Lady A's First Dates

Post By :Lady A

1)i went on a date recently where my dates car wouldn't start, he tried jumping the car, no deal. we walked back into the bar we had drinks (we were about to go to a movie) i went into the bathroom and when i came out he handed me a shot and said "my parents are on their way, my dad is a mechanic"

i took the shot, and had some more drinks, had to make small talk with his mom. btw i had been on a "detox" that lasted like a week. and we never got to the movie.

2)i once had a guy ask me out to dinner (i met him via his mom-my co-worker)  i met him at a coffee shop and paid for our coffees. he took me to a thai food place, yum, and he inhaled his food-gross. this kid did not come up for air! so dinner was silent. he took my leftovers-ugh. when the bill came- he said "you owe...", 

later when he asked me what music i liked-and i responded synthpop-he went on a rant about how he hate electronic music. 

we went for beers, and i didn't want to go through the awkward money thing, so i just paid for them. when i was annoyed i looked at my phone and said peace out. 

he so went in for a kiss i gave him the cheek.

he asked for a second date:i said "umm i am busy"

3)i went on a date with a "FrenchFryCanadian" we met for Sushi in the UES.

i was so nervous but played it cool. (money+older guy=feeling inadequate)

mid way through the date asked me to take off my glasses. and then said " you have a lovely decolletage"

he kept talking about how uptight Americans are about sex, and how happy that i am not a typical American girl. i decided it was time for me to leave, since he was suggesting i go back to his place. outside, he pins me to the side of the building and kisses me. 

this is what is going through my head:

"wow, this is not a good kiss-i wonder if i can make the path on time, will Q's still have drink specials? i need to get back seam stockings for my costume, did i pick up my dry cleaning? i should have not had that last sake, i need more boxes-i wonder if that guy i made out with at the BBQ will be at the party-i hope so, damn he was cute-what was his name?-i should have called him when i went to the Dali exhibit, ohh must look up the Dali movies, i hate how MOMA gets so packed-wonder what good off hours are" <-- all that took 20 seconds

i left, we never spoke again. he sent me lovely emails stating how much he loved spending time with me. i still am creeped out.

4)on a first date with an ex, we went to a lounge and had some drinks-it was so loud in the back upstairs room we could barely hear each other. and for a good 20mins a couple made out hardcore on a couch in front of us. i was at a loss for words.

5)i have had 3 different guys take me to the same "date trail":

Dinner at Spice (thai food) on University (it just moved) and dessert at Veniero's. on two of those first dates  i sat at the same table-same waiter. 

for the most part i like getting to know guys in more relaxed-not-like-an-interview dates.

and i hardly ever have a great first date story.
