If you're bored this weekend I updated my blog with my latest bad date.
The summary: He was unemployed, lived with his mom, was a racist and had a pin head.
Re: My latest date
I had this look -
- on my face the entire time I was reading your post. What a winner!
I had someone from Match request me on FB. For some unknown reason I accepted. He has some of the weirdest most inappropriate status updates calling people out and saying how awesome he is and that the restraining order his X got against him is BS... yeah... not meeting up with that guy!
I think that I probably meet them too quickly and also give too many guys "a chance". I tell myself "you never know" way too often. I can count on one hand the number of guys I've been excited to meet in the last year. Most of the guys I meet I am just "meh" about. I think I'm going to stop that!
Yeah one thing I learned over years of online dating was to trust my instincts. Never once did I go on a date that I was meh about and get pleasantly surprised. Of course there were plenty of guys I was excited about that were letdowns too but I finally stopped going out with guys I knew I had little connection with/interest in from the start. Funny, I was just thinking of one of your past posts because I met a guy last week who was a friend of my friend's boyfriend. We hit it off and laughed/flirted all night, exchanged numbers and have been texting. He mentioned once that he'd like to get together but hasn't tried to plan a date. A little while ago we were going back and forth and I asked if he had a busy week and he replied that he did. I'm like oh herrrreeee we go with a Mr. Too Busy. MEH indeed.
oh yes, Mr. "I'm way too busy and important for you"
If he's really interested he'll make time!
Your trifecta comment cracked me up. So not what any woman is looking for!
Next!!!
Every time I try to take a break, I think... or just this one last guy. Now I have 3 dates scheduled for this week! UGH But the one tomorrow I am super excited for and hope I don't screw it up
