Men....I'm told I'm too nice, stood up on dates, not called when they say they will, told I'm too big, teeth like a horse, am told one day I'm the best date they've I've been on and then never hear from them again, told I'm too this or too that.
"Hope springs eternal" is how I look at life, but this "stuff is really wearing me down. I juse humor to I deal with difficult issues, but sometimes, I can't laugh anymore.
And then there was the guy that had tourettes which involved one eye constantly winking at me, and his tongue flopping out of his mouth about every 10 seconds...
I know I've shared this one already, but it does deserve a chapter in "My Dates from Hell" book...coming soon to a bookstore near you!!
Abbrevited version... 1st date. Dinner finished. I stood up from the table and my scarf dropped to the floor. My date, being the chivalrous gentleman that he was, bent down to pick up my scarf.
His dentures fell out ON my scarf. Didn't even known he had dentures.
I have had some weird dates, but I think this one may win First Prize.
This is our 3rd date. He is charming, intelligent, interesting, a perfect gentleman. He invites me over to his place for dinner. I arrive at his place. His front door is ajar. It is dark inside. I nervously say, "Hello?" He calls for me to come on in and to "come back here".
Against all of my instincts, and my head screaming to me "Don't do it!"...I "go back there".
His was in his bedroom, kneeling on his bed, butt naked, pleasuring himself.
After a few seconds of surreal shock, I simply turn around and leave the house without a word spoken between us.
The moral of this story? I should've raided his refrigerator on my way out, as he hadn't even made the promised dinner!
I've been to Dachau...stood in front of the ovens. When I shared that with someone, I was flatly told that the ovens were so big because of the vast amounts of bread needed to feed the "workers", i.e. camp detainees, everyday. I asked if they were eating so much bread, why were so many starving to literal death.
I need a hug so much right now
This is so wonderful Polly. It is a keeper. Thank You!!!
