Ok, y'all wanted to know how my date went....I made myself look down right beautiful, and drove an hour to meet this guy at a bar, where he does karaoke with friends. I get there expecting him to be waiting for me outside because I dont know this place or city, and he isn't. Ok, my fault, I guess I should have asked him to wait outside for me. I go inside and think I see him (hope it isn't, but of course it is) standing by the bar wearing black sweatpants, a dirty looking t-shirt, and a ragged sweatshirt. Here I got all dressed up for a first date, and he couldn't be bothered to put on what I would consider pajamas!! Ok, then we go and sit down and start talking a little, order our drinks, and he orders fries. Doesn't ask me if I want something to eat and once they get there, doesn't offer me any (not that I wanted any, but are manners out of style??) We talk and he goes on about how pretty I am, and that the pics on the computer didn't do me justice (ok, thats in his favor...) but then goes on to put himself down and complain about his bad luck in the girlfriend department. Then he starts telling me about his past girlfriends and why there relationships didn't work! Holy Crap!  In between telling me all this (and I listened, and nodded and seemed interested, even though I was thinking about whether or not I could fit out the bathroom window and escape!!) He was texting on his phone! He even texted me, while I was right next to him! He asked me about a million times if I was having a good time (I LIED my butt off!!) and he started planning the future! Wanting to know if I thought long distance relationships could work, and IF we became a couple how often we could see each other (he doesn't have a car)and on and on and on. By 1am I was finally almost free of him, I told him I would drive him home. We go out to my car and I discovered I locked my keys in the car. Crap. Call a locksmith, and get my car unlocked but it took them an hour to get to us. An hour Brian insisted on standing out in the cold (at least he gave me his sweatshirt to wear, but it stunk....bad!!) so we could 'talk'. That ment hearing more about his sob stories and past ex's. God! We finally get to his house and I drop him off and he goes for a kiss. I thought, eh, what the heck, maybe he's a good kisser and the nights not a total wash. No such luck. He leans toward me, but just a little (he's a really big guy, and has a really big belly...not actually sure how sex with him would work...not that I'm ever gonna try!) and then stops. I lean towards him , and then expect him to close the distance and kiss me already, but he doesn't. So I do. He can't kiss. It would have been more enjoyable to kiss a blow-up doll. But he seems to like it cuz he trys to go for my boob. Not a chance, time for him to go. I drive away, and not even a mile down the road my car just stops. dies. won't turn over at all. I call a tow truck, and it'll be another hour before they get to me. That was 2:45am. The tow truck driver got me home at 5 am. But apparently a bolt or something he needs to let my car down, has gone missing. So he's been out there over an hour trying to back my car high enough up the hill of my driveway to get the front wheels on the ground, with no luck. Why doesn't he just call his dispatch and get them to bring him the missing part so my car can sit on the ground?? BECAUSE HE'S A MAN!!! 
6:12am, I havn't been to bed, and I don't even wanna start thinking on where the moneys gonna come from to fix my car....will this night ever end?!?!?!


My car trouble gets worse, though. That stupid tow truck driver basically tried to yank my two front tires off the tow truck, and the bar turned sideways and did a ton of damage under the car, to the front bumper, the left side, left tire, and it's now leaking what I think is coolent and something else that smells like gas. I called the tow truck company, my AAA, and the police. The tow truck company flat out told me "oh I doubt that happened", AAA is waiting to see if the tow company fixes it, and the police told me theres nothing they can do, I should file a law suite. This day keeps getting better and better. I think I'm staying in bed the rest of the day!!!


NOW it's 9:18 am and I am going to bed to try and forget about my car problems and that I attract loosers.

oh Heather, im sorry you had such a crappy time! well at least you know this this guy is not the "ONE" for you, I am so sorry about your car too! that stinks! I know that it is easy for me to say but it WILL work out for you, just take it one day at a time kiddo! where you by yourself on this date? I thought your friends were going to go with you? maybe no more fining guys on the internet? Rest and recoup today, Tomorrow is another day! 

