USMCHokie Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 What? It's not a date? It's just a meeting?? Hahah, ZING! :laugh:
bac Posted September 2, 2010 Posted September 2, 2010 Well, the guy who was a funny writer turned out to be odd. At first, I thought he was drunk, on drugs, or had a brain injury, because he's got a hippie-ish spacey thing going. He wasn't a fluent talker, but had a great sense of humor and laughed at everything I said. Okay, I thought, I can like this guy even though he's a bit flaky. And then he brought up his ex-girlfriend. I probed and discovered they had been broken up 2 months ago & he's not over her. I asked why he was on a dating site & he said he wanted her to get the message that it's over. She wants him back, he said. Umm, thanks for sharing. The whole thing sounded fishy & I ended the date there and left. He didn't seem a bit sad to see me go. I wish there was a way to screen for douchebaggery without giving a guy the third degree over email. Ah, just another day in the life of dating. Here you got to the point. That is why I do prefer emailing before meeting a guy. Basically, it is to avoid wasting my time on meeting guys who are wrong for me and probably for most of women. Your date is a good example of such a guy. When I email to guys before the meeting, I ask them personal questions about them to rule out wrong guys. Sure, they might lie in emails but they might say the truth as well. I do not check out how funny they are while emailing because it is easier to check out during the meeting. I guess I do not even care how hilarious he is if he cares for his ex-GF so much.
Author Cee Posted September 2, 2010 Author Posted September 2, 2010 O.K. folks, the plot thickens about my date last night... I posted a new thread because it's completely off topic to this thread: http://www.loveshack.org/forums/t244230/
