DATING WOES

Feb 26, 2008 23:28

I hate dating.
I think it's because I'm too nice.

So, I think I went on a date tonight.  I didn't think I was.  I made a new acquaintance and what had begun as possible afternoon plans became evening plans because my day was too jam-packed.

This guy was just...well, there are few things.

Lack of confidence really REALLY turns me off.  And he just wasn't rockin it.  Also...he's kind of a hater.  Like...way too cynical and negative about the world.  And although he was a bit older than me, there was an immaturity to him that I wasn't hip to.  Anyway...I thought it was just hanging out...but then he payed for the meal..and then..well, it was just awkward.  There just wasn't anything there to connect with..and I think he really wanted it to...and I just wasn't feeling it.  So, at the end, I was like - so yeah, it's late and I have to get up early - which was true.  And I still had a few things to take care of at home before I went to bed.  And so I just started to walk away and that's when I realized he might've thought it was a date...he had that look on his face that said "really...no kiss goodnight?  umm..ok"

awk...

...ward.

So yeah.  That happened.  I dunno...now I gotta tell this guy I'm not into him..and I don't wanna be a bitch - but I'd be a bigger bitch if I made him think he had a chance.  Meh.

I did do something really stupid though.  So, on the way back from dinner we stopped in this bookstore and I found a book about that detailed the Black Plague epidemic.  I bought it.  i know...WHY?!?!!?!?  Most of my irrational fears stem from this epidemic...and I already know way too much about it.  Yet...something told me to buy it.  Even though there's a silhouette of a goddamn rat on the cover.

So...add that to the list of books I'm reading:  Disneyland, Steinbeck, and Black Death.

Good times.

Haters can Suck It!

life, the single life, irrational fears
