And what if she did tell him right away that she wasn’t interested, to which he responded in a rather douchie way “Um.. that’s ok…I didn’t feel the connection either.. I was just commenting on the weather when I texted you. We can just be friends.!!!!!!!!!!!!#%*@^()*$

Seriously, all you guys out there, who are not chicken shit to take rejection, do you really want to be “friends” with a girl after 1 freakin’ terrrible blind date?! Give me a fucking break! I have enough friends and enough guts to say no. Why can’t he? Am I really misleading him??? Why would I do that? Whats in it for me??? And the fact that you think I’m full of myself and need to get over myself, well that’s just plain douchie too. First off, I wrote this column not to vent, but rather to humor people. I wanted to bring to the surface that guys like that are out there, so beware all you ladies!

No girl I know would feel different about the date that FIRST OF ALL WANTS TO GO TO JOHHNY ROCKETS ON A FIRST DATE, then superimposes his company for longer then a drink WHICH HE DIDN”T EVEN HAVE! ( I specifically said no to dinner earlier), then asks if you can drive, then has YOUR leftovers wraped, THEN IN THAT ORDER allows you to pay for half of it! ($12.50), and then keeps contacting you after she says no. In fact just yesterday at 11pm I got a text message from him informing me that he has AC ! It’s been 3 god damn weeks!!!!! How long does it really take for him to get it?!?!?!

If all you fine males out there still find me in the wrong, perhaps you deserve to go out with an equallly shitty female version of Carrot Top. Let me know how that date works out for you.

i agree. i don’t see what was so bad about this date. yes, they didn’t click. yes, he was mildly obnoxious. yes, he was unattractive to the girl. he also wasn’t Satan or anything. just ignore his texts & move on. iwholeheartedly agree w/ magdaf*ckingline before me. get over yourself.

Funny - same reaction here.

This letter highlights the whole ‘perspective’ thing. If he were better looking, she might have been charmed by his quirkiness - treating her equally (by giving her the option to pay part of her way) and by being down-to-earth (by not dressing up in a lame attempt to impress).

And as for the ’stalking’ thing - maybe he just doesn’t know she’s not into him.

I’ve had plenty of women not respond for awhile - after a first date. Maybe they are busy. Or dating someone else a bit. Who knows. But a number of times, they’ve come around - we’ve gone out on a second date - and then wound up in a real relationship.

It sounds like the author of the letter needs to toughen up - and open up a bit.

If you don’t like the guy - no big deal. But don’t make it about him. It’s you that is making yourself feel bad!

Aside from him being (apparently)unattractive, saying he had car trouble (a block is huge diff. from actually going somewhere), and accepting the girl’s offer to pay- I don’t see what was so bad about this date? Just seems like there was no chemistry. Sounds like she was disappointed by his looks and used it as an excuse to complain about everything else. Unfortunately for my gender I just feel bad for that guy. Just because you have a vagina doesn’t mean it should be treated like it’s made of gold.

As a gay guy, I’ve slept with plenty of neighbors and never really had a problem. Is it just straight people that feel weird about it?

Amen on not porking neighbors. Can get weird fast when the girl you were with a few months prior calls you at 6am so the girl you are currently sleeping with will move her damn car and stop blocking her in. Awkward.

And WTF balloons.

or, um… get over it? have a sense of humor? don’t seem so newsworthy to me — most def not in the “worst dates hall of fame.”

Uno Chicago Grill, not Pizzeria Uno.

I once saw Carrot Top at the mall, and a hostess from Pizzeria Uno ran up and hugged him, and he was on his cell phone and DID NOT GET OFF HIS PHONE OR ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANYONE WAS HUGGING HIM AS THOUGH THIS WAS SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED TO HIM ALL DAY, EVERY DAY. It was nuts, and made me sort of fearful that some women really are attracted to him.
