Hi guys! :D

 

I'm writing mostly to vent...and because this is a super entertaining story so I figured I'd give back to this wonderful community with a juicey read ;)

 

I made my last thread about a guy I wasnt sure I wanted to date. Got lots of no's but after hearing from some open minded posters and realizing I was analyzing everything to death...I decided to give him a shot...dun dun dun...

 

So everything was amazing for the first 2 weeks. We were exclusive (didnt have sex) Saw each other frequently. He seemed so kind and was really good to me. He seemed a little cooky but normal is a cycle on the washing machine so I wanted to give him a chance.... Blah blah

 

Last night he decided he wanted to cook for me. I go over and I notice he seems a little loopy. We were standing in his kitchen and he said, "What direction do you want to go in?" Given the context of our conversation his statement really didnt make sense so I asked him what he meant and he said, "Did you know I have wings?" I said..."What?" and then he starts to tell me he wants breakfast (its 7pm). He then picks me up, hugging me and almost drops me. I promptly pick up my purse and start to walk out. Horrible feeling in my gut

 

He follows me out saying he doesnt feel well and begs me to take his pulse???? I get pissed at this point (I hit my cat with my car 4 days prior. I couldnt find him for 10 hours. When I did I rushed him to the vet. His jaw was fractured. He went into sugery and now I have to tube feed him 5 times a day for 6 weeks until his jaw is set. Which is fine with me, I'm just so grateful he's ok:love:) I'm pissed that I scheduled my cats feedings and meds around so I could go to his house for dinner for this?! Dont mess with my cat dude...

 

He then begs me to take his pulse. I'm pissed but the nurse in me is actually worried so I take his pulse, its 88bpm. Totally fine. He is still rambling incoherent nonsense about me leaving early the other night and how that made him so upset he drank himself into oblivion last night....oh god

 

He told me could could channel spirits and wanted me to stay tonight so I could 'see it'....:eek:

 

I knew I was in a dangerous position so I take off and yup...thats my latest dating adventure

 

He's been calling and texting me. I'm running for the hills...never looking back

 

I'm not upset, I'm not berating myself for giving him a chance. It was 2 weeks...not much time lost...if time is ever lost. Once I saw the 'crazy' I took my leave. I really dont expect good things from dating anymore so this is just another story to add to the pile

 

All my OLDing profiles are deleted. I'll be taking a long, much deserved break. It'll happen when its meant to happen...I know that :)

 

For now I have safely escaped from the insane asylum :rolleyes:

Hey I would have taken the "I have wings" seriously if he meant he had spicy Buffalo wings. :laugh:

 

I am sorry to hear of your misadventure, and I am glad you got out of there alive unharmed and quickly!

OMG Dis! What the actual F!? And I thought my date with his cocaine confession was crazy ... I feel like this guy was actually on something major, so glad you got the hell out of there! Block him and never look back!

 

I am curious what spirits he was channeling (I am kidding) ... oh boy, one for the books! Well one day, you will be able to look back and laugh. For now, I am happy you are safe!

Hahaha! If he had meant chicken wings I mightve stuck around for awhile :laugh: Dinner and a show! :lmao:

 

He said that he was a 'fallen'. I'm assuming that means he thinks he's an angel that has fallen from wherever...heaven...???

 

But not only was he a 'fallen' he was a 'dark fallen'

 

Didnt sound nice.... :eek:

Dis, there must be an angel playing with your heart.

