my date walked away (342)
mjames: Sorry but why would a guy that you are first trying to get to know want to be with someone who on their first date is already showing some anger issues and drama.
He was kind to you; I would have left right then and there. You need to work on your attitude.
Why would he stand up for you? he doesn't know you and is trying to get to know you and if I saw it I would think all of you were immature and psycho to be so out of control with your emotions.
You are very demanding thinking some new guy is going to be your knight in shining armor. I'd worry more on how you handle people.
He acted with class and was appropriate; you didnt.
Absolutely right. This is what I've been saying, too. thank you..He was kind to you; I would have left right then and there. You need to work on your attitude.

Conorco: Eh you forgot to mention you were rude to her when she declined to surrender the chair (u told her to get lost) , thats tantamount to misrepresentation, was it innocent or intended?
Seriously - I agree with you.------ This thread is Archived ------

stereotypes came from somewhere shame this thread keeps getting dredged up just to slam the OP but its funny how she is always defended again soon after the dredge n kick motion
fact is
there is no right answer
someone related a story and by the time it gets told a few times its mangled- and anyway its gonna be different to everyone who the heck cares?

And all would of ended up in jail,so what would be the point? The easiest solution would of been to just ask the serving staff for another chair.I just can't see the point in starting a physical altercation over a chair.

to me it comes down to creating a scene and the impression it would make on my date and possible discomfort that it would cause my companion - regardless of who was right or wrong it would not be a time that I would choose to make a scene - and that is the light I interpreted the events in - and in light of her date being apparently turned off
and I DID read the OP

can you believe this?
HE texted me a few days ago, asking me out again. I didn't notice the message sooner. If I hadn't had to recharge the batteries, I still wouldn't know.
I texted back a simple no, thank you.
leaving me wondering why normal things, like asking someone out for a date, or telling someone you are not interested, are done by TEXT.
I mean...
he knows my phone number at work
he knows I almost never look on my cell phone, because I don't carry it with me most of the time.
what kind of man is this I wonder.

Ah HA! I know......
A frightened one!
He didn't have the guts to ask you in person or by talking on the phone.............Cos, remember.......he lacks starch!
He also probably deep down....knew what the answer would be?

I find most arent worth the trouble and headache, give same kind of compliments like reading from a script like "i love your lips" or just full of crapola or in your situation just plain ..heck i cant even think of decent non offensive word for it. but have faith I truly believe there are decent ones out there , they are just harder to find. at least it was a lesson learned eh?

some men are intimidated by a 'strong' woman. It seems to scare them that a woman can stand up for herself, that she doesnt 'need him' to stand up for her. Its not that we (Im someone who stands up for myself VERY well...but not as 'fiercely' as I used to...I control myself verbally now lol) dont 'need' a man to protect or look after us...its just that, sometimes our battles are our OWN to stand up to, and its empowering for us to do so. Some men dont appreciate that...

Sometimes I don't think we'll ever figure some men out. My date from last night seemed to really like me, and today I've been ignored. I gotta shake my head because honestly its just not worth the games.HE texted me a few days ago, asking me out again. I didn't notice the message sooner.

here is something new to put down to experience.
I had a date last thursday. In my city, shops are open untill 2100 pm on thursday.
I had a date, first time, guy I met in real life.
we went for something to eat in the city.
it was crowded and I had a few words with a woman about a seat in the restaurant.
she became very ugly towards me....I shall spare you details but in short, I told her to get lost and turned my back at her and her friends. the rest of our time in the restaurant, she kept attacking me verbally........and what did my date do?
sat quietly, ate his meal with the speed of light, kissed farewell and walked away.
texting me he had a nice evening out but was not interested.
the knight had rusty armour and his horse was terminal I guess.
what a bummer.....not even one word to stand up for me...
I wonder if there is any hope left...
