Flashback: My Worst Date...Revisited!

It seems only fitting that I should share my worst date ever, since he (Arrogant Ass) decided to contact me again!

This was back in late summer, I met a guy on Match.com and we started texting that morning. We texted all day long and he seemed like a nice guy. I was at work, so we couldn't actually talk on the phone. He suggested we meet for a drink tonight in the city, so I agreed reluctantly.

After dinner, I headed into the city to meet Arrogant Ass for a drink. He tells me the name of the restaurant is D.....'s. I make several passes in the area, not able to find the restaurant. So I call him and he doesn't answer his phone. I text him and he starts texting me. Now...he knows I'm driving and yet refuses to talk on the phone but wants to text! Impossible in such a busy area!

He texts me "What, don't you know your way around the city?" What...did he really say that? He then proceeds to tell me that the restaurant is a different name but he isn't sure what it is called. I texted him " You are sitting at the restaurant, look at the F&%#ing menu and tell me what it is called!"

So I finally find the restaurant after getting the correct name, get to the table to find him already a little loopy on wine. He's definitely not my type, looks wise at all!

I try to make conversation with him, when he attempts to be "smooth" and use some cheesy lines. I asked him why he moved from California to here. His response almost made me throw up! "So I could meet you!" he said all suave! Ok...he moved here 5 years ago! Then he pelted me with more cheesy lines like, you look so beautiful in the moonlight and blah...blah..blah!

He went to the restroom and I truly wanted to get up and leave, but I'm just too nice for that! Instead I call my daughters and tell them to call and pretend to be fighting. He managed to find his way back to the table, guess I didn't pray for him to fall into the toilet hard enough! Then my kids call, screaming at the top of their lungs on the phone. I apologized and said I would have to cut the date short due to the fight. Ohhh no...he insisted, lets go for a walk, its beautiful out. Ummmm...you got it...no kids for him! I insisted I must leave, so he wanted to walk me to the car, meanwhile asking me at least a dozen more times to go for a walk with him.

Finally, I made it to my car and felt like I was in the clear, when he made a dive in for a kiss! I put my hand on his chest and pushed him away and excused myself.

Shortly after, I received a text saying that he had a great time and couldn't wait to see me again. I decided my smart ass side had to come out to make it clear to him that there would be no second date. I said, "Yeah...me, not so much! You were arrogant and had the corniest lines possible." He just texted back "Ouch!" A few months later, I received an email from him like nothing had happened, and then the story in the previous post explains the latest!

So, just remember...they always come back and ALWAY talk to someone on the phone before you meet them!
