The "tick" is back....

After talking to him about the inappropriate text he sent me (read earlier blog) he apologized and I decided to give him another chance. I mean you can't really sense tone in a text right?? I told him that I thought he was too busy to spend time with me. He said that he really wanted to meet me and to give him another chance. So I am...He has this week to plan a date and keep it.(he has cancelled on me before) We will have to see...updates will surely follow...

Twin Peaks??? Really?

Ok, so I get really excited to meet "Khan". He is cute, very funny, and has that bad boy thing that I dig. I choose Addison and he gives me 2 options:
Black Finn or Twin Peaks.
REALLY?? The 2 places I cant stand the most. I say Twin Peaks b/c at the time it seems like the lesser of two evils. After really thinking about it, I texted him the following:

"I am not a fan of Twin Peaks, and it really rubs me the wrong way that you would suggest it for a first date. Perhaps its best if we don't meet up.'

I thought that i was being straight forward and was proud of me for saying it like it is...

He however, did not feel the same way...
He said that since I chose the place that perhaps the REAL issue is me. He then proceeded to leave me 2 messages saying the same thing. I never answered or replied to any texts or messages he left. He then called me the next day to let me know that I was missing out...

Dating is not fun. If you are unhappily married and reading this...stay married. Perhaps seeing his mug every day may not be the most pleasing thing, but it sure beats a first date at TWIN PEAKS...on to the next guy...

I know what's wrong...

So, "Tick". We have corresponded via text, sometimes thru actual phone conversations, but always brief b/c he is so busy. I understand this b/c I am very busy also. However, I made the decision to be more open and I know that I need to find someone like that too. Now, here is the kicker. I can't quite describe how I feel about this, so I am just going to give a play by play of recent texts and let you come to your own conclusions.

Tick-Good Morning. I'm still in bed...wanna join?
Me-Um.., no...I'm still in bed too...so tired...
Tick-Is your bed comfy? What size is it?
Me-A queen..its super comfy...
Tick-So...did you say you are on birth control?
Me-EXCUSE ME??!!
Tick-Ha,ha...that was a joke...I left off the LOL...
Me-Um, ok...I'm going back to sleep...

This is an actual text that happened...WHAT THE HELL? Is this normal? Do people talk like this? I know it may seem like I may have egged this on somehow, but I promise I haven't at all. This was from left field. I am at a loss...

"Tick"

So I can't meet an Indian guy on Shaadi, so what are the chances that I meet one on match...

Ok, so he is cute. At least that is what his pictures on match show...

He is smart. He owns his own mortgage company and owns a bunch of other businesses.

He is sweet. His father passed away about 6 months ago, so he is taking care of his mother and younger brother. I like that he is a family guy.

He is funny. We text and talk all the time.

I like him. He is the poster child of a good Indian boy. Exactly who my family would want me to end up with.

So, what's the problem? I don't know yet...but I want to have an open mind. We have our first date tomorrow. Wish me luck!!

Shaadi...

I am also on a website called Shaadi.com. Its an Indian dating website. I have been on there for about 2 years with not a lot of luck. Recently I met a guy named "khan". He is funny and sweet. Best part is that he lives in Frisco (most of the guys on this particular website that i meet live in different parts of the country), so this guy seems like a catch. We just exchanged numbers and have been talking for a couple of days. He is really a lot of fun....so whats the problem? Who else goes on an Indian dating website and meets someone who is NOT Indian...ugh...but its not really like I date a lot of Indian guys so its not really that big a deal...
P.S.--My sister is the one that sent me this guys profile...so I am not entirely to blame.

So over "Larren", on to "Tay"

After our last date, "Larren" is so done. He even sent me an email to ask if our last date was as bad as he thought...if you have to ask..so on to "Tay" he is the texter guy. Great texts, but not so good on the phone. He finally asked me out, lunch at Cheesecake Factory. I was pumped, we met at noon. First off, his pictures on match.com were very blurry and I didn't get to really get a clear sense of what he looked like.
First off, he was NOT 5'8", unless the definition of "tall" has changed, this guy was def not tall. He was probably about 4" shorter than that.
Second, he was a little heavier than his profile said. I don't really care about that, but I wanted to know what to expect.
Third, he dressed really sloppy. Shirt not tucked in, frayed jeans, tennis shoes...I didn't want a suit, but c'mon....
So, here is the breakdown of the date: He talked, and talked, and talked....he never asked me even ONE question. Not even how are you....
Here is the killer: He declined dessert for me....WHY THE HELL DO YOU TAKE ME TO CHEESECAKE FACTORY AND NOT LET ME ORDER DESSERT?
That was the nail in the coffin. Sorry, a girl likes her sweets....see ya "Tay"...
