So this guy sent me flowers today. With a note saying:

 

I'm sorry. Do over?

 

Whatever. Pfft. I mean, it's nice that he's taking responsibility for his part in this, but I'm over the drama.

Why would a guy show up for a first meeting( not really even a date) totally tricked out....INSECURITY!!! You looked great I bet, if I met a woman the first time and she looked like she was ready to go out for dinner and dancing...I would runnnnnnnnnn

 

 

This - in my view very twisted - opinion prevails only in america :). What constitutes casual* in the civilised world here is usually interpreted as dressed up, which is hilarious. I'm not saying this guy was foreign, just pointing that the crazy judgements and the passive-agressive comments people need to put up with just because they don't look like slobs is what's sick.

 

*and what constitutes casual here is typically something that no human being should ever be forced to look at :laugh:.

You wanted a reaction out of him, and you got flowers in return. Now you'll turning him down? What are you trying to play at?

Not playing at anything.

 

I just realize how bad we are together, and I don't want to engage with him further. We both played a lot of games with each other, and if we bring out this kind of bad in each other after one date, then I don't think it bodes well for a future. Toxic!

After all this, I'm wondering what the point of this thread was.

Jeez, I'm so glad I'm on a dating break. I couldn't handle all this crap. :D

Alpha Female, I think you are right in cutting of communication. It seems to be a huge headache from the start. I agree with some of the other posters in that you should look at this as a lesson learned type of deal. And yes, he did seem like a douchebag, so no loss on your part. As far as not being able to shake it off I think that has a lot to do with the fact that he cut ties and we as humans don't like that. It's a form of rejection and we would rather be the rejectors instead of the rejectees. Sorry making up my own words right now. :p Myself personally, I have to find acceptance, even from people who are jerks. Even if it means I find it and then do the rejecting because I didn't want the relationship to begin with. LOL. Wash your hands of it and move on, this will turn out to be way to much drama.
