mortensorchid Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 So tonight was rather ... Well, let me explain. This may end up being rather long but it's a tale. After months of no action, when it rains it pours - I suddenly had 3 guys wanting my attention. The first I met on the Tinder app, the second is a friend of a friend who asked me out of the blue to go to a movie with him several weeks ago, and the third was through Facebook. The Tinder man was nice enough, but I find out through a text chat that he is divorced and has 4 kids. The third is also divorced with 4 kids. Yikes, that's a lot of baggage. The second and I had a few fits and starts in terms of a second get together (crowded Halloween bash) but he called again and we got together again. The third one flaked out on me for a second get together, haven't heard from him since about another so he's gone. After a lot of thinking, I saw the Tinder man again and decided that while he was nice I wanted the second man. I told him so over the phone last week, saying that the second man came into the picture literally the day before he did and I have made my choice. He wished me well and that was that. So the second man ... Tonight he brought me out to meet his friends at a Chinese restaurant. He's an actor and they were having a premiere night for some short films that they had all done. After we ate and chatted with people, we came back to my place and we talked for a while. He asked me something, it went like so: Him: "Do you see other guys?" Me: "No, I don't." Him: "None?" Me: "No." Him: "Well I was with someone last month." Me: "Oh?" Him: "This Asian girl, she was in for the weekend and she lives in Toronto. She went back to Toronto." Me: "Oh ... Well I was with someone over the summer but that's over now. We haven't talked in weeks and I doubt we will again... And if someone were to come into the picture tomorrow, I would say no because of you." Him: "Well, that's good... What are you doing for Thanksgiving?" Me: "I'm going to Mom and Dad's, and my sister is coming in for the day." Him: "Well, I was going to ask you to come and meet my family." Me: "Do you want me to meet your family? I'm ok with that if you'd like. I'm not sure what the schedule is in terms of when we are eating and things like that." Him: "Let me know." This is a big step, isn't it? I think we're really going steady then if he wants me to meet his family. What do others think of this?
madjac74 Posted November 18, 2013 Posted November 18, 2013 It sounds like an episode of the dating game where you had to blindly chose between those three guys. Why not just go on talking to them or maybe looking for other guys or even being single until you are absolutely sure of what you want? btw dating the Tinder Man sounds really creepy
Author mortensorchid Posted November 18, 2013 Author Posted November 18, 2013 I think the Tinder one was ok, but he was/is in a bad place with his 4 kids. I mean really, he should have told me at the first meeting that he was divorced and had 4 kids. It was disconcerting to find that out in a text chat.
FitChick Posted November 19, 2013 Posted November 19, 2013 You're dating an actor? I hope you have a good job because if things get serious you will be supporting him.
