Props to this guy for trying to snag me with a nerdy Doctor Who reference. But alas this is MUCH TOO much for me. Lol

[onlinedatingconfessions2-blog]

Well he had potential… Wishful thinking that because he's a musician that he somehow would be honorable. HA! This was our first conversation. 😐

Date #1

A few months after the breakup I felt that I should be putting myself out there to see what it is that I really wanted in a partner and future husband. I had heard nothing but good things about Christian Mingle so I signed up and made a cute profile. I was soon talking to and flirting with a few men who seemed nice enough but I was still pretty skeptical and really embarrassed to even admit that I was doing this whole online thing in the first place. I finally agreed to go on a date with this guy, he had a nice smile and from our conversations he had his shit together. Which was a total plus for me. We met at a local bowling alley for some drinks and a few games. When he showed up I wanted to laugh. This guy shows up in glitzy stone wash jeans and a skin tight white vneck tshirt and dripping in some department store knockoff brand cologne. He had his hair slicked back with gel. Tall dark and guido.. I’m not judging but this is not what he looked like in his photos.. He literally looked like he could be Pauly D’s brother.. I’m sure this works for some ladies but not this one. Common this is Oregon not Jersey. After a few games and a couple drinks he basically hinted at he was going home to go to bed and that I could join… Really how cheap does this creep think I am? I politely decline and we part ways. When I get home I messaged him and told him I had a nice time and I thanked him again for the evening. Not even 5 minutes later I kid you not he deletes and blocks me.

Hello and welcome.

I started online dating a little over 3 years ago, after a really sad and depressing 5 year relationship. I was engaged to a man who I planned to marry. We met in college, moved in together probably more out of convenience than the whole love and attraction bit. The more time I spent with him the more in love I fell. We just seemed to fit together. We were both graphic design majors and shared a lot of the same interests. I’m pretty sure the last stitch effort in saving what little of our relationship we had left went into moving to Oregon where I grew up and wanted to be. I eventually grew tired and lonely of being ignored by his incessant need to be playing… Dare I say it.. VIDEO GAMES. Now if he were to be reading this I'm sure he would interject and cut me off and tell you the bit where I was wrong blah blah blah.. That’s not the point I’m getting at here. The point I’m making is that we broke up and we moved on. That’s where my online dating “career” began….
