Prompt—Worst 1st Date Ever

Prompt—Worst 1st Date Ever

non copyright cartoon man and woman arguing

After a few back and forths with Mister Bump UK in regards to an answer I gave on Share Your World 8-3-2020 by Sparksfromacombustiblemind he piped up that failed dates would be a good prompt so as he was not going to use it I decided I would.

Here is mine.

I am sure I have a few failed dates. However, this one sticks in my mind as the worst 1st…

Tuesday 2.0

So I decided to kick it with Tuesday again. I felt like he was being somewhat sketchy but let’s be honest, he’s eye candy and I don’t mind me some sugar. So yesterday he told me he was in town again so we decided to make plans to go downtown and walk around and see all the beautiful lights in the garden by temple square. Now like I said, I had a weird vibe from this kid like he was hiding something before. I noticed on his Instagram before our first date that there was a photo of him in a truck (like a tractor trailer truck) with the caption, “truck life.” So I casually asked him about it and he said that he just did some contracted electrical work with the company and posted the picture but he DID have his CDL license and was considering driving for a living. I said okay cool, and let it be. Doesn’t matter to me one way or the other what his profession is really. So I go to pick him up last night because he said he could either borrow the company car and meet me down town or we could ride together. He sent me his location and I offered to scoop him on my way as he was just a few minutes from downtown. I get there to pick him up and ITS ON A HUGE LOT FULL OF TRUCKS. Like legit where people park their trucks, warehouses, all that. He comes out of the office building and I jokingly ask him, so which one is your truck. He laughed it off and said this is just the office they come back to do their paperwork after they work in the field all day doing their wiring work. I say, yeah, right, okay, and keep it moving. So we kick it last night and walk around down town, conversation was great, we had a lot of fun. So I say to him at the end of the night, where is your hotel? Because I am planning to just drop him off at his hotel, which seems normal to me, since you’re done working.. Right? He tells me to just bring him back to the truck lot place.. so I’m like okay, so you really are a truck driver? He laughs and is like no I just meet the guys back there to go to the hotel in our company truck. But im like, bruh im literally offering to take you now so you don’t have to wait on them, and if they’re done working why are they still there. (ITS PRETTY CLEAR TO ME YALL DRIVE TRUCKS AND HANG OUT IN THIS LITTLE PLACE NEXT TO ALL YOUR TRUCKS TO EAT DINNER AND SHOWER AND CHILL, ETC) But I digress. I take him back there and he goes back into the little truck driver office area to pretend like he’s not a truck driver. Im baffled. Like who the fuck cares if you drive a truck. And if you don’t, what the fuck do you actually do. So I head home and text him when I get there safely. We chat very consistently through text for the next hour or so. He tells me he’s at his hotel, I’m like cool, send me a bathroom selfie. As soon as I ask for a picture of him in this hotel he just stops responding. GHOST. He hits me up at like 1 am saying he fell asleep. I’m like word where’s my picture of you at that hotel? He ignores it and texts me this morning to say good morning. I text him to say it seems sketchy. He says how’s it sketchy I fell asleep. Im like oh, okay, sure, lol cool. So he says never mind I don’t want to know how its sketchy, have a nice day. I said thanks but my text didn’t deliver so he blocked my phone number and it turns out he blocked me on the gram too. Lol something hella sketchy with him. Im so confused and so curious.

Revival

I'm tempted to restart my blog... I've already had a few gems of experience since being back on the dating scene. It's been almost 4 years a lot has changed and a lot hasn't.

There's something cathartic about writing about my failed exploits and attempts at finding love in today's romantic, well let's be honest very un-romantic dating scene. Documenting it seems like a practice of self-torture at times but looking back at some of the shit I wrote I realize, 'that shit was fucking fucked up' yet somehow tragically funny. Initially, as my freshly single first dates went well I felt no desire or need to start up, you know because I mistakenly thought: this time things are different, guys are more mature, more grown up. I was blindly optimistic. I've come to realize little has changed and that if anything people might be even more fucked up, myself included.

Somewhere out there I know there are others of you perhaps going through similar experiences. Or if anything at least I'm bringing tears of joy and laughter she/he did what?! but perhaps realistically more dropped jaws of awe and shock she/he did what?! . So I'm toying of once again sharing with you strangers out there the reality of my fucked up dating life. 

For all of you that happen to stumble upon this that your poor friends forced you to read, you'll need a little history. I suggest browsing through a few of my previous posts on my old blogger site: http://missadventuresandmissfortunes.blogspot.ca/ I just don't have the time or energy to move my entire dating past to a new platform.

I suggest starting from the beginning. It's a lot to take in. Let me know when you're all ready and I'll see if I can muster up the courage to type up a few juicy stories. Comments of encouragement or any comments always welcomed.
