Here I got you a bottle of Pappy VanWinkles family reserve bourbon.

That was pretty funny mr. snrub. Something my brother would seriously ask for as a gift.

She said she had a daughter. She's either an unwed mother or an adulterer. I assumed the best case scenario.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Actually we make dinner together every Sunday and go out for dinner every Wednesday night. I've made dinner and bought him dinner. He's done so many wonderful things for us that dinner just didn't seem to cut it though. He's taking me on a cruise for crying out loud...hahahha. I'm not afraid of scaring him away....he's already said the big "L" (although I'm the one not there yet). We've known each other for 20 years and have always had a mutal attraction and liking for one another but never hooked up for whatever reason until just recently. I do however recognize that he is a rare find and I want him to know that I really do value and appreciate him without going overboard or sending the wrong message. Trust me if he were a guy I didn't already know, I would have been leary of him doing all these nice things this soon and probably wouldn't have had my daughter around him this soon in the first place.
I liked the bottle of scotch or wine idea. I was also thinking of treating him to a round of golf for him and a friend. Anyone know a good course that sells gift certificates? Or maybe, a golf club....what kind should I get?
By the way, I am a single mother...not an adulteress. hahahahahha.

Just say all that stuff to him. If you can tell it to a bunch of nitwits on the internet, you should be able to say it to him. He's already said the "L" word so he'll want to hear this stuff back from you. Write him an old-fashioned love letter. Let him buy his own Scotch.

Good grief! Did you ever consider that she might be divorced or widowed? I guess not...

Ummm...if you're divorced or widowed, you are unwed.

I have a daughter, and I am divorced from her father.

Unwed means she was never married. Techinically. I'm not unwed. I'm divorced, but I certainly am an adulterer.

I am kidding. Joking. Well, good for kelgal. Enjoy your cruise. That's so cool you knew him all these years too. All the best.
