I have a date tonight at top golf. So we will see how that goes.
More importantly, I passed my PMP exam!!!
Did he just openly tell you he has a girlfriend? What did he expect to happen?
Bullet dodged!
There’s a really good chance the blind date I’m going on Saturday is with a gun toting racist. It could go either way, but when the town is named after a gun part and many people proudly display Confederate flags…ugh. I’m hoping he’s one of the people that was raised normally (I mean I’m from the same area and didn’t turn out like that). Still, some of the stuff he’s said makes me think he’s a Republican and many Republicans in that area are Tea Party people. Not that I’m totally against Republicans or anything. My FWB is running for some local office thing on a Republican ticket because he’s Libertarian.
Rural south problems ya’ll.
Bringing up hot button issues when first meeting someone is weird to me. Idk, my concern if they were talking about the riots would be that their racist. That’s a deal breaker for me because I’m not dating someone I can’t bring around my friend circle.
The gun thing is hit or miss for me depending on their level of responsibility. My mom carries a gun most of the time, but she’s a cop.
On the upside, guys in that age group tend to not text that much.
But yeah, it sucks having people fix you up on accidental dates. If you’re not interested, then just tell him. There’s nothing wrong with saying you were kind of blindsided by the set up/not looking for a LD relationship/etc.
Of course, it doesn’t hurt to see what could happen. I don’t think the age difference is a huge deal, but my FWB is 15 years older than me. I know it’s a stereotype that women mature faster than men, but most guys I know tend to embody that.
Oooh a craft show thing sounds awesome!!! That’s so up my alley.
I wouldn’t mind if someone was dependent upon their parents and actively working to better themselves. I’ve been there. It took me a year to find a job out of college that wasn’t retail. I’d also understand if someone was finishing up their education or saving for a house. But I know so many guys my age content with living at home that don’t have a savings account and spend all of their money on video games, beer, weed, or a combination of the three.
I had a nice double date thing last night with my FWB and a couple he’s good friends with. He even brought an umbrella for me because he knew I’d forget mine. Then of course vodka and amazing sex.
And next weekend I have a date with the son of my mom’s friends. He seems nice enough, but a bit immature for my taste. He’s a year older than me, but my FWB and the guy before that are more than 10 years older than me. I live on my own and pay all my bills myself, so it’s kind of a turn off to me when a guy still lives at home, doesn’t pay for stuff, and didn’t finish college because he took the wrong classes (what?). Am I too picky? I’m going to at least go on a date to avoid a guilt trip from my mom.
And that’s about it. I’m more worried about my career at this point to be honest. I kind of want to change departments, but I don’t think I’m eligible to be released at this point. But it’s getting to where changing positions is the only way I can get more than a cost of living raise because our department keep getting budget cuts. :/
Okay sweet! I’m basically Milhouse in real life. Except my hair is platinumish blondish blue grey instead of just blue. But otherwise Milhouse is my spirit animal.
I’m logged in, but I can’t see anyone’s avatar or my own. It shows the generic one on top, but when I click to change it, it shows my regular one. Maybe it’s because I’m on mobile?
I miss my Milhouse 🙁
IF YOU BELIEVE IT, YOU CAN ACHIEVE IT!!!
I’m kind of delirious and need chocolate. Or wine.
