I just came back from one. The funny thing is I was trying to extract myself from the evening, somewhat gracelessly, as I couldn't really bring myself to feign being sick or make up ridiculous excuses at the moment. So I just told him my day is really full on tomorrow and that I won't see my parents all this week, so I'm going to go home to see them. In other words, I'd rather hang out with my parents than you. He asked twice if I was sure than asked if he could go watch a move with me tomorrow. Daft. Could someone really be so daft? However, that's not my best story. One really weird okcupid "date" i went on started with the guy complaining about how sick he was. So before we even met up he asked me to bring him soup at his house, cos he wasn't feeling well and didn't want to leave teh house!! Now it's not like I was pressing for now or never, I really have no desire to drag a sick man out of bed for a date. I thought he was kidding, found out he wasn't, then let on that I'm not the fucking soup fairy. Well he decided to meet then, and out of boredom I agreed. He then suggested that we drive around aimlessly, and I said no, you want soup, lets get some. He was so weird. At one point he was trying to read the menu then quite noticably let it drop so he could check out my legs. In the end he tried, to late, to recover gentlemanly points, by paying.

So at this point I think i'm dating for the sake of amusement and also in hopes of there being someone somewhat normal out there. I met one guy I liked who moved to Texas to live with his beachbum dad and I'm pretty sure if there are any normal guys out there, they're all computer programmers who bore me to tears. No more beep beep blip blip people. Tell me about your bad dates. Make me feel better.

I thought I had a bad date once, but it actually turned out to be a raisin.

Just read you post and concerned about its similarity to mine – see 21st century dating – what really is scary is that I used the exact same excuse that I’m seeing my parents the next day. Now that is madness! xx

Well I once went on this date and the guy was sooooooooooooooo fucking wierd and lame and it's not exsactly like I could walk away from it, I was in a different state and it was late at night. So to calm myself I started drinking and I guess I drank too much and passed out mid sentence. Food times.

Why did I just lol at this???? haha

I love your inability to take things seriously. Sometimes that is needed.
