DATE TWO
DATE 2
He asks if I am free the upcoming Saturday, and says we should meet at a place to grab a dessert and go see some stand-up comedy (awesome, I love laughing!). We’ll meet at a place in downtown LA around 7.
THE ACTUAL DATE
Well, I’m running late, which I hear is typical for a girl. I notify him that I'm running late and when I show up, he looks a tad upset. He buys me a drink, we share a dessert. It’s feeling a bit awkward because he’s looking at his watch a whole bunch, and we are rushing to get out of there so we can make the comedy show. OK gosh, my bad!
We get to the comedy club, have two more drinks, and laugh a whole bunch. But I know right away that I’m really just not interested in this guy. Physically, there’s just no attraction. He’s way shorter than I thought, I'm not really diggin' his style, and frankly, the conversation just doesn’t seem to be going smoothly.
Let’s call this guy Drat. I have no reason to call him this, I just can’t really think of anything else to call him. That’s how much of a connection I felt.
PRE DATE
He was actually one of the first to message me on match, and he asked if my profile was just some marketing gimmick or if it was the real deal. He seemed to have a good sense of humor, have similar interests, and while his physical characteristics did not quite meet my criteria, he wasn’t like, super awful either.

| Eh, you're alright. |
So we messaged then texted, like ya do, and the conversation was okay. Not exhilarating, but not boring either.

The drinks are helping for sure, but now I’ve gone and had three, and I still need to drive, but I don't think I can. Not yet. So we continue this date at another restaurant down the street. I hop into his car and suddenly he transforms into Vin Diesel.
On the streets of LA at around 11PM, he pulls up next to an Aston Martin, revs and punches the gas without warning. My head hits the headrest as we go flying down the street all of about one block, when we are stopped by a red light.
Ok, look. This is not Fast and Furious, he is not Vin Diesel and street racing is stupid. Unfortunately, I’m unable to drive home at this point, so I must continue on. But now I know for sure that I’m not interested. So I try my best to become unappealing. Let’s talk tactics. This apparently is not one of my talents.

| Driving home inebriated and tired AF may have been the better option here. (J/K Don't do that) |
