vacation myself and I am ready to take a chance and see where it goes.

I took all necessary precautions to ensure my safety and that of those around me, including getting tested for COVID-19. Thankfully, my results came back negative, and so did Luke's. We both understand the importance of being responsible and taking necessary measures to protect ourselves and those we care about.

I arrived in Paris, the city of love, and checked into my hotel. I texted him to let him know I was there. To my surprise, he responded that he was already at our designated meeting place.

After taking a quick shower, I see my curls are still intact and proceed to carefully choose my outfit for the occasion. I decided to wear my favorite black skin-tight dress with long sleeves, which covered part of my thighs. The dress showcased my cleavage, and I made sure to push up my bosom to make the most of the occasion. I completed the outfit with high heels and light makeup that accentuated my features.

I put on my face mask, ready to head out and meet him. The anticipation of finally meeting him in person made my heart race, and I couldn't wait to see him. Despite my nerves, I felt confident in my appearance and the impression I would make.

As I stepped out of my hotel room, I took a deep breath and felt ready for whatever the night had in store for us.

I sent him a text: On my way!

Luke: I'll find you when you get here.

I arrived at the restaurant and bar where he had invited me, after taking an Uber to get there. The establishment looked luxurious and expensive, with a sophisticated ambiance that immediately caught my attention. The music playing in the background was just the kind I loved, and it had me tapping my feet and swaying to the rhythm.

As I stepped inside, the hostess of the restaurant greeted me with a warm smile and welcomed me to the establishment. The attention to detail in the decor and lighting was impressive, and it made me feel as though I had stepped into a different world.

"I'm here for a reservation under Luke Richardson."

"You're Luke's date?" She looked at me with annoyance first but then grinned, "He's actually he's just over there at the bar. The man with the black jacket."

I nodded, feeling a mix of excitement and nerves as I made my way over to where he was. With each step closer to him, my heart raced faster, and I could feel my palms getting sweaty with anticipation.

When I finally arrived, I noticed that his back looked slightly different than I had imagined, but I brushed off the feeling and focused on the moment. He was sitting alone with his mask still on, and I quickly sat down beside him, ordering a local beer and taking off my mask to take a sip.
