I had a blind date. Apparently, he thought I was actually blind because his pictures were from 100 lbs ago, and he was not actually in the lucrative job he claimed - he was planning to go to school for said lucrative job in the near future (read: unemployed).
I decided to give him a chance, because after all, I did go through the trouble of finding a sitter and actually getting out of the house. That and I really didn't have anything else going on. Sad, but true.
The entire conversation circled around sex. If I tried to steer it away - he somehow brought it back. And honestly, some of his suggestions were pretty damn good. I mean, I seem to remember a time when I enjoyed doing the things he was talking about. There were just no sparks there. Not for me at least.
He continues to text me about the things he'd like to do to me. As a matter of fact, just three seconds ago I received "I'm so horney for you Bailey." There are two major things wrong with that text. He spelled "horney" and my name wrong. Don't know which is the bigger turn-off.
I'm baffled by the recent rash of men who have been so blunt about just wanting to have sex with me. I was in a relationship for a long time, and am still fairly new to the dating scene, but have things really changed this much? Whatever happened to getting to know someone before you jumped right into bed with them? What happened to going out on actual dates - where you do some sort of activity (dinner/movie/concert/etc) before assuming you'd actually want to have sex with a person?
I'm very honest on my dating profile about not looking for a special naked friend. I'm an attractive girl, if I just wanted to get laid, I could. But I don't want that. I want to be loved, cherished, needed and respected. Of course I want all of that from a man who knows how to *ahem* treat me right.
A note about sexting. I'm all for it - just make sure the person on the receiving end actually wants dirty notes/pictures/etc. There's nothing more embarrassing than recieving a graphic photo at an inopportune time. Also, please use proper spelling. I don't want to have to guess if you're actually trying to be graphic or your iPhone is dirty and autocorrecting.
This guy was coming on so strong, I decided to call it an early night. I hate being deceitful, but I also hate being unkind. So I did the only thing I could think of - I faked a baby emergency. I feel awful about it, but I just couldn't bring myself to tell him that I would never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever have sex with him. And since we couldn't seem to talk about anything else - I can assure you there won't be a second date.
Other than that, I had an amazing weekend. I went to see one of my favorite bands play with a very good friend. We danced our butts off and had some great laughs. As always, we had a blast together. Then Easter Sunday was all about spending time with God and family.
I keep praying that God will lead me to the man He has planned for me. But until then, I'll keep the faith that there is someone out there for me who's interested in the whole package.
