Teacher's Pet?

His first e-mail came out of nowhere.  Well, actually from Match.com.  I was still in NY when I received the first one.  He wanted to correspond and eventually meet.  I checked out his profile and he seemed like a nice man; interesting and a gentlemen.  He teaches American History in high school.  (My daughter would be delighted since that is what she teaches.)

This past weekend I received several e-mails, several texts and dozens of IM's.  Is this 'overkill' or is he just being a nice sweet, old-fashioned guy?  I remember when I first started dating my late husband.back in the mid-60's.  Of course, this was before cell phones, computers, texting, instant messages and e-mails.  I received so many beautiful letters and cards with poems that he wrote himself and I loved every one of them.  He was a true romantic and always a gentlemen.......

Could this guy be a gentlemen too in our computer-savvy world?

We have tentatively arranged to meet on Thursday, depending on each other's schedules.  Since I really liked his attention and voice, could there be 'instant chemistry' or is this another dud?  Time will tell!
