Ugh this would put me off as well @Stonegypse.. Sounds like he is solely focused on hooking up.
I would just make some bullshit excuse for Monday hoping he’ll get the hint. If he doesn’t, I guess you just need to tell him you aren’t interested in dating him.:/ (not sure how this works, I’ll let the more experienced people pass on their wisdom).
And I’m honestly not opposed to hooking up with the right person. Like, overall, I would prefer more ongoing connections, but the occasional hookup can be fun if the chemistry is right.
But I don’t like to talk about it before we meet in person and get to know each other a bit and gauge that chemistry. It’s just a huge turn-off for me when people start getting overtly sexual in conversation.I really need to find a way to get out of this date. I have no actual desire to meet this person. I’m still not sure why exactly I agreed to it.
Stonegypsy, what I would do is just block his number (but I’m rude like that). I don’t feel like I owe any modicum of kindness to someone I haven’t even met, especially if he’s being a creep.
Eve, I have some suggestions on free dates but they are pretty unusual. I once suggested donating blood together as a first date. We had Five Guys for lunch immediately before, and I vomited while donating (but still finished donating an entire unit!). If you eat first, wait an hour or so before donating. Shockingly, I went on to date that guy for months, so it didn’t scare him off. I’ve repeated the blood donation date with other guys (and without vomiting). I also love going on walking dates because you can talk the entire time. My new guy and I go throw a frisbee around sometimes. If either of you have a dog then you could go to the dog park together. Do either of you live in an apartment or neighborhood with a pool?
@Stonegypsy Why not be direct. Text…This isn’t working for me. I’m done. Then block his number.
He doesn’t have my number, but I just sent a tinder message saying “Hey, on further thought I don’t think we’ll click and don’t think we should meet. Best of luck to you!”
I think I have to wait until I know he’s seen it to unmatch him.
Donating blood sounds like the most adventurous first date ever. I don’t know if I qualify to donate blood. But I’m kind of a wimp and would probabaly faint.
Ewww, thank goodness he didn’t have your number. Thanks be to Tinder.
I kind of really like the blood donation idea! + good karma 🙂
That was Brenda and Dylan’s first official date on 90210! He hinted that it involved red and it was adventurous and she had no clue what it was or what to wear. Then he shows up and takes her to give blood and she was like WTF.
Um, yes I watched the OG 90210.
Kare everyone should give blood if they medically can! (I think you have to be over 114 lbs and be in generally good health, and not have traveled to certain countries recently, but depends on who you are donating to…)
You guys!!!! I just got home from the best first date I’ve ever been on. I’ll fill in details tomorrow, but my lips are numb from making out and I can’t wait to see him again. Veritek had a good date guys!!!!!!!
