Something tells me I missed a good post....

**SunKneeMarie** · 04-09-2006

Oh man! I wanted to hear about the bad date!! Surely he's not a lurker.....

lolabella · 04-09-2006

No...thank goodness he is not a lurker!

It was Bad. The Worst! And I made the Cardinal Sin of PUI.

I was looking for happy stories about how you all met your signficant others.

I need my faith in this whole dating world re-stored.

Why don't you share what you can and your forum sisters will give you their wordly advice.

well, i have to say that i had one of the most AMAZING first dates yesterday. i went out to his lake house, we drank Hangar One Mandarin Blossom vodka on the rocks out on his beautiiful deck, and took his boat out for a cruise. once back on land, he made us some smoked salmon with cream cheese on garlic parmesan bagel chips to snack on. for dinner, he cooked out some fabulous medium rare ribeyes and a sauteed spinach/onion/garlic/mushroom dish. dinner was served with a fabulous bottle of Hess Select Cab. we then danced in his living room. didn't make it home until 2!!!

he has already called me today on his way to DFW...he's a pilot. made plans to stop by his place next Sunday after my flight gets in from Playa!!

so, don't give up Lolabella. i seriously was having my doubts.

This will either restore her faith or make her want to put a gun to her head. That sounds like a fantastic date. Good for you. Makes me miss those romantic early dates with my husband. Fortunately we still make time for our romantic evenings. Last night was wine, pasta, wine, dancing, more wine, and well.......don't want to bore you with the rest. Congrats A on what sounds like a great start.

As I was reading about your date I thought your post was going to end with "and then I woke up!"

Good for you A! Glad you met a nice guy...and he cooks...that's a plus!

By the way, where did you end up finding a room for your upcoming trip?

Me too! He sounds like a real find A'ndrea, and he should be teaching his ways to a large proportion of the male population! :p
Don't give up hope Lolabella, but at the same time never settle for second best

I'm a guy and I have had A LOT of bad dates

way back when.
I was in a dating service for a while and put an ad in a local
paper twice. The worst ones for me were when my date
would 'go silent' and I couldn't start or continue a conversation
at all. One of the stranger matchups through a dating service
was when I got matched with a girl 'friend' of mine -- I never
had the nerve to ask her out on my own -- I think we went
out for 3 or 4 months. But... I did meet my wife through the
2nd ad I placed. We've now been married over 15 years!!

I had to look up the 'PUI' acronym you used. I just didn't know.
I compared the list with the time of day you posted and it was
very clear.

PUI Pack Up Items
PUI PARC User Interface (Ted Nelson)
PUI Pilot Under Instruction
PUI Polyurethane Intermediate
PUI Posting Under the Influence (usenet newsgroups)
PUI Potentially Unwanted Installations (spyware)
PUI Primarily Undergraduate Institution(s)
PUI Programmer-User Interface
PUI Project Unique Identifier

I hope you find the right guy soon!
I read A'ndrea's posting - what a great date she had. Her date might actually fit the PUI acronym too.

Kellyk · 04-09-2006

Andrea! That sounds like fantastic date...

I haven't had a date like that in ...hell, years!

Lolabella, a friend and I were just talking a couple of hours ago about how hard it is to meet someone you 'click' with.
I haven't given up either, just taking a short break.. I'm almost ready to get back on the horse....so to speak

roni · 04-09-2006

I suspect most of us have been:

a good date
a great date
a horrible date

At one time or another during our lives.
