I started talking to a guy a week ago and we have a date arranged tomorrow (meal and drinks)
He has been annoying me past couple of days ..I don't know if I'm just being picky.
Some of the things he has said...

I like a woman who makes a effort to impress her man,nice hair,nice nails,always looks her best.
Would you kiss on a first date? Do you think I have nice lips.

Then he went on to say tonight (trying to flirt I think)
What's your plans tomorrow?anything fun(wink face)
So I just replied "washing my hair ha ha"
He replied ...
"Oh you washing that hair to impress me,are you painting your nails too?"

I replied yes ...
Then he replied "are you doing that to impress me"

Then I just mentioned my friend is booked into same restaurant next week and she's asked me to take a couple of pics of the food

He text "oh so your only meeting me to get pics for your friend"
"I bet you will be making a run for it half way through"

Then asking if I'm wearing a dress for him

Is he just too much?
He's irritating me a bit ..
I haven't really dated In years ..is this normal ?

Can I just say .... ladies don't put up with this slimy shite texting

TurquoiseDragon · 23/04/2021 13:24

@walkigonsuncc

He's just text again "I can handle any other opposition,I'm confident not arrogant" "That's my secret"

What on earth is he going on about
I'm blocking him!
Weirdo !

He thinks you've blown him off for another bloke, because he's too insecure to realise that it's his own behaviour that's the problem.

I must admit, I'm wondering if he'll turn up to see his "oppposition".

This man is such a prick isn't he...

pictish · 23/04/2021 13:28

This has actually ended up quite amusing. Sorry. 😆

@Bluedeblue

I wouldn't go to the same restaurant with your mate - I think he'd turn up.
I thought the same... ^^
DoubleTweenQueen · 23/04/2021 13:32

Very odd and unattractive. Paint your nails for someone else x

RealisticSketch · 23/04/2021 13:36

'That's my secret.' 🙈😆😆

Men do my head in. I’ve had to block two this week. One after we’d had a really good few days chatting on the app and moved to WhatsApp. I gave him my number and when he popped up, the name on WhatsApp was completely different to the name he’d told me. Massive red flag so I asked and he said it was his middle name. I do t reply as I was out and 30 minutes later I got a string of abuse for ignoring him! BLOCK.

The other wee got as far as organising a date when he asked if I’d consider a 3 way with him and his FWB who was 20 (he’s 40) BLOCK.

I give up!

He sounds weird and sexist. You dodged a bullet.

OLD is great, but you have to be ruthless with solid boundaries.

I met my DH OLD when I was 34 and I’m currently sitting holding our 11 day old baby❤️

goldielockdown2 · 23/04/2021 13:50

What a tosser hahaha

AmandaHugenkiss · 23/04/2021 13:57

He thinks you’ve met someone else and he wants to compete. I think it’s a weird macho territorial instinct, they don’t want someone else “winning” over them.

Crinolinelady · 23/04/2021 13:59

Run as fast and as far as you can

Insecure, or arrogant? Sorry, I mean "confident".

Probably both Grin
osbertthesyrianhamster · 23/04/2021 16:25

I'd bin him just for not using the words confident and arrogant properly. But, well, the first time he came out with that impress me crap it would have been adios!

Planningobjection · 23/04/2021 16:49

Give him some constructive feedback for future.

wagonwheelsforever · 23/04/2021 17:09

NO not nervous! It's him thinking everyone's world revolves around him !!! Block him and move on ! Put yourself in that position as if you were saying these things to him .... it would make u either have a massive ego or being a controlling abusive date both need you to run away !

Bluedelphinium · 24/04/2021 00:02
