Ok- so I thought I was a rock star cause I met 2 men on the same night and both asked me out. So, the guy who took me to frozen yogurt on the low key 1st date was my favorite of the two. He was closer to my age and I found him more attractive. BUT- I gave "fancy 1st date" guy a chance and wasn't ready to eliminate him. So...I saw both of them a few times. Here's what happened...
Yogurt guy and I went out a couple times. Dates 2 and 3 both ended up just "hanging out" at my house because it turns out he hates his roommates and just didn't want to go home and he complained that he had no money because of student loans for law school. Every time we hung out he'd say good bye at the door and ask to see me again. I said yes each time except for Monday because I had a date with "fancy 1st date" guy the night Yogurt Guy wanted to see me. So I told him I had plans but could do it the next day. So I'm on my date with "fancy 1st date" guy and "yogurt guy" calls anyway. I texted him later when I got home and said I was out and sorry I missed his call but did he want to hang out tomorrow of the next day. He never answered, but it was late so I figured he was sleeping and would answer the next day. Well, the next day rolls around and he hasn't answered so I try again. I text and ask if he wants to hang out Thurs or Fri. Still no answer. Well, that's 2 times I've attempted contact and 2 times I've been ignored. I have stopped trying to reach him and he has yet to return my call. Why he's decided all of a sudden to stop talking to me I have no idea. Last we talked he was asking me out. Here's my theory--last time we hung out he tried to get a little more out of me than I was willing to give. After 3 dates I didn't "give him what he wanted" and he's determined he's not going to get it so he's done trying. Either that or he's just REALLY busy. Too busy to return my call where I was returning his call. It's a mystery. Or he's a slime ball. Or abducted by aliens. You be the judge.
As for "fancy 1st date" guy he lured me into a second date the very next day under false pretense. I didn't want to go to the "networking" event for business owners that he was invited to. I insisted I'd feel out of place and didn't want to go. He told me his Hawaiian friend was coming and since I used to live there I was excited to meet someone from the island so I went ONLY because he was pushy and I wanted a chance to chat with his Hawaiian friend. Well his Hawaiian friend "conveniently" was too tired to go so it was just him and I. And I was SOOOO out of place at this "networking" WINE TASTING. Ummm....I don't drink. At all. And he knows this. So he takes me to a place I don't want to go, I don't fit in, and there's not a Hawaiian in sight. To make things worse, when we get there he puts his arm around me and starts calling me honey and sweetie and talking about our future children and telling me he's buying a Ferrari or Lamborghini in the next 12-24 months and which models have a back seat for our baby car seat. He's trying to impress me with the business he owns, how much money he makes and the expensive foreign sports car I car nothing about. When he finally takes me home we get in the car and he asks if I want to go to his house and meet his dogs. Ummm...NO. One- the LAST thing I want to do is go to his house. Two- I don't like dogs. Especially not big, slobbery ones that weigh more than me. Ugh!
The lesson we've learned? Bars are NOT good places to meet men. No matter how cute they are, or how nice, or how normal they seem. 36 yr old men are single and hitting on 26 yr old women for a reason. And 27 yr old men who bail after a week when they realize they aren't getting any aren't worth the 5 min drive to get the frozen yogurt that you thought was so great last week.
I spent this weekend watching Twilight and eating Skinny Cow ice cream sandwhiches because, honestly, that's what I'd prefer to do given my other options.
