I seriously thought about writing a book about my bad dates. I am the queen of bad dates, actually. When I started dating about a year after my divorce I just knew I would be a nun.
I have no idea why I persevered because I just kept having one bad one after another. Lots of egomaniacs! I can't tell you how many never mentioned the way I looked but commented on themselves and how fit they were or something like that.
This one particular started off great! Perfect gentleman. Complimented me - a little too much, but I liked it. Held my door open. Very nice restaurant. Then the first shot was fired: "Now, you can order anything you want, ok?"
Well, I had planned to do just that. Then he started talking about his salary and money. Then he asked me how much I made!!! It just got deeper. "In a committed relationship do you think both parties should equally contribute..." I couldn't answer so he took that as I didn't understand the question! So he kept on and on. OMG I wanted to leave so badly!
Jake in Leather is another episode. And then there's Mum's setup with her podiatrist. The dance freak who almost broke my back.
Let's see there's the gay guy who wanted to make his boyfriend jealous. Oh yeah, that was a winner! Catfight in a gay bar, first one I've ever been in!
OK, I'm getting really depressed now. Any wonder it took me ten years to remarry!
