#date fail

[glossedpersonax]

I went on a first date today, it was horrific!

I’ve gone on many many dates & I was yet to have a truly bad experience…. Well this guy looked nothing like his photos, was very short(shorter than me I’m 5’5) and simply just looked like Ed from 90 day fiancée…

I wanted the world to swallow me up

Throwback to when I went on a date and the first question asked was what 'my deal with Darth Maul was' 💀💀💀

Challenge #03465-I177: Missed Connection

The downside to being giant, intelligent, arachnid-like beings is that the ones you want to befriend so often run away. Even many of those lovely ones they call humans. -- Anon Guest

Sargasso stations are always "interesting" in the sense of "interesting times". They're either run by Nae'hyn who use them as retirement homes for decommissioned or retired Gravity Drives, or they are run by low-G insectoids. There is no middle ground.

Welcome to Pappus[1] Station. Bring your own gravity.

Low-G species abound here. They are the creatures that evolved in decommissioned hulks or strange nebulae, and thus flourish. Those adapted to more... traditional environments rarely stay. If they do, there is a special quarter set aside for their gravitational needs.

So i went on a date on Friday (both of us waited until we got covid test results back to see each other). I drove nearly 2 hours to go see this person after working for a good part of the day and waking up early to get ready. I spend over an hour doing a full face of makeup and getting my hair right. And I had to fill up the gas in my car.

Well she never made any comment on my makeup or anything, I had to be the one to finally be like “hey we’ve been taking up the waiters booth for over 2 hours on a $20 bill”, (which she ordered water for me and didn’t ask if I wanted anything else after I got back from the bathroom...) and kept interrupting me during conversation

And then I had to basically be like, hey yo I’m not comfy with that when she asked me like 2/3 times if I wanted to drive around in her car or go back to her house after this being the first time we spent time together...

And now it is Tuesday and I officially have not heard from her basically at all the last two days after we had been talking all day every day. Like the chemistry was off but at least I was gonna try and talk to her about it 🙃

Also I had a better conversation with the girl who was telling me about their rewards program when I bought Funko pops for my friend.. like I literally had more fun listening to her tell me about getting 10% off than I did the entire meal

So that’s my life

Okay, dating failure here❗️

Now I’m obviously not an expert at melting chocolate, but I also didn’t realize it was something that would be so difficult. I wanted to make chocolate covered strawberries for my wife this morning but instead of dipping them nicely I found myself smearing chunky chocolate over the berries and hoping that if I dipped them in coconut after it would cover up how bad they looked.

In the end I just fed them to my wife & we both laughed.

And then he blocked me. Didn’t have a pic of his face, had his location as “Alberta” 🙄

Blind Date

It was a favor to one of his fellow guards. It was rather simple, really: go out with his cousin Belinde for the evening. Aléssandro knew this was more of a blind date, but he would humor both him and her. After all, everyone could use a little company. He sat across the dark haired woman, who seemed to blush and smile at him on occasion. The two sat in a restaurant by the canal and their meal had been ordered. She looked around and finally spoke.

“Stormwind has changed a lot since I last saw it.”

“Yes, we’ve been through so many changes, but we’re survivors. I think our remodeling can demonstrate that.”

Belinde smiled and nodded. “Yes, it definitely does.” 

“Where did you say you lived now?”

“Feralas. I moved out there when I was a teenager when my parents went to work with several kal’dorei, and I kinda stayed there. We’ve been visiting this part of town lately, but since my mother passed, well, my father isn’t sure if he wants to stay over there. We may come back. Honestly, I don’t want to.”

Aléssandro nodded. “Wow, Feralas. I went there once in passing, but I can’t imagine what it would be like. Why don’t you want to come back?”

“I like Feralas.” She smiled and looked down at her water glass. “It’s not as hot as it is here and I enjoy the giant infested waters.” Her brown eyes glanced at Aléssandro and she laughed. “I’m kidding. I mean, there are a few giants, but they’re not where we go swimming.”

The knight chuckled and nodded. Their meal arrived and they laughed about the guards and her studies on the local flora. They ate their desert and when they were done, they took a stroll in the park.

“Look, I know you just did this to humor my cousin,” she said as she held on to his arm. 

“It was an honor...”

“Stop. Just...stop.” Belinde paused and turned to look at him. “Stop it with all this honor bullshit. You’re just babysitting and you would rather be elsewhere. You probably had to cancel plans with some beautiful woman, didn’t you?” The knight shook his head. “No, stop. I hate it when he does this. He tries to set me up with men from Stormwind to convince me to come back, but no, I don’t want to. Things are so much better back home. I”m sorry, Sir Mares, but I think I want to go home.”

Aléssandro watched her and took her hand. He kissed it gently and released her hand. “As you wish.”

“That’s it? You’re not going to say anything?”

“Ma’am, I could have said no, but I agreed because I imagined your stay here in the city would not be as exciting considering how long you’ve been away. Nonetheless, the choice is yours, just like it was when you agreed to join me. You wish to go home, I will escort you home.”

Belinde was rather surprised at his comment and she led the way to her home. He bid her a good night and walked away. On his way home, the knight saw several homeless people he gave a few coins to, one he had a short conversation with, and then walked to his him, where he was met by his dog. 

“Hey, Rusty. How was your evening?” The dog barked and Aléssandro fed him. “Mine? It was nice.” He changed into his sleepwear and sat on the bed with his prayer book. Rusty finished his food and jumped on the bed with him. 

“I sometimes wish for a different ending, you know?” Rusty barked and Aléssandro smiled. “Yes, I’m happy to be here with you too.” The humble knight lay back on his bed, opened his prayer book, and read until his eyes closed for the evening.
