leaving loser-land
ok, well, my saturday night date is whack. first of all, i show up looking pretty good (if evidenced by the guys at the train station smiling at me & looking as they walked by) & his face shows no reaction.
ok, no worries.
second, we get into a heated discussion about a movie (bond movies actually) or something & he points at me, finger 5 inches from my face & says "you are a BABY!" and then he says "and YES, i'm pointing right at YOU!" i tell him right off, that is rude, to point at people like that. and that i'm really surprised he called me a baby, that is inappropriate.
later on i came back to it again & said, i can't believe you did that. nobody has ever done that to me before. no apologies forthcoming.
third, he mentions having strong feelings for a co-worker.
fourth, i get in this a.m. to an e-mail from him, 3 paragraphs (long ones) long telling me that i'm uptight, edgy, and that i never smiled. references the baby comment as a flirtatious comment referencing my innocence and youth. (at 38.) never references finger in my face.
i ponder, and write back that i had a great time (which i did), but he is entitled to his impressions of me. and regarding insulting me and telling me he has strong feelings for a co-worker, i will make no apologies for any negative reaction i might have had to these things.
fifth, i now know why he is single, never married at 48.
sixth, as two-date diva said, i thank god i'm not married to him. or anyone so crass & clueless.
sigh. he was good-looking & smart though.
-----------------
so i've refined my list. the reason i'm still single is because i haven't found someone single, smart, sexy & NICE yet.
(revise. actually i have, he's just not ready to get married yet...)
anyhow, i digress amazing how hard that combination is to find!
i have no pithy, witty comments today. feel punched in stomach, still reeling from the wierdness of it all.
thank goodness i'm seeing single!
