We met up at 1pm as he said we would go for lunch and when I got there he said would I like to go for a beer. I was like' What, now?' thinking how hungry I was and how I hadn't eaten. Anyway, we went for a beer, I was being so careful bearing in mind I haven't drunk alcohol since Port Douglas!! And it turns out he smokes... why do I always get smokers??
Then after a while i kind of hinted at food, to which he said he never really ate, and by that point my stomach was practically eating itself, so we went off to look for somewhere. However, when we got to the place he was so non-plussed about food it kind of put me off eating so I said lets not bother. He asked if I would like to go for a beer by the river, to which I said fine so long as there were chips, thinking he meant nice riverside bar. But no, he took me to the bottle shop and bought a six pack for us to sit by the river and drink. Hmmmm classy! Anyway, halfway through, I asked him if it wasn't illegal to be drinking here (v different rules to the UK in Oz), to which he replied yes. OMG!
He was sweet and gave me lots of compliments, which I always find very hard to take. But he so obviously wanted to do stuff with me it was very off-putting. I could see that he really wanted to touch me a lot, stroking my hair and face and stuff. Eventually I let him put his hand on my knee lol!
Well, I got home and got a text saying that I really did have lovely eyes, to which I replied thanks and he sent one back saying 'I'm looking forward to getting my hands on you, um, I mean catching up again.' Ewwwwwww!!!! I ignored it.
I agreed to go shopping with him tomorrow but then he goes back to Adelaide which is where he lives thank goodness. Nup, no, not for me. Good to be able to actually say that, instead of trying to 'make it work'.
