John and you are on your eighth date, yes, your eighth. You are taking things slowly and want to get to know each other properly. Today he had something special in mind. Something that might seem strange to others. John has bought lavender oil especially for the date.
He gently drips it and spreads it on his wrist and neck, his intention behind it. Lavender oil has a calming effect. And he wants you to be relaxed around him. Especially since he wants to tell you today where he works and what he does. He is worried that you will become afraid of him because of it. That's why he uses lavender oil, it may sound stupid. But his intention behind this thought is more than just sweet.
He doesn't want to lose you, or for you to be afraid of him. As you sit together on the couch at his house watching a film, the smell hits your nose and you look at him. "Is..is that lavender I can smell, John?" you ask him, his face turns slightly red and he looks at you
