March My best friend Brandi and I were visiting my mom in St. Simons, hoping for a fun and relaxing break. Unfortunately, the friends I had there were all busy, leaving us with few options for entertainment.
Seeing our predicament, my mom suggested we try Bumble to find new friends. Brandi and I agreed and found ourselves at Mellow Mushroom, scrolling through profiles. Amid the sea of faces, one profile stood out: Rowdy. Hes my friends hairdresser. You should match with him! After a brief chat, Rowdy suggested we meet at Rafters for a band playing on Fat Tuesday.
Brandi and I arrived at Rafters first, scanning the crowd for Rowdy. As I turned around, I saw him crouched behind a stranger, trying to scare me. I caught him before he could and giggled, wondering if this man was really trying to jump scare me for a first interaction.
He was. Rowdy was wearing skinny jeans and a black leather jacket, looking effortlessly cool. The three of us hit it off, chatting and laughing the night away. As the evening came to an end, Brandi and I decided it was time to head home. But just as we were about to leave, Rowdy shouted after me.
I turned back…and snagged a quick kiss. Lunch was casual and fun. As we walked along the beach Rowdy kept asking me questions and poor Brandi was left to third wheel in this conversation.
