So in the last few months I have gone out on 2 more "first dates".
You know what they had in common?
They made me happy that I am single.
The last one I went out with (F2) was nice enough, and cute enough. But not geek enough. And too white trash. Ya, I said it. When your favorite pasttime is drinking beer while watching Nascar. When the only time you left the city of your birth was to go see Nascar in the states...well, you get the idea.
Now I don't have anything against white trash per se, but I don't have much in common with them either. Plus I need someone a little more educated because I like conversations about odd stuff. Intellectual conversations are a must for me.
Other weird things about my last date are:
Her quotes:
- "You didn't call for the first date fast enough. You made me wait a few days and my friends made fun of me, but that's ok." (This is after I asked for her number and said "I'll call you early next week". I called her on a tuesday...)
- "You called me from your work number. Is that so I couldn't call you back?"
And she ordered exactly what I ordered. I ordered a beer, she ordered the same beer. I order some food, she ordered the same food. She didn't even look at the menu. This is not a big deal to me, but with the above quotes it all came off a little...well...disconcerting.
I could tell she was nervous. So was I. I have no problem with that. But telling me, on the first date, "You called me from your work number. Is that so I couldn't call you back?". Weird. Creepy. (In fact, I called her from my work number because she gets off work at 2pm, and it would cost me cell phone minutes to call at that time, so I used my work phone - I honestly never thought twice about it until she mentioned it).
The date before that one (F1), well...geeky. Cool. Love it. But also painfully stained and crooked teeth, and a LOT of nose hair!!! And she had a cold!! Yeesh. There was a drop hanging from her nose hair for several minutes. Terrible.
So really, the last few dates have not gone well. But one good thing is that I honestly feel like I dodged a bullet with them. I mean, I am alone, but it could be worse...I could be stuck with them. One of them being suspicious and analyzing everything I do, and the other one sneezing and looking like a party favor because of the copious nose hair.
So what do I do now? Where can I meet a cute geek?
What I am loking for, in order:
1- Kind. If she is selfish or stuck up, it's a major turn off.
2- Geeky. A little anyway. Likes sci-fi movies, or has played a video game, or something. Anything. Just a little. Please?
3- Smart. Goes with #2 I guess. I want to be able to have a conversation. I remember that PhD girl I met at a party and we got along famously. We chatted for hours. Too bad she blew me off.
4- Cute. Or attractive to me anyway. Does not have to be a beauty queen. In fact, I find a woman WAY hotter in jeans and a t-shirt with little or no makeup (and glasses!), then all dressed up and all made up. Love the girl next door type. Ok...I also like the "little black dress" (tm)....
I got suckered into one of those "find a fuckbuddy" sites, which work for shit (of course! what was I expecting?!). Oh well...$30 down the drain. Sex would be nice though.
So what now?
