So I was all excited to have a first date planned with this seemingly decent guy...he's an electrician with 2 degrees, he supposedly makes much better money than I do (not a pre-req, of course, but appreciated all the same). He seemed mature, claims to like NPR and reading, is handy with tools (good to have someone like that around when you have a 100 year old house), etc. But our first conversation was such a dud that I can't even fully convey how disappointed I was. Within the first 10 minutes he'd already mentioned his ex-wife's preferences for gifts, how cheap he is, how he'd had parasites, that he lives with his sister, and that he's a redneck.
Where the hell are all the decent guys?? I swear, I'm not that hard to impress!! Pick me up for dinner (wearing something other than cowboy boots), intelligently hold up your end of the conversation, and take me home!! That's it! If you actually paid for the meal or opened a door for me, I'd be half-won over. Jesus Christ, it's slim pickings out there.
Sometimes being single for the rest of my life starts looking better and better.
