Cue the music....
To "Another One Bites the Dust"
I was starting to get a little anxious feeling that my date from Friday night was moving too quickly and more into things than I was. I was trying to just ignore it and go with it but I had a bad gut feeling. My main thing is I'm so busy right now with work and studying and DS, so any guy that I hang out with will have to really be respectful and understanding of that.
So I met him for a quick sushi dinner Sunday night and everything was fine but he was talking about wanting to see me Monday (I had the day off). I told him I had DS all day and I was also busy so it probably wasn't going to work. His solution was to suggest that he, DS, and I do something together. I was like " I'm not having DS around someone I barely know, that's a mistake I made before I won't make it again".
Then, last night he wanted to come over (after DS was asleep) and I told him I had to study. His response "I'm just going to start driving there until you really say "no!". Ummm, thought I just did. I had to flat out say "no, that is NOT going to work" before he finally turned around.
I'm completely icked out and won't be seeing him again.
Re: Cue the music....
Sounds like you're pretty irresistible, A
Sorry though, that sucks.
Did he really start driving to your house? Unbelievable. That sucks that it didn't work out, he sounded promising. Onward and upward!
Sorry! I was hoping this guy had potential!
Yes! He texted back, well I am glad you caught me before I got onto the freeway.
OMG, what is wrong with these guys! I had high hopes for him. Keeping my fingers crossed you meet a winner soon!
No kidding.
Achase, you dodged another bullet. Starting to think you are bulletproof..hahaha.
This guy brought you flowers into your office on Vday after only going on one date with you!! It may have been thoughtful, sweet, whatever...but that is too soon for that move in my opinion. I kept my mouth shut when you told us that, but I had a serious side-eye expression after hearing that.
I hope you're right jm (about me being bulletproof)!
And I agree about the v-day flowers. That was too much. What was also too much was that he posted a pic of the flowers on MY car on HIS FB page. I got the icky feeling at that time but shrugged it off because I thought "well, he's just kind of excited I guess???"
Good thing is that with all of these guys I'm dating who turn out to be not right, I'm getting quicker at diagnosing that "off" feeling I'm getting. I'm usually ferreting it out within a week! That's progress!

I haven't dated anyone yet but I think about what you've said on here about trusting your gut. And I'm going to make sure I try to follow it when something feels off. (I have been lurking forever but just started posting recently so I know your story.)

Holy Christo!! That is beyond ridiculous.
This just made me think of a rapist. "You're saying no but you mean yes" kind of thing CREEPY!!!!
Me too! Nothing like consent until proven otherwise!
"And another one gone, and another one gone..."
What is wrong with these guys?
What the WHAT???DUDE...way to doge a bullett there!
And sorry...I'm with everyone else that had hoped it would work out!
