First Date = EPIC FAIL

In the last week I have been asked out by two guys, the second was a bit more persistent, so yesterday at therapy I threw out the idea. My therapist didn't act like it was the worst idea ever, so last night we made plans to have a drink. My therapist said if the desire to date is there and you think its okay, then it is okay.

There is no rule, or guideline, I am not going to get in trouble with God for dating within a certain time limit. That was refreshing to hear. I think often I put so many restrictions and limitations on my life that I find my self pinned in a corner, unsure of how to get out. These rules I enforce are self made and honestly crippling, so the idea of there not being a black and white answer felt good!

So I went home, threw a bit of fit over what to wear and bolted out the door. I met a my friend Donald out for a drink before hand to talk it over an get rid of nervous jitters. I built up the idea of a first date to the point that it was a big deal.... I shouldn't of.

Well let me tell you... it was probably the worst first date in the history of people dating.

10 things that should never EVER happen on a first date {but did}

1. Ask to meet at 11:00 pm

2. Postpone multiple times, and then show up late

3. Showing up 60 lbs. heavier than your most recent profile picture

4. Arriving drunk

5. Ordering a sissy drink

6. Touching my leg and arm awkwardly and at odd times in conversation

7. Asking me three times if I graduated from CSAS, after I kept explaining I didn't go to high school in Chattanooga, but I am from Kentucky

8.Taking a dip of tobacco at the bar and then spitting in your cup while trying to still carry conversation. (Excuse me while I vomit on you)

9. NOT PAYING

10. Asking me to drive your ass home.

Well, needless to say, the dating topic has been returned to the back burner, probably going to be left there for a LONG TIME>
