Okay, so my last post had to do with what a flakey douche Finger Foods is. Well this post has to do with what a bitchy douche I apparently am. Remember all the craptastic things I said about him? Yeah, well forget them (okay, maybe not all of them as he is still and will forever be one of the most unorganized people I’ve ever met). So I had dinner with FF last night and it was lovely. He invited me out to a wonderful (and expensive as shit) restaurant. Although I told him it wasn’t necessary, he insisted. Who am I to argue with good food? I got there before him and was waiting outside by the fountain. He arrived shortly after me, dressed very nicely and holding a wonderful arrangement of tea roses – arranged in a lovely little crystal vase. He had actually cut the roses from his garden and then run to Dillard’s on the way to dinner to buy the vase to put them in. How fucking sweet is that?
We had a wonderful dinner. We had many glasses of wine. We had dessert. We laughed, we toasted shit-tastic Match (otherwise we wouldn’t have met and NOT fallen in love 😉 ) I pumped him for information on one of his hasher friends who I’ve always thought was cute (in a 2″ shorter than me sorta way) but who wears a wedding ring. Guess what? He’s not married. Guess what else? They’re going to happy hour together on Friday. Guess what else? I invited myself to join them! 😉
For a big ole’ flake, Finger Foods certainly is one of the nicest guys around. Too bad I’m not attracted to him (I’d eat him alive, poor boy).
Friday could be very interesting if this pans out AND I get to meet redheaded guy (with or without his ‘business partner’). I guess it will be a good night to wear flats…………

Is this the same fountain were IG fell in love with you? Be careful…
ah hell Click, no – this is a fountain at a MUCH more ritzy place 😉 OMG! I think that’s it ~ if you want a guy to fall for you, stand near a fountain … eh, all that would probably make a guy I was with want to do is pee 😦
Bless yer ‘eart, my darlin’ 🙂
Yay! I’m back – been so busy, but now I’m reading your posts backwards – could be interesting!
He sounds a sweetie – was he a bit wimpy? And did you really want to eat him? 😉
Tiny! I’ve missed you!
Oh geesh, reading my posts backwards will be more annoying than they are read in chronological order. Read at your own risk! 😉
It sure was nice to get flowers though …… and no, I didn’t want to actually eat him 😉
Haha, this is a very entertaining blog. I am with ya on the shorter guys though, ugh I wish I didn’t care! And I’m 5′ 11″ so, as you can imagine, it can be a problem from time to time.
I am in my mid-twenties and newly single and just started a blog about dating. If you have time, you can check it out: http://www.datingconfidential.wordpress.com.
I think I’ll go explore your site a bit more…
Hi Renee! Glad you found my blog. You can come here any time if you’re feeling down about any bad dates you may have and I’m sure to have had a worse one to cheer you right up! 😉 Remember to try and not take dating so seriously or else you’ll just drive yourself nuts! (too many short douchey guys out there ya’ know)
I will absolutely check out your blog!
Umm….Ellen…love… can we chat? This guy is sweet… remember when boys were sweet to you? I know you’re built for war on doing some real damage out there, but honestly, I’d actually like for you to give a good guy a chance, I think you’d be amazed and stuff… hey if you’re not into him after giving him a chance or two to sneak up on some of your expectations, then no harm, no foul. I dunno….maybe it’s just me reaching out with some words to think that you need someone sweet. It sounds like a few guys were really losers and you had too much of what they were dishing…
Ultimately if you’re happy and you’ve got someone who “lites your fire”, then you know me, I’m thrilled for you….it would just be neat to observe you in romantic mode…
LOL….dammit..you made me say neat… I’m losing a bit of my hell-raising ways….

As neato as your response was, T 😉 I actually do go for the nice guys (then they turn into tools). I’d even say I go for nerdy ones, but there is no getting around attraction. I want the whole package; the holy grail. Nice & sweet & fiesty all rolled up into a package that I am wildly attracted to. I am not one of those people that feels that you can ‘learn’ to be attracted to someone. It’s either there or it isn’t. It just isn’t there with him. I’ve gone out with him twice and hung out with a few times since ….
I’m actually a pretty good girl usually; okay sometimes ~ Click was just a horrible influence on me when she was out here 😉
As I will be next time 😉
that’s what I’m counting on!
Grey…I’m with you: Holding out for my own personal Holy Grail…which probably includes a guy that makes old ladies clutch their purses tight…but who would actually help that old lady across the street (stupid, judgy old-lady…he should just leave her in the middle of the road for being such a bitch).
P.S. That was really fucking sweet.
P.P.S. Maybe you could start shipping your rejects out to me?
LOL Evie. I don’t think this guy has a prison record or any tattoos though, so you may not like him. 😉 I’d be happy to suggest that he divert his roadtrip back to Ohio next month thru the big ‘D’ 🙂
There’s still time to get him all tatted up. Heh.
and arrested……
Well…a criminal record isn’t a requirement or anything…it’s just one of those things that most little girls dream of when thinking about their Prince Charming. 😉
See I read “..My Foot Tastes Good” and I thought, “She can put her foot in her mouth.” Made me want to ask you out. 🙂
Jess…seeing that your current post is about riding a bike…that made me want to ask YOU out. Until I saw the ride only lasted .570 seconds.
Hee.
sorry Jess, not quite that limber 😉
