Well... first coffee date done. All I can say is thank goodness I had a limited amount of time. Yikes. He was nice enough but holy cow...felt like I was at work. He is messed up. Nice enough but completely hung up on his crazy ex-girlfriend who sounds a lot like someone I would have met in my days as a child protection social worker. I suggested to him that he read the No More Mr. Nice Guy book and maybe get some therapy. A definite no. And for someone who has about 2% body fat and takes good care of himself, time has not been kind. He is five years younger than me but looks ten years older. Too much tanning, I think. Oh well... back to the drawing board.
I am still supposed to have a date with the country music guy. Given yesterday’s experience, I am keeping my expectations super low. I don’t know a whole lot about him other than that we have similar taste in music and he is my age. And he seems particularly concerned with what I look like and not about who I am as a person. He is super flirtatious. Says if he beats me at pool, I have to make out with him. I told him he wouldn’t be too appealing when he is crying like a baby after having his a$$ handed to him...lol. He thinks I was joking. . Anyway...we’ll see if he is more interested in who I am as a person when we meet but if not, pretty sure it will be a “thanks but no thanks” on my end.
Also had to block someone for the first time. Some 43 year-old guy on the other side of the country who is desparate to be in a relationship. He was surprisingly good looking but his mindset is, I’m sure, a deal breaker for anyone with some self esteem. He fell in love with my picture and would not take no for an answer...kept trying to get my number. I tried to give him some dating advice and told him he probably hasn’t found anyone because people can sense how badly he wants to connect with someone and it is too much pressure. Anyway...had to block him. Super thankful that he doesn’t live near me because he is definitely stalker potential.
Had three guys contact me yesterday who apparently remember me from high school. They all graduated within a year of me but I didn’t recognize any of them. Some people look really different than they did in high school. Not me, I guess...lol. Haven’t decided if that is a good thing or a bad thing.
Anyway...time to get on with the day. Hope all is well out in DB land!! (((HUGS)))
