Who is Mark?

Mark is the guy I met online last October. I wasn't really sure about him. He seemed too "normal" for me and I just wasn't that interested (or interested at all).
But lately, I have been feeling more interested. I interviewed him for the Writing Center newsletter (he's a sportswriter) and, in writing this article, got talking about him with all of my co-workers. Well, they--like my family--have been strongly encouraging me to go for him. I think peer pressure is winning out. Just kidding--I don't think you can fall for someone because of peer pressure.
Anyways, I took Mark out last Saturday for his birthday. We went to Clyde's and then went out to a field and just played baseball for a couple of hours. It was so much fun, and it just felt really romantic. I don't know, something in me has changed recently.
So, yeah, I think I'm falling. For once, it's not for a loser. My family loves this guy and my friends who have met him like him, too! What a wonderful shock! And he's Jewish! What more could I ask for??
