Oh yea baby
Awkward encounter
Second date with Ryan, a 30 year old stock broker who lives in NYC. We meet up at a sushi bar on Wall St. on the coldest freakin night ever! I trek from Staten Island to this place to meet up with him so you know Im thinkin there may be some potential there. Everything is going ok at first, not great but ok. The conversation is somewhat strained. So eventually, the blunt and realistic person I am, I say something along the lines of "You seem uncomfortable". He says he is fine. We continue at attempting conversation for a while. It comes and goes in spurts. There is never a dull moment, but sometimes its flowing and sometimes there are brief awkward silences. Finally, he says to me "To be honest, you are a great girl, but I just dont feel like we can talk to each other" No sh*t!. Ive been trying since we sat down to make this less awkward. Then he says "I have never been so anxious for the bill to come." Wow, I got dissed! I am kinda offended but curious at the same time. So I say "Constructive criticism is always good. What was it?" He says that it was nothing specific and that he just thinks our personalities are too similar. No way do I wanna be similar to the guy who cant wait for the check to come. I at least attempted to dispell the awkwardness. So at this point, Im pissed that I traveled into the city on the coldest night EVER!, Im pissed he wants to get away from me, and Im pissed that I didnt get to order dessert. So I decide to tell him that I have a blog just to piss him off. He laughs at first, then I ask him what he would like to name his posting since I usually come up with names for failed dates. He asks for examples and I tell him Ive used midget and bug gums/little teeth. Once he realizes Im actually not joking, he asks if it can just be called awkward. I tell him Im usually a little more creative than that. (Winds up, I guess Im not.) He asks for the link so he can see the other dating experiences Ive had. Obviously I refuse as I will not give this guy any more entertainment since I got dissed! Guess all the negative things Ive said about other guys have come back to bite me in the arse!
