I am SO cross. I mean REALLY hopping mad.
I had my first vanilla date in quite a long while on Monday evening and I am STILL fuming about it. Thank gods it only last two hours before I found an escape and got away. So much of the little time I spent with this chap has my blood boiling that I can hardly put a sentence together to even BEGIN to describe what went wrong.
It ended with him walking me in the direction of my car, but en route to his, him giving me a (not brief enough) hug and saying 'call me - yeah babe?” before dashing off. Without even bothering to see that I got to my car okay, without stopping for a “ It was nice to have met you” conversation – you know, the POLITE things you do on a date – even if you don't fancy the other person.
All he talked about was his job and his desire to build up a body to look like Arnold Schwarzenegger. Trust me at 6ft 6'' and 18 stone he was big enough already (and yes I'll admit to being shallow - that IS why I went on a date with him) but PLEASE get a personality - looks are not everything!!! Read a book! Talk about something other than you job! And most importantly open the sodding door for a lady!!!!
Just to make it clear – I smiled, I laughed at his jokes, I paid my own way and I sent the ' I don't think its going to work' e mail the next day (just in case) and have had nothing back.
As someone who works with the public – he had rubbish personal skills....With all due respect.

You could start a whole new thread on this - "How many hours of your life have you wasted on people you just really needed to throttle". It's a fact of life that some people you think will be ace are complete turds. I'm sorry you had to go through that. Mark it up as one you'll write about when you write the best selling novel about the comedy dates you've put up with lol (I'm certainly planning that one when the rellies are dead lol). | |

I once had a date with a guy who left me in the city centre to find a cab, he was so full of himself he made me feel nauseus. http://www.flickr.com/photos/jezzebelle/ | |

Nice that you choose wisely and humour people gives ye a round of applause I asked it once, "What are you doing on Earth?" It said, "Listen, if you're a mushroom, you live cheap; besides, I'm telling you, this was a very nice neighborhood until the monkeys got out of control. | |

wow. i never expect the opening doors and thing, just because of my sex/gender.
or maybe i misunderstood something?was it that he was generally not polite or those specific things?
asch, the persons without personality can go and take a hike. hope you find what you are looking for moreinches.wordpress.com | |

It was that he was generally not polite - opening doors is a mild example... walking out of the resturant while I was still waiting for my coat is another. The supreme irony of life is that hardly anyone gets out of it alive | |

That does sound like a shite date, and he sounds like both an arse and a bore as well. What a delightful combo! Sadly, it happens, we all have crappy dates. Try and take some deep breaths and let it go. He really isn't worth the energy. Even the stars look brighter tonight, Nothing's impossible | |