 

Seems to be the guy I tried to tell you he might be given a chance. He was God chosen so I am glad I was right... but not really. :p

 

For some reason I'm pretty sure you are capable of meeting someone outside of OLD. You come off as a social, and fun woman so take your chance in the real world and yes will happen, naturally ''when you least expect it'' (we all hate that sentence after a long dry spell from any meaningful relationship)

Hey Shanex, its good to hear from you :)

 

Thank you! :D I agree that I need to explore other options other than OLDing. My gfs say the same thing. Problem is I wouldnt know where to go or what to do. Other than nursing school, clinicals at the hospital, and the occasional girls night out, I really dont go out that often

 

If I were to put myself out there more often I really think I would have some luck. I think I just need a nudge and a direction to go in :bunny:

Hey joseb :)

 

I noticed when he would call me at night he would seem a little off...and I would have a hard time following what he was saying. His speech would be a little garbled but I just attributed that to him being tired from the day

 

He always seemed very emotional for a guy but I didnt mind that

 

Cant think of anything other than that

Wacko date that was, you did the right thing grab your purse and leave. Block him and tell him if he keeps calling you you'll report him blank to the police. Sorry to hear about your cat, and don't let this guy be the one to end your quest for true love. I had one where she said she was her age, she never smoked, never did drugs and never drank. She lied about everything 20 years older than me and I was shocked. That never ended well I finally put a close on that wacko woman. I have other one that won't let go and at the point to call the police on her if she can't control herself and she lies too much. I said your married go and get your husband tell him how much you miss him. He still calls her up on birthday etc. I don't that sort of life I am not your pie.. I am throwing the pie in you face and getting out of this..

That is quite the interesting story and oh my goodness gracious!! I don't have any strict issues on having breakfast for dinner, but the guy lost track on a basic meal and kind of lost track on everything. Was he high/drunk or just an average, home-grown nut-job? Run!!

Was this the guy you had a strange enough first call with that you hung up on him?

 

I'm thankful this turned out to be more an amusing than scary experience and glad you got out asap.

Why did you want to see him in the first place? He seemed pretty odd from your first thread about him.

I think a conversation that is going so badly that you need to hang up on someone is sign enough that it's not right to pursue, so Dis I don't believe you were over analyzing anything. In fact I think your main problem from what I've seen you post on here is you constantly second guess yourself and then you put yourself all over the map. How often do you hang up on people? I'm guessing probably not often. Trust your instincts when they tell you the guy is trouble, because if you had listened to them then you wouldn't have had to endure an even crazier (and possibly dangerous) encounter with this nutjob. You have to make a decision and stick to your guns.

Hot diggity dog, he sounds like my kind of date! What's not to like about spontaneity? Breakfast at 7 pm? No problem.Just kidding. I'm guessing the chemistry is what pulled you in at first. "Crazy in the head, good in bed," or so the saying goes.

Yes, this above.

 

My theory on things is if you are doubting a date enough to post on an online forum, then you need to listen to your gut and opt out. I know I have made that mistake many times and often I regret that I didn't listen to myself more. I tried to "settle" or change my expectations, and soon realized I shouldn't have to settle. If I am questioning someone before we even meet, then it probably won't end the way I want it to.

Holy S girl!!! A guy that off his rocker is NOT SAFE.

 

You need to start listening to your gut more. Our conscious gives us these nagging doubts for a reason. This one have been punted way before you ended up in his house.

 

I know you don't want to beat yourself up for giving him a chance, but really think hard about who you invite into your life. You had the threaten ex who was going through your medical records, and now this wack job.

 

I swear there are a lot of nice, sane, sweet guys out there.

Thanks guys! Totally agree! :D

 

But its seemed like every guy I talked to within the last 10 months were setting off my spidey senses and giving me a bad feeling and rightfully so

 

What do I with such little material to work with?

 

All my OLDing profiles are deleted...its like I turned into a dead end drive

Always listen to your instincts.

 

Let's face it, you're looking for the love of your life. That's likely not going to be the first person you meet off the internet. Heck, it might not be the 20th person you meet off the internet or in real life. You'll have / and you've had to date a lot of frogs and you will have to reject the people who aren't right for you.

 

Trust your instincts. If these guys set off your spidey sense, walk away. No one needs lame drama in their lives.

I'm guessing looks. Ted Bundy was handsome and charming.

 

But seriously, hearing things like this (from guy or girl), how does one ever keep trying.