They were supposed to, but they all bailed on me. I was so excited about it, I thought I would go anyway. Now I REALLY wish I hadn't!!

OMG!  I am Sorry your nitgh was so terrible.

Good Heavens that is a bad night!  Sorry you had to deal with all of this.
The bright side is it's over.....
Be careful with people you meet on the Internet.  It sounds like you went alone and then you drove him home alone.  PLEASE do not do that again.  That is so dangerous!!!!!!!!  You will meet someone, give it time, but do not put yourself in such a risky spot.  Think of your baby before doing that.

So far as the car..........I'd be going after the tow company to repair for sure!!!!!!!  Go for a free consultation with a lawyer..

Good luck with everything!

Wow, that was the night from hell - and it just kept getting worse. YIKES.

Remember you have to kiss a lot of frogs to find your prince. Frankly I think considering him a frog is an insult to frogs. LOL

Skylar

I agree!!

Hey Skylar, I read my frogs this story and you are right, they wuz insulted! 

Mary 

Oh I'm so sorry that you had such a bad date!  You are brave girl, I would have walked out when I saw his outfit.  It is awesome though you took the 1st steps and I'm sure you looked fabulous.  Hopefully you'll be laughing about it next week and next date you will be ready.

Oh my poor Baby Girl.  I am sooooo sorry that you had to endure such an evening!  Girl, how in THE HELL could you kiss a guy with smelly clothes???  Ewwwwe!  If his clothes weren't clean, what made you think his breath was?

Now I am going to have to fuss.  Haven't you ever taken a course in Lady Beware?  You NEVER and I repeat NEVER go to an undisclosed location with a complete stranger.  Your morning could have been a lot worse if you woke up raped and tied up in the woods somewhere with no one knowing where you are. 

About your car.  You may have to get the guy who unlocked your car to write an affidavit stating that your car was not in the condition that the tow truck guy left it in and take that to the tow company and threaten them with taking them to court.  If they don't pay, at least you will have it for AAA.

I pray your love life gets better SOON!  Lawd knows it can't get any worse.

I know, I know, I should have just let his ass walk home after the way he acted, forget the potential personal danger. It was really stupid now that I think about it, but that guy was such a ***** he wouldn't have tried anything. Besides, I know where to hurt a guy, and after that night I would have enjoyed it!!.    And the kiss...his breath wasn't bad, actually...I just wanted a kiss. It's been so long, I think I miss little things like kissing and hand holding more than sex! But don't worry, I've learned my lesson!!

And I don't think the locksmith looked at my car, it took him about 3 seconds to unlock the car, and then he left. He was on the right side of the car, and most the damage is on the left. Also, my car had damage in the first place. This is the car that I got from my parents after the transmission went out in my car just a few months ago. After having the new to me car for about a week, I rear-ended a truck at a stoplight. Was hardly moving, hit a truck with a metal thingy over the bumper, and it did some damage to the middle front of my hood and bumper. The damage the tow truck driver did to the left side and underneith the car is sooo much worse than that, but I'm afraid that since there was already damage, they're not going to want to pay to get any of it fixed. I'm calling the tow company back tomorrow morning, then AAA, and then lawyers if thats what AAA thinks I should do. I'm hoping it won't come to that....I'm also hoping that they'll just give me a check to get it fixed, and then I can get a diffeerent used car, one that runs preferably. But if they fix the damage they did to my car, then hopefully I can come up with the money to fix the altanater (if thats the prob) I'm more upset about the car than that stupid guy!

Holy sh*t!  That was nearly comical if not for the very scary parts. Well, maybe the way you wrote about it was the only funny part.

Next time...if you walk in to that kind of scene...play stupid, very stupid.  Be like...oh this is the wrong place..nope, don't even know a Heather! My name is Mary. Mary Lou. Looking for my sister.

Honey, I hope your car problem will be unraveled.  call the Better Business Bureau - At least file a report. Call your auto insurance company and ask if they can help, too. If nothing else, you can try to sue them in civil court. Go talk to a paralegal. Those *******s!
