A man that will treat you like a lady, a nice lady, and he enjoys your company, and he took you to a popular restaurant means he likes being seen with a good look woman on his arm, sweetie, I'd hang on tight, and just see where this adventure is going to take you.
Keep us posted, a lot of girls dream of finding themselves in that place.
