Ahh, I’ve finally got around to writing about my date. I was going to write about this yesterday, but as some of you might have read in my pulse I had to pick someone up from the airport and I got a lovely ticket on the way for almost running down a MTA police officer. In my defense, he was freaking jaywalking in the middle of traffic! I slowed down, but then I thought he was waving me to keep on going, so I did. Apparently he was actually telling me to stop, but I didn’t get that message. Fail! Luckily, it was only a warning, so no fine or points taken off. I’ll definitely be more aware of random police folks crossing the roads at the airport from now on!
Alright, let’s get back to that date.
I initially met her at the bubble tea shop where she works and where I visit quite often. We started talking after a while and we found out that we were both the same age and were interested in one another. She was pretty cute, so I thought why not?
The date started off on the wrong foot right from the get go. She had given me a street address to pick her up, but didn’t tell me her city. When I punched it in the GPS, it found the address to be at Towson. It wasn’t until after I drove an hour over there that I found out she was actually in Baltimore! Urgh.
After that big detour, I finally picked her up and we decided to just hang out at the mall and get lunch. I had other plans, but those got rained out (literally). It was okay though; the main thing I wanted to do was get to know her better, so what we did didn’t matter as much. Coming in, I knew we may have a slight language barrier since she was a FOB. As it turned out, the language barrier was the least of the problems.
Here were some of the “fun” things I found out about her throughout the date:
She’s a bit too high maintanence for me. Whenever she got the chance, she would take out her mirror and make up and go to town on her face. I guess she wanted to make a good impression for me, but throughout the whole date? Seriously, it wasn’t needed.
She dressed a little too skanky that day. Don’t get me wrong; she did look pretty good in her outfit and it would have worked very well had it been sunny and warm. That day, it was extremely windy, rainy and cold. Everyone else was bundled up for the weather, including me, so she stuck out. I even asked her before we left if she wanted to get a jacket, but she tells me “no, jackets make me look fat”. Hmm, okay.
She’s apparently prejudice against umbrellas. As previously stated it was raining like a mofo that day, so I offered to hold a big umbrella over the both of us. However, she refused it, telling me that she “thinks umbrellas are ugly and would rather get wet.” Hmm, alright.
She might also be a little racist. As we’re driving, I asked her how she likes Baltimore so far. She responded by saying “too many black people”, except replace “black people” with another term 0_0.
She had problems with food. Somewhere in our conversation, she mentions how she usually only eats once a day because she’s “too busy”. Later, when we went out to eat for lunch, she doesn’t really order much to eat even though she has not eaten at all that day. She said that she wasn’t very hungry, but I wasn’t sure if I believe her. Which leads me to –
She had quite the distorted view of her body. She was by no means fat. I would almost go as far as say she was petite, but she thought she was some hippo or something. She claims to have gained 30 pounds since she came to the United States 8 months ago, so she’s trying not to eat as much. In my head I’m thinking “damn, did you weigh like 70 pounds before??” There goes another check on the cons list.
She had some “interesting” pictures on her phone. While showing me her phone pictures, there was one picture that popped out immediately. It was of her kissing another girl on the lips while a shirtless guy was behind them, kinda holding them together. Bemused, I asked her about the picture and she told me “oh, that’s my sister and her boyfriend. We get silly sometimes whenever I visit her. All three of us like to sleep in the same bed together!” Umm…
She was texting her ex-boyfriend throughout the date. Granted, she said she didn’t really want to talk to him and he was the one that kept texting and calling her. Seriously though, could you have maybe hold off on that while you’re on a date with another guy? That can wait until after the date right? Actually, there was a reason why it couldn’t wait -
She was meeting up with her ex-boyfriend after our date was over. Again, she claims that she didn’t want to see him and that he wanted to give her back some stuff or whatever. I ended up driving her to the bubble tea place where she works so she could meet up with him there. Yup.
With all that being said, I’m gonna put myself out there and say she probably isn’t a keeper and I will most likely not go on a second date with her. Perhaps I’m being too picky, but there were far too many cons than pros with that girl. I might consider giving her a second chance if she ask me out, but I think I won’t be too disappointed if we don’t.
Oh well, at least I got a free bubble tea drink at the end =P
P.S. Here’s Dylan_Dysast3r’s picture version of my date. Well worth a click!
