movie dates...are awkward...

Hi again avid followers, newcomers, future exes and my future husband,



After the mess of dates I had been on in the past month or so I decided to give the teacher another go around.

Movie dates... who ever thought they would be a good idea? Most of the time I end up just making out or hooking up with the guy anyway... unless in the theater. Come on people! I am bad but not that bad.

I could tell it was going to be awkward from the beginning...

What we talked about and I was expecting...
His house he was going to make dinner...wine...dine...watch a movie get our cuddle onnn ow owww

What happened...

Awkward hug hello... he had to pick up the pizza... fridge filled of Smirnoff ice and beer... no tv? That's right not one tv... instead... which I should have known was going to appear since he is a tech teacher... a projector that hooked into his cable box and lit up his entire wall. It was fascinating... the biggest big screen tv I ever saw....


So I asked for water (but I probably should have drank) and sat down on the couch with some pizza... he... sat down the couch from me. Which totally makes it completely awkward!


I can't stand when people do that.. I automatically start thinking do I smell? Maybe I eat funny... or chew too loud.. or slurp when I drink... Maybe he isn't interested anymore... or maybe he is just that awkward...


As the night progressed so did his movements towards me and my interest was dimming... was the movie over yet? I mean at least it was with Sammy L who is a brilliant actor...


More pizza...more water...


As the movie comes to an end he has another one... great another movie... he says think about it and goes to the bathroom... I think can I get my shoes on before he gets out of the bathroom? He comes out as I am putting them on...


guess that is for the night then?


Yea.. I am really tired but the pizza and movie were great. Thanks so much for having me over.

(notice I didn't say I had a wonderful time with you... or your great... or let's go to Vegas and get married)

And with that I went into the bathroom. Almost wishing I would have just left... I didn't have to pee that bad.. well okay I did but this awkwardness of the date was more on my mind then how I shouldn't have drank all that water (but I probably should have taken the beer).


I walked out the the bathroom and we talked a little before I left. He reminded me which way to go to get out of this neighborhood and then... then he reached into his pocket and pulled our a breathe freshener... A BREATHE FRESHENER! Like a seriously spray mouth freshener... even if he didn't have garlic it wouldn't have matter there would be no late night hook up. He walked to the door and I gave him a head turned hug that screamed you will not be kissing me tonight buddy...thanked him for everything and said it was good seeing him.


He said we should get together again sometime.


I responded with just give me a call...


I wanted to scream when I got in my car... not in the heartbroken tears running down my face scream but a relief that is it over this is going to be a blog worthy movie date experience...


that makes me wondering... am I dating this strange men to blog or am I blogging to find the right guy? I am going to have to go with the second one... however if I find the right guy what will I blog about?!


Alright I should get back to work now.


Xoxo
