pangalactic should have fixed her up with a man I went on a date with! It's the one bad date that I know I brought upon myself.
I had read his profile and it was all about his idea woman. She had to be slim and stylish but sexy, she had to be organised but spontaneous, healthy active and outdoorsy, but she had to be feminine, she had to be family orientated without actually being already encumbered with a young family (Ok, that bit I made up, but the rest is all true ) she had to be able to assemble furniture, watch the rugby, make a good Thai meal, but she had to be independent and challenge [him]............. on and on this shit went.
So I wondered what on earth he had to offer such a lovely woman :-p I messaged him, very gently mocking him, to say that his ideal date sounded like a lovely woman and I'd like to go on a cup of tea with her myself.
Before I knew where I was I was having dinner with him. He didn't drink 'because he'd always been special' he told me. He wasn't terrible, I guess, he wasn't a pervert or anything, but he was very entitled! This pompous man, in his fifties turned up looking very jaded compared to his photo. He reprimanded me slightly for having worn sun glasses in one of my FOUR photos. He had three spots on his neck and he coughed his way through the date. I suggested the restaurant, a favourite of mine for ages, and he looked around it and asked ''is that music live?'' and I could literally see the thought in his head ''I'll take somebody else here! somebody slim but sexy, somebody organised but spontaneous........''.
That was the only time he looked animated during the date, when he was planning a date with somebody else. {eurgh} over it now
