Believe me, if I were your mom you would have given the guy a chance.
You are from nyc and he is from Jersey. Why couldn't you have chosen a place?
Its not like he's never been to NY, Trixie. It's like what Joe said. He should have had a plan already in place. It was the way it was communicated, or the failure to do so. He sounded stupid.

I'm saying.
I 'gave it a chance' but then after how it went down yesterday, I was just like oh no.
I mean it's all about the person's perception, no one here heard the conversation

and I would be careful about the pot calling the kettle black, if I were you.
Interesting.
I will keep that in mind.
Nice edit.
Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome

Yeah...I think people show you who they are very early on in a relationship...he doesn't sound like a bad guy, but if this is who he is...and it doesn't fit with who you are...it's likely to get on your nerves down the line. It's better to notice it early on. Not to say we shouldn't 'give people a chance' or rule them out too quickly...but no use in trying to force something that's just not a good fit. I'm a planner. I plan everything. A last-minute kind of person just wouldn't be right for me.
The only way I'm going on another date is if John Rzeznik knocks on my door right now and professes his undying love. Honestly. Otherwise it ain't happening. :P
Wait. John Rzeznik as in Johnny Rzeznik with the arms and the sexy hair?
drivingrl: "Will I ever get to meet Gwen Stefani?"
kevinbeetle: "Yes. When her career washes up and her and Gavin move to Galveston, you will meet her at Hot Topic shopping for a Japanese cheerleader outfit.

What sort of bloke was he....dangerous, responsible, geeky?
Girl! He said he was going to call at 3. He calls at 3:45. Without a PLAN or a meet up locale! What?
Please.
Oy. I might as well just go get my cat now. Or a puppy. The only way I'm going on another date is if John Rzeznik knocks on my door right now and professes his undying love. Honestly. Otherwise it ain't happening. :P
I actually spoke to the fella yesterday...he was a bit frantic, and kept saying:
You made the right move ......if the guy is interested he is going to have a plan!

somebody say AMEN. Thank you! Geesh. This is what I'm saying. His tentative ideas only involved a 'drink' which to mean sounded like 'eh, you're ok' but lets see what I can get out of you...
and I don't do that, so, well. And I'm not getting into a strangers' car.
ok y'all are going to make me late for work! Thanks for the positive and supportive responses.

Completely agree with you about not wanting to get in the car ....first dates should be a public place with you both having your own means of getting home! ...............Now mind you if things work out really well and you choose to home together there is nothing wrong with that!

And I don't feel right when you're gone away
I have an 8 year old son and we're awesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
Yeah, I definitely don't have a problem dating a guy with a kid...I have before.
P.S. As a matter of fact, it's kind of a turn on in a way.

Eh...he's cute but not really 'my type'.
awww thanks, I usually am on time
I actually spoke to the fella yesterday...he was a bit frantic, and kept saying:
"I'm late, I'm late, for a very important date!"
Quite the frantic rabbit, he was!
"bloke"??!! You're killing me today!! Bloody 'ell!
no time to say hello, goodbye! I'm late I'm late I'm late.
I know that character...he seems like he's on something. :cool:
no hesitation
to make a reservation!
words by which to live!
I'm sure you are awesome
for me I want my own children. I want to experience having the first child with a man, like me giving him his 1st child.
to me a scenario with a child already involved has *potential* for drama
no offense intended to anyone with children.

I just wouldn't disqualify all of them. You never know. I wish I could meet a guy with kids.....I only meet kids
I wasn't being so literal - I meet single men that are kids
Thank God for that!! I was getting ready to call for an immediate lockdown of all schools in the area in case you were on the prowl!!
